As a rule, the estimation of the residual life of a vertical steel tank does not account for mechanical properties of the materials and specific operation conditions.
The application of such norms to estimation of residual life of vertical steel tanks with surface non-through cracks can lead to unreasonably overestimated volume of repair works, which in turn increases both the maintenance duration and material expenses.
This testifies the reasonability of a differentiated approach to the determination of ultimate defect dimensions with due consideration of the tank operation conditions, stress-strain state of the structure, mechanical properties of the material, etc.
The wall material is steel A516-55.

Introduction Vibration isolators made of Metal Rubber (MR) material have found numerous applications in the supporting structure of electronic equipments or rotors in spacecraft's engine since they are capable of attenuating heavy shock and absorbing broad band vibration.
The following conclusions can be made: The dry friction damping was the dominant mechanism for energy dissipation of MR material, which was generated by relative slip between adjacent wires.

This paper adopts polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) as raw materials, oligomeric methyl triethoxysilane as crosslinking agent, replace the traditional crosslinking agent-ethyl orthosilicate, produced dense pervaporation membrane and study the effect of treatment of wastewater containing phenol. 1 Instruments and Drugs 1.1 Instruments 90-3 Thermostatic bidirectional magnetic stirrer, ZK-82B Vacuum drying oven, AW120 electronic balance (SHIMADZU), TV-1810 UV visible spectrophotometer, LHS-150SC constant temperature and humidity box, Fourier transform infrared-Raman spectroscopy, JY-82 contact angle measurement instrument, Pervaporation device, substrate, homemade scraper. 1.2 Drugs Poly dimethyl siloxane (PDMS), methyl triethoxysilane (Sinopharm chemical reagent company), dibutyltin dilaurate, toluene, phenol. 2 Experiment 2.1 Preparation of pervaporation membrane The PDMS prepolymer, toluene as solvent, methyl triethoxy silane cross-linking agent, dibutyltin dilaurate as catalyst according
Wastewater containing phenol with different concentrations prepared from phenol and distilled water, liquid material is heater by the heater through the feed pump, enters the membrane chamber, the downstream component is collected by a liquid nitrogen cold trap to condensation, residual liquid cyclic back to the liquid tank, pumping vacuum control the pressure of the downstream, the effective area of the membrane is 1.6×10-2 m2. 2.2 FT-IR Characterization Fig.1 The FR-IR spectrum of PDMS membrane The Infrared Spectroscopy (IR) of the PDMS pervaporation membranes is shown in Fig.1.
The experiment investigates the effects of solution in different proportions of the crosslinking agent in certain conditions on the membrane separation performance. 2.4 Effect of operating conditions on the treatment effect In addition to the membrane material and crosslinking agent, the separation effect is also related to operating conditions, such as: the feed temperature, concentration and velocity, separation pressure, parameter optimization of membrane can be confirm by the further study of the effects of operating conditions on the membrane performances. 3 Results and Discussion The water contact angle of PDMS pervaporation membrane is 98.2°, the contact angle of phenol is 34.6°, contact angle of phenol is obviously smaller than the contact angle of water infiltration, Prove that the membrane has a strong hydrophobicity, high selective for phenol.
When the temperature of the feed was 60°C, the flow rate was 0.6L/min, the downstream side pressure was 6KPa, with the increase of the concentration of phenol in raw material, the permeation flux and separation factor increased.

Introduction Cellular polymers like silicone rubber foams and polyurethane foams have excellent properties, such as high temperature resistance, corrosion proofing, oxidation resistance and large deformations, and are usually used as cushions, padding, and packaging materials.
Moreover, two parameter Mooney-Rivlin strain energy potential model is introduced to characterize the hyperelasticity of the solid from which the foams are made, (1) where W is strain energy function, C1 and C2 are material parameters, and I 1 and I 2 are the first and second invariant of the right Cauchy-Green strain tensor.

Holmes [5],suggested replacing the panel with an equivalent diagonal strut of the same material, having a width w equal to 1/3 of the infill diagonal length.
The basic analytical study was carried out on a single-storey single-bay infilled frame, of which the materials are assumed linear elastic.
For the considered infilled frame, a small load of 10kN was applied to ensure the materials behave elastically but no plastic strain was allowed.
