Books by Keyword: Strength Properties

Description:

The 46th volume of the journal "Advanced Engineering Forum" contains papers that present the research results on properties of carbon fibre reinforced metal matrix composite and multiwalled carbon nanotubes nanocomposite, conditions of mass and heat transfer under nanofluid by numerical modelling, strength properties and microstructure of sandcrete blocks incorporated with maize straws. The volume also describes the optimal control strategy for energy management of PV-diesel-battery hybrid power system of a stand-alone micro-grid and analyses the thermal and emission performance of in-house developed natural and forced draft metal biomass cookstoves. The analysis of the possibility of implementing the system of qualification and certification of the inspection personnel in the welding field will be also interesting to readers. The professionals, students and scientific investigators working in the various engineering fields will find this volume of value.

Description: This issue of the journal focuses on the advances in engineering science with special attention to the building materials and materials for environmental applications.

The content in this issue provides a modern view of the aims in the development of environmentally friendly building materials and solving the problems associated with environmental safety and enhancement and the achievement of sustainable development also the current issue deals with a new research in green engineering.

Description:

This volume contains papers that reflect the last research results in the area of building materials, natural fiber-reinforced polymer composites, modern materials and technologies in dye-sensitized solar cells production and chemical technologies in biodiesel production, natural gas processing, and environmental engineering. The collection was compiled from papers presented at the International UNIMAS Engineering Conference on Advanced Materials (ENCON 2018, Kuching, Malaysia, on September 12-14, 2018) and will be useful and interesting for many specialists from the mentioned areas of engineering sciences.

Description: The book covers a broad range of topics related to damage, failure, wear structural materials and parts and some technological aspects that provide the necessary strength properties of these materials. The collection contains the results of research and analysis of the fracture behavior of the materials that are subject to fatigue, stress corrosion cracking and extreme plastic deformation including analysis of the failures. Several papers focus on the microstructure of materials and prediction of their lifespan based on the knowledge of damage processes. The articles present various aspects of experimental, theoretical and computational investigations with an emphasis on the direct applications in engineering. The book was comprised of the papers presented at the conference "New Methods of Damage and Failure Analysis of Structural Parts" (September 10-14, 2018, Technical University of Ostrava-VSB, Czech).
