Effect of quality control parameter variations on the fatigue performance of aluminum friction stir welded joints
(Elsevier, 2019-01-01)This paper describes fatigue tests performed on 6061-T651 and 5083-H321 aluminum friction stir welded joints with dimensions and loading conditions typical for structural applications. Butt and lap joint details with various ... -
Finite Element Modelling of GFRP Reinforced Concrete Beams
(University of Waterloo, 2015-04-29)The numerical modelling of twelve concrete beams reinforced with glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) longitudinal and transverse bars was performed by the author using the finite element analysis (FEA) software ABAQUS. ... -
Fracture mechanics based estimation of fatigue lives of laser welded joints
(Elsevier, 2018-11-01)The conventional joining methods like resistance spot welding and arc welding have several challenges during joining of thin sheets of high strength steel materials. One of the main challenges is that application of these ...
