Mechanical joining processes provide various advantages over conventional fusion welding of metallic components such as shorter cycle times, little or no heat input and reduced need for subsequent surface finishing operations. ...

Each material has its own advantages and disadvantages in terms of its mechanical, chemical and physical properties. Metallic materials are comparatively ductile and easy to process. Fibre reinforced plastics are very stiff ...

Numerical modelling of chip formation is important for a better understanding thus for improvement of the high speed metal cutting process. The objective of this work is to develop a meshfree numerical simulation framework ...

A finite volume model is developed for modelling the behaviour of the seabed underneath monolithic breakwaters. The fully coupled and fully dynamic Biot's governing equations are solved in a segregated approach. Two ...

Hot forming as a coupled thermo-mechanical process comprises of numerous material phenomena with a corresponding impact on the material behavior during and after the forming process. Within the subsequent heat treatment, ...

Im postindustriellen Zeitalter spielen Konversionsstrategien, die industrielle Architektur als räumliche Ressource erschließen, eine entscheidende Rolle in der Entwicklung unserer städtischen Habitate. Die Transformation ...

The current work investigates the impact of pre-deformation temperatures on the microstructure evolution and the subsequent cyclic stress-strain response of high-manganese steel showing twinning-induced plasticity (TWIP) ...
