Abstract

This paper presents a methodology for the assessment of ductility and strength capacities in low-rise buildings. This method utilizes the characteristics of force-displacement for the lowest story level or considers the weakest story in any given low-rise building for its primary analysis. Calculations are based on two levels of earthquake motions, namely strong earthquakes (PGA=0.3 g), and very strong earthquakes (PGA=0.45). Failure mechanism for the structure is established based on three criteria which are: a) bending mode, b) shear mode, and c) shear-bending mode. Evaluation is then performed using a five step procedure starting with a: modeling the building, b) developing the non-linear properties of the model, c) strength calculations, d) ductility calculations, and finally, e) assessing the safety of the building under consideration. All these evaluations are performed based on a matrix format, which simplifies the whole procedure. Developed equations and step-by-step procedure are presented and described in this paper Satisfactory results are obtained from the use of the method developed.

Abstract

Supply chain coordination has become a critical success factor for supply chain management (SCM). In the past few years, the researchers have widely emphasized that cooperation among supply chain (SC) firms is a key source of competitive advantage. This paper is focused on supply chain coordination from the perspective of inventory management. Li and Liu [1] developed a model for illustrating how to use quantity discount policy by price adjustment mechanism to achieve supply chain coordination. We extend this mechanism to three echelon supply chain and consider variable lead time which has more representation of the real world situation. For this purpose, we will develop a model with benefit objective function for the problem. We will then analyze the model with and without coordination. By solving the proposed model, proper order quantities will be obtained. Finally, the advantages of the proposed mechanism will be explored and a surplus benefit dividing method will be designed.

Abstract

Although titanium has been recognized for its excellent bio-compatibility with human tissues and good corrosion resistance in some specific environments, little attention has been paid to the surface enrichment of the components by titanium. In this paper, titanium diffusion coating was formed on the surface of Ni-based alloy B-1900 via pack cementation technique and the microstructure of the coatings obtained was studied. Diffusion titanizing was carried out via pack cementation technique at 850 and 950 C for 3 hours in a mixture of commercially pure titanium, Al2O3 and NH4Cl powder. Microstructure, phase composition and concentration profile of the coatings were examined using optical and electron metallography, X-ray diffraction, and glow discharge optical spectroscopy. The results showed that Ti2Ni and AlNi2Ti were the main constituents of the coating. The formation mechanism of the coatings was also evaluated.

Abstract

In this research, crystallization of Fe36Cr12Mo10 and α-Fe phases in devitrification of Fe51Cr18Mo7B16C4Nb4 amorphous alloy was studied using X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. For evaluation of crystallization kinetics, differential scanning calorimetric tests were carried out at different heating rates. Results showed that two-step crystallization led to the formation of Fe36Cr12Mo10 and α-Fe phases in the structure of alloy. Activation energy of crystallization of Fe36Cr12Mo10 and α-Fe phases measured according to Kissinger-Starink model were 747 and 880 kJ/mol, respectively. Results growth mechanism along with the decreasing nucleation rate in crystallization of Fe36Cr12Mo10 and α-Fe phases.

Abstract

In this research, the effect of heating rate on oxidation kinetics of magnesium powder particles under non-isothermal conditions was studied. For this purpose, differential thermal analysis (DTA) and thermogravimetry analysis (TGA) was done on magnesium powder particles at three heating rates of 5, 10 and 20 K min-1 up to 1000 °C under air atmosphere. Also, in order to better understand the oxidation process of magnesium powder, three temperatures were selected according to the DTA curve at a heating rate of 20 K min-1. Then, samples of magnesium powder were heated up to these three temperatures with heating rate of 20 K min-1 and were subjected to X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) for phase and microstructural analysis. Then, kinetic studies were performed using some isoconversional methods such as Starink and Friedman as well as direct and indirect fitting methods. The activation energy (E) and pre-exponential factor (lnA) for oxidation of magnesium powder were in the range of 327-956 kJ mol-1 and 45-135 min-1, respectively. The reaction models for heating rates of 5, 10 and 20 K min-1 were obtained to be A3/2, R2 and D1, respectively.
