Crystal structure optimization approach to problem solving in mechanical engineering design
Babak Talatahari, Mahdi Azizi, Siamak Talatahari, Mohamad Tolouei, Pooya SarehIn this paper, the authors aim to examine and comparatively evaluate a recently-developed metaheuristic called crystal structure algorithm (CryStAl) – which is inspired by the…
Stability optimization for a simultaneously twisted and compressed rod
Vladimir KobelevThe authors search the optimal distribution of bending flexure along the axis of the rod. For the solution of the actual problem, the stability equations take into account all…

Prediction of load requirement and instabilities during end forming of friction stir processed AA 6063-T6 thin-walled tubes
Arvind K. Agrawal, R. Ganesh NarayananThe current work aims to propose a finite element (FE) simulation methodology to predict the formability of friction stir processed (FSPed) tubes by end forming. Moreover, a…
Finite element analysis on the thermal fatigue life of full vs peripheral array packages
Mohammad A. GharaibehThis paper aims to examine the thermal cycling fatigue life performance of two-common solder array configurations, full and peripheral, using three-dimensional nonlinear finite…
Comparison of flexural capacity of different hollow slab beams with/without pavement layer reinforced by steel plates
Long Liu, Lifeng Wang, Ziwang XiaoReinforcement of reinforced concrete (RC) beams in-service have always been an important research field, anchoring steel plate in the bottom of the beams is a kind of common…
Effect of high-frequency PCB laminate on thermal cycling behavior of electronic packaging structures
Lijuan Huang, Zhenghu Zhu, Hiarui Wu, Xu LongAs the solution to improve fatigue life and mechanical reliability of packaging structure, the material selection in PCB stack-up and partitioning design on PCB to eliminate the…
Parameter-free strain-energy function which automatically and accurately matches benchmark test data for soft elastic solids
Heng Xiao, Wei-Hao Yan, Lin Zhan, Si-Yu WangA new and explicit form of the elastic strain-energy function for modeling large strain elastic responses of soft solids is constructed based on Hencky's logarithmic strain tensor.
Study of the dynamic response of a CAARC building by the synthetic wind method and comparison with different approaches
Lucas Willian Aguiar Mattias, Carlos Andres Millan ParamoThis paper analyzes the effect that is generated in the dynamic response of a Commonwealth Advisory Aeronautical Council building for different types of power spectra. This…
Numerical simulation of MHD heat and mass transfer past a moving rotating disk with viscous dissipation and ohmic heating
Kushal Sharma, Sanjay Kumar, Neha VijayIn this paper the effects of viscous dissipation and ohmic heating on the fluid flow and resulting heat and mass transfer caused by vertically moving rotating disk are explored…
