  • Behavior of gypsum-sheathed cold-formed steel wall stud panels

    Creator:
    Lee, Young-ki
    Abstract:
    This study consists of three parts: 1) Part A: Limiting Height Evaluation for Composite Wall Tests, 2) Part B: Mid-Span Deflection Evaluation for Composite Wall Tests, and 3) Part C: Nominal Axial Strength Evaluation for Wall-Braced Wall Stud Columns. The purpose of Part A is to develop experimentally-based limiting heights...

  • Cooling rate limitations in the diffusion bonding of large microchannel arrays

    Creator:
    Lingam, Gopi K.
    Abstract:
    A significant barrier to the diffusion bonding of large (i.e. 600 mm) microchannel devices is the large capital investment required to setup production. This large capital investment extends from long heating and cooling cycles leading to poor production capacities. Empirical studies in industry have shown that cooling rate is limited...
