Evaluation of factors contributing to the failure of cast iron water mains

Creator:: Takahashi, Gilbert Tamaji
Abstract:: An evaluation was made of factors contributing to the service failure of a 12 inch diameter cast iron water pipe in Pendleton, Oregon. The quality of the pipe was found to be acceptable when compared to the acceptance limits established by the American National Standards Institute, Inc. However it exhibited...

Control of peak stresses in tensile testing machine components subjected to shock loading

Creator:: Mitchell, Jack Alan
Abstract:: The mechanical properties of materials at cryogenic temperatures have been the subject of increasing interest during the past few years, although very little actual materials testing has been done at extremely low temperatures because of the high cost and low heat of vaporaization of liquid helium. Recently, the Department of...

Catastrophic propagation of ductile cracks in metallic foils

Creator:: Elliott, Leonard Thomas
Abstract:: The sudden failure of metal structures under load, which has been a design problem for many years, is characterized by a crack propagation rate which approaches the speed of sound in the material. These failures, which are often known as catastrophic fractures, may be divided into two types which depend...

Particulate and total gaseous hydrocarbon emissions from a gas heated veneer dryer

Creator:: Shigehara, Roger T.
Abstract:: A source test was conducted to determine the particulate and the total gaseous hydrocarbon emissions from a gas heated veneer dryer. Samples were taken on eight separate days from the exhaust stacks while the dryer was processing Douglas fir veneer. Of the eight days, three was used to determine the...

Wind tunnel simulation and field measurements of flow over a coastal headland

Creator:: Brownlow, Roger West
Abstract:: An experimental study was made of the average and turbulent wind characteristics of the flow over a model of a coastal headland. The scale of the model was 300:1, corresponding to a prototype size of 500 m. The data for validation of the model study was obtained from instruments mounted...

Modes of vibration of inextensible cables suspended from two points

Creator:: Thompson, Roger S.
Abstract:: The equations of motion of a suspended, inextensible cable in the absence of damping are studied. A method is developed and illustrated for determining the frequencies and mode shapes for small oscillations about the equilibrium configuration. With the introduction of a new variable, the fourth order equation governing tangential displacement...

Arc distribution and motion during the vacuum arc remelting process as detected with a magnetostatic approach

Creator:: Woodside, Rigel
Abstract:: Currently, the temporal arc distribution across the ingot during the vacuum arc remelting (VAR) process is not a known or monitored parameter. It is has previously been shown that arcs can spatially constrict during VAR, and this constriction can lead to undesired defects in the material. Additionally, correct accounting for...

REHand: ReEngineering the human hand with differential mechanisms to improve hand function after tendon-transfer surgeries

Creator:: Mardula, Katherine L
Abstract:: Since the 1970s, tendon-transfer surgeries have been routinely performed for a variety of conditions such as stroke, paralysis, spinal atrophy, trauma, and birth defects. The surgery involves rerouting a tendon from a disabled muscle and directly suturing it to a functioning muscle in order to partially restore hand function. This...
