This paper is a study of the fatigue properties of the alloy
columbium - one percent zirconium in reverse bending. This paper
also is a design study of a satisfactory plate reverse bending fatigue
specimen configuration for use with the General Electric PRB pneumatic
testing machine. Selected tensile tests were...
The concept of a Critical Path Scheduling Tableau is introduced
as an integrating tool for solving industrial engineering problems
involving the application of transitive graphs.
The Tableau is a combination of a precedence matrix and a
boundary time table which may be used to construct graphical representations
for critical path...
An experimental investigation has been made of the effect of
vibration on heat transfer from a cylinder in crossflow. The
cylinder used was 3/16-inch in diameter and was sinusoidally
oscillated in the vertical direction by a mechanical drive mechanism
while immersed in an open water channel. Nominal amplitude
ratios, a/d,...
The purpose of this work was to design a system for measuring
the velocity of a powder actuated fastener or drivepin during penetration.
This system would provide a tool for further investigation
into drivepin penetration characteristics. The main characteristic
of interest is the instantaneous acceleration from which the forces
on...
