Evaluation of the location parameter in Weibull distribution of CTOD testing results of high strength steel weldments

In this paper, the location parameter δ_(a) in Weibull distribution i.e. the lower limiting CTOD toughness of high strength steel weldments is evaluated from Gleeble simulated coarse grained specimens. The Charpy-V transition temperature obtained from these specimens is transformed to a fracture toughness K_(IC) value at a given temperature using Sanz' relation. Then, the location parameter a is δ_(a) evaluated. The predicted location parameter arrives at agreement with the lowest CTOD value as obtained from thick multilayer weldments. The improvement of the fracture toughness of multilayer weldments needs the increase of the lowering limiting CTOD.toughness i.e. the toughness of the coarse grained zone.

A theoretical deduction for the location of neutral axis in intestine at unloaded configuration

The function of Gastrointestinal tract including intestine is to a large degree mechanical.The mechanical properties of the intestinal wall,and the tonic (sustained) and/or phasic(short-

The location of 5′-nucleotidase in seedling cells in Yunnan rice varieties and the change of enzyme activity after chilling injury

The seedlings of three rice varieties (Damagu,Ligeng 2, and Xiuzinuo) were cultivated at 25 ±1℃. After chilling injury (at 2~C), blacksediments of lead phosphate appeared on plas-

The Location of Singular and Inflection Points for Planar Cubic B-Spline Curve

Using vectors between control points(a_i=P_(i+1)-P_i),parameters λ and μ(such that a_(i+1)=λ_(ai+μ_(a_i+2))are used to study the shape classification of planar parametric cubic B-spline curves. The regiosn of λμ space corresponding to different geometric features on the curves are investigated.These results are useful for curve design.
