PROJECT RISKS DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC AND THEIR EFFECTS ON DELAYS AND COST OVERRUNS

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted project implementation costs and caused delays across numerous industries. Various analysis found in the literature show that the predominant cause of project delays and higher costs have been people, material, and equipment movement restrictions, supply chain disruptions, and social distancing polic...

NUMERICAL ANALYSIS OF AN INNOVATIVE ENERGY DISSIPATION DEVICE

Application of systems for passive vibration control is an efficient way for seismic protection of structures. Systems for passive vibration control consist of seismic isolation devices and energy dissipation devices. Base isolation of structures is a concept where devices for passive vibration control are placed in foundations of buildings. Variou...

FIGURE OF MERIT STUDY FOR VALVELESS PIEZOELECTRIC MICROPUMP DESIGNED TO HANDLE LIQUID AND GAS FLUID IN MEDICAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL APPLICATIONS

Micropumps are revolutionizing compact and autonomous monitoring systems due to their portability and efficiency. In this paper, we present a valveless piezoelectric micropump design. This micropump distributes gas and liquid using a PDMS membrane that moves in response to a force applied by a piezoelectric actuator. The proposed design aims to ach...

MODELLING OF DAMAGE IN COMPOSITES USING SMOOTH PARTICLE HYDRODYNAMICS METHOD

This paper aims at the development and implementation of an algorithm for the treatment of damage and fracture in smooth particle hydrodynamic (SPH) method, where free surface, crack opening, including its propagation and branching is modelled by weakening the interparticle interactions combined with the visibility criterion. The model is consisten...

SIMULATION OF FLUID-STRUCTURE INTERACTION IN AN ARTERY ALTERED BY SEGMENTAL MEDIOLYSIS

Segmental arterial mediolysis (SAM) is an asymptomatic, non-atherosclerotic and non-inflammatory disease of unknown etiology. It affects medium-sized arteries and is characterized by vacuolization and lysis at the level of the media which can lead to dissection, steno-occlusion, or an aneurysm. In this article, a simulation of fluid-structure inter...

EFFECTS OF GAS RADIATION AND ACCELERATED FLOW ON SOLAR HEATER PERFORMANCE

In this paper, the performance enhancement of solar gas heaters is evaluated by taking the advantage of both radiating gas effect and using converged ducts with the accelerated flow. The analyzed solar gas heater includes the glass cover, air gap, absorber, gas channel, bottom plate, and insulation. The inclined position of the bottom plate relativ...

OPTIMIZING TORP MIDDLE EAR PROSTHESIS MATERIAL PERFORMANCE USING FGM MATERIAL DEGRADATION APPROACH

The advancement of technology in the field of human health plays a significant and positive role, particularly in the realm of hearing. In this study, we propose a novel approach for middle ear prostheses. We constructed a finite element (FE) model of the ear with a pure titanium TORP prosthesis, which we validated using experimental results. Subse...

LOAD-CARRYING CAPACITY OF PIVOTED CURVED SLIDER BEARINGS SUBJECT TO SURFACE ROUGHNESS PATTERN AND NON-NEWTONIAN FLUID FLOW BEHAVIOR

The present paper analyzes the Rabinowitsch fluid (RF) behavior on a pivoted curved slider with surface roughness (SR) with the aid of the perturbation technique. In order to account for the random roughness of the bearing surfaces, a stochastic random variable with a nonzero mean, variance, and skewness was taken into consideration. The averaged R...

FATIGUE ANALYSIS BASED ON FATIGUE FAILURE APPROACH AND DAMAGE TOLERANT APPROACH IN CORONARY STENT DESIGN

Over the last few decades, cardiovascular stents have emerged as crucial biomedical devices. Stents undergo cyclic physiological loading, which can lead to progressive accumulation of structural damage over time eventually resulting in a stent fracture. Considering the critical role of stents, it is necessary to assess their fatigue endurance and p...
