25. THERMAL ENVIRONMENT OF TABLE GRAPE PACKING HOUSES IN THE SÃO FRANCISCO VALLEY
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to characterize the thermal environment of the sorting and packing sectors of small, medium and large packing houses in the São Francisco Valley, Northeast of Brazil. Micrometeorological data were monitored every 15 minutes for 20 days during winter 2014 and summer 2015. The parameters evaluated were air temperature (°C),

26. Dynamic Analysis of Imperfect FGM Circular Cylindrical Shells Reinforced by FGM Stiffener System Using Third Order Shear Deformation Theory in Term of Displacement Components
Abstract This paper presents dynamic analysis of an eccentrically stiffened imperfect circular cylindrical shells made of functionally graded materials (FGM), subjected to axial compressive load and filled inside by elastic foundations in thermal environments by analytical method. Shells are reinforced by FGM stringers and rings taking into account thermal e

27. Thermal Distortion Analysis of Inflatable Antenna Structures Considering Inflation Gas
ABSTRACT This paper addresses the static distortion and stress analysis of inflatable antenna structures subjected to a thermal load, which is a very important type of load experienced by such structures during service in orbit. Non-linear finite element analysis methods for inflatable structures were formulized, and the thermal stress of thin films was cons

28. Numerical Study on the Structural Performance of Steel Beams with Slant End-plate Connections
Abstract Thermal effects can be one of the most harmful conditions that any steel structure should expect throughout its service life. To counteract this effect, a new beam, with a capability to dissipate thermally induced axial force by slanting of end-plate connection at both ends, is proposed. The beam was examined in terms of its elastic mechanical behav

29. Aerothermoelastic Analysis of Functionally Graded Plates Using Generalized Differential Quadrature Method
Abstract In the present paper, the aerothermoelastic behavior of Functionally Graded (FG) plates under supersonic airflow is investigated using Generalized Differential Quadrature Method (GDQM). The structural model is considered based on the classical plate theory and the von Karman strain-displacement relations are utilized to involve the nonlinear behavio

30. Effect of Thermal Residual Stresses on Buckling and Post-Buckling Properties of Laminated Composites Perimetrally Reinforced
Abstract Several mechanical properties can be affected by the occurrence of residual stresses due to curing, and their effects are more pronounced in laminated composites. The effect of the thermal residual stresses on the buckling and post-buckling properties of perimetrally reinforced laminated composites is experimentally characterized. Carbon/epoxy lamin

31. Uncracked joints in plain concrete pavements: causes, effects and possibilities of improvements
AbstractDuring the construction of Jointed Plain Concrete Pavements (JPCPs) in Chile, it was observed that joints remained uncracked. The objectives of this paper are to evaluate the effects of uncracked joints (UnCrJ) in JPCPs and to propose possible solutions or improvements to avoid or minimize this phenomenon. Considering low thermal amplitude as cause o

32. Fire response of a 3D multi-storey building with buckling restrained braces
Abstract This paper investigates the performance of a three-dimensional multi-storey structure with Buckling Restrained Brace system (BRBs) under fire condition, using a sequentially coupled nonlinear thermal stress analysis. Efficiency of using BRBs in enhancing the strength and stiffness of a structural frame is compared with that of Ordinary Concentricall

33. DQ thermal buckling analysis of embedded curved carbon nanotubes based on nonlocal elasticity theory
Abstract To investigate the thermal buckling of curved carbon nanotubes (CCNTs) embedded in an elastic medium, nonlocal elasticity theory is employed in combination with the theory of thin curved beams. Differential quadrature (DQ) method is implemented to discretize the resulted governing equations. Solving these equations enables us to estimate the critica

34. Thermal load effects on fatigue life of a cracked railway wheel
AbstractIn this paper, fatigue life of a cracked railway wheel under thermo-mechanical loads is studied. For this purpose a FE model of a wheel, with two brake shoes and a portion of rail is created and suitable loads and boundary conditions are applied to the model. It is assumed that the wheel has contained an elliptical crack in the definite depth of the

35. Activities and Ergonomics of Workers in Broiler Hatcheries
The objective this study was to assess ergonomic factors, posture and biomechanics of workers of a broiler egg hatchery. The analysis of ergonomic factors was based on physical work load, thermal environment, and exposure to light and noise. The posture of workers was analyzed using photographic records which were evaluated by the software program OWAS (Ovak

36. Configuration Study of Structurally Integrated Thermal Protection Systems for a Sub-Orbital Platform
ABSTRACT: The atmospheric hypersonic flight of sub-orbital and space vehicles generates aerodynamic heating and high wall heat fluxes, inducing high temperatures on the vehicle's structures and affecting their mechanical behavior, besides degrading the operation of board equipment. Furthermore, since payload preservation is always mandatory, the use of effic
