Dissimilar friction stir welding (FSW) of titanium alloys offers a route to spatially optimized aerospace structures, but the asymmetric thermomechanical environment produces heterogeneous microstructures and textures whose interaction with mechanica...
This study investigates the influence of viscous damper parameters on the damping efficiency of frame shear wall structures. Taking a specific frame shear wall structure as the background, a three-dimensional finite element model is established using...
Prefabricated composite shear walls (PCSW) consisting of steel plate clapped by single-sided or double-sided prefabricated reinforced concrete (RC) panels have enormous advantages for application as lateral-resisting structures in prefabricated high-...
This study investigates the effect of tool pin eccentricity and welding speed on the grain structure, crystallographic texture, and mechanical properties of friction stir welded (FSWed) AA5754-H24. Three tool pin eccentricities of 0, 0.2, and 0.8 mm...
This research employed extensive numerical analyses to locate the weak areas and determine the structural issues critical to preventing the spread of collapse. As a result, three specimens were tested using scaled models of strengthened and unstrengt...
