Edward Garboczi, Sharu Kandy, Iman Mehdipour, Narayanan Neithalath, Aditya Kumar, Mathieu Bauchy, Samanvaya Srivastava, Torben Gaedt, Gaurav Sant
Extrusion-based 3D printing with rapidly hardening polymeric materials is capable of building almost any conceivable structure. However, concrete, one of the most widely used materials for large-scale structural components, is generally based on inorganic

Tensile Tests at 77 K and 4 K on 316L Stainless Steel Welded Plates

July 19, 2022
Author(s)
Dash Weeks, Nicholas Derimow, Jake Benzing
Based on the collaborative framework established between ASME, NASA, and NIST, quasi-static tensile tests were performed in liquid nitrogen (77 K) and liquid helium (4 K) on tensile specimens extracted from the centers of four welded 316L stainless steel

Measurement Methods and Techniques for Pressure Losses in Pipe Fittings

June 25, 2022
Author(s)
Lingnan Lin, Marylia Duarte Batista, Natascha S. Milesi-Ferretti
Pressure losses in pipe fittings are important design information for sizing pipelines and selecting pumps. Currently, there is no standard method of test for determining the pressure loss of pipe fittings. To assist future development of a standard method
