It is prerequisite to investigate the contact characteristics if enough simulation accuracy is needed for the prediction of the mechanical system, but the contact contributes the major deformations of the whole system and give rise to the discontinuity. This paper presented a method on how to model and simulate the contact process based on the finite element method. In order to explore contact performance...
The voids at the glass frit bonding interface and inside the frit layer not only provide leakage pathways to deteriorate the sealing performance, but also reduce the effective contact area of the bonding interface to decrease the bonding strength. In this research, the micro composite glass frit bonding structure with redundant bleeding frit and bonding gap controllable was designed as the model to...
Failure models with stochastic hazard rates provide more realistic and accurate characterization of systems failure behavior under dynamic and heterogeneous working environments. However, incorporation of stochastic hazard rates results in compound distribution involving integration over random variables, which generally does not have closed form solutions. Using Weibull models with gamma-distributed...
Sustainable performance is expected to become a major factor when examining the feasibility of a construction project in terms of its life cycle performance. The study on which this paper is based developed a simulation model, using system dynamics methodology, to assess the sustainable performance of projects. Three major factors are used to examine project sustainable performance (PSP): the sustainability...
