Abstract The Norwegian Public Roads Administration has initiated a large research project
on a potential ferry-free coastal highway route E39 on the west coast of Norway. For the …

The efficient and environment-friendly stripping of damaged Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)
coatings is a committed procedure in the remanufacturing process of food utensils. A green …

Multi-layer wound cylindrical shells are the preferred structures for storage vessels working
in high pressure and hydrogen atmosphere. However, they are susceptible to external blast …

The use of scaled experiments and physical models to investigate the complex responses of
large-scale structures under high-rate loading is well-established. The approach however is …

The interest in predicting the force required for a subsea blowout preventer (BOP) to cut and
isolate the drilling pipe has been growing since the Macondo accident. In previous research …

The effects of Cerium (Ce) were studied on the casting slab quality, microstructure, and
inclusion evolution of cryogenic vessel steel. An optical metallographic microscope …

A rate-dependent damage evolution law was derived based on the thermally activated
motion of dislocations. By writing the VUMAT subroutine, it was implemented to simulate the …

In this study, a rapid prediction method for the damage range evaluation of steel box
structures under internal blast load was proposed. First, we carried out a dimensional …

This paper presents an investigation into the design of ammonia tanks for long-duration and
high-pressure blast loads. The focus is on cylindrical steel tanks that apply as outer pressure …

The hydraulic bulge test with micro-samples is expected to be useful in the damage
assessment of long-service-period metals to understand the degeneration of their …
