TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the influence of the orthotropy factor of structures upon all the buckling modes from global to local ones, and the uncoupled post-buckling state.

Abstract: The invention relates to a heat exchanger mounting bracket which has a first member with a retaining channel and a second member with a retaining lug. The retaining channel of the first member retains the retaining lug of the second member at an initial mounting position, with a predetermined retaining force, by way of at least a formation on the first member. The retaining channel and lug are releaseable from one another when a force greater than or equal to the predetermined retaining force is applied between the first and second members. A heat exchanger mounting bracket is also provided where a body member is provided with a longitudinal slot toward one end for locating a portion (P) of a heat exchanger, and a pivotal arrangement toward the other end. The pivotal arrangement and longitudinal slot allow displacement of the portion (P) of the heat exchanger from a fore to an aft position upon application of an impact force.

TL;DR: In this article , the tensile, fatigue, and impact strengths of Markforged 17-4 PH and BASF Ultrafuse 316L stainless steel were compared to two 316L variants manufactured via selective laser melting (SLM) and literature results.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated a straightforward method based on a finite element analysis employed to estimate the load carrying capacity of columns and employed a death element feature to eliminate concrete material.

TL;DR: Assessment of behavior of thin-walled compressed steel columns in a temperature-controlled environment till their full damage revealed that maximum recorded loads under temperature rise are comparable regardless of a value of initial load.
