Investigation on Failure Behavior of Unflawed Steel Cylindrical Pressure Vessels Using FEA

Abstract: Finite element analysis (FEA) has been carried out utilizing the ANSYS software package to assess the failure of thick and thin‐walled steel cylindrical pressure vessels. A simple experimental stress analysis (ESA) procedure is described to evaluate the stress components on inner and outer surfaces of the vessels under internal pressure from the measured surface strains. The procedure is validated considering the strain values of FEA for the applied pressure as measured quantities and obtained the corresponding stress components considering the stress‐strain data of the material from ESA and compared with those of FEA results. Failure pressure estimates from FEA (based on the global plastic deformation) were found to be in good agreement with test results of thin as well as thick‐walled cylindrical vessels made of ductile steel materials.

Radiation dose due to radon and heavy metal analysis in drinking water samples of jammu district, jammu & kashmir, india.

Abstract: In the present investigation, radon concentration and heavy metal analysis were carried out in drinking water samples in Jammu district, Jammu & Kashmir, India. The radon concentration was measured by using RAD-7, portable alpha particle detector. The values of radon concentration in drinking water samples were also compared within the safe limit recommended by different health agencies. The total annual effective dose ranged from 53.04 to 197.29 µSv y-1 The annual effective dose from few locations from the studied area was found to be greater than the safe limit (100 µSv y-1) suggested by World Health Organisation (WHO) and EU Council. Heavy metal concentration was determined by atomic absorption spectrophotometer. A total of eight elements were analysed, viz. arsenic, mercury, zinc, iron, copper, chromium, manganese and cadmium. Heavy metals are considered to be the major pollutants of water sources. The results were compared with the limits of WHO, EU and Indian organisations. The trace metal analysis is not on the exceeding side of the permissible limit in all the samples.

Cosmologies with Variable G and Λ from Action Principle

Abstract: Cosmologies with variable G and Λ are developed in this paper from an action principle, and some exact cosmological models are presented. These models indicate that the era of variable G and Λ must have occurred, if at all, prior to other possible eras like radiation and dust.
