Fatigue Life Prediction For Rotary Friction Welded Ti-6al-4v Under Variable Amplitude Fatigue Loading, Der Merwe Hb Van, Mn James, Dg Hattingh, W Rall Jan 2019

Fatigue Life Prediction For Rotary Friction Welded Ti-6al-4v Under Variable Amplitude Fatigue Loading, Der Merwe Hb Van, Mn James, Dg Hattingh, W Rall

School of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics

The present paper considers variable amplitude fatigue lifing for rotary friction welds in Grade 23 6Al-4V titanium alloy. The work reported in this paper aimed firstly at optimising the parameters necessary to successfully rotary weld 6 mm diameter hourglass specimens of Ti-6Al-4V and, secondly, at generating CA stress-life (S-N) fatigue data to underpin a VA fatigue life prediction that was then experimentally verified against the results obtained from VA fatigue testing using an 3200 turning point sequence extracted from the simulated aircraft load spectrum mini-FALSTAFF (a modified Fighter Aircraft Loading Standard for Fatigue). It was found that the real damage …

Artificial structures are proliferating in the marine environment, resulting in ‘ocean sprawl’. In light of the potential environmental impacts of this, such as habitat loss and alteration, it is becoming increasingly important to incorporate ecologically-sensitive design into artificial marine structures. The principles of eco-engineering and green infrastructure are embedded in urban planning practice for terrestrial and freshwater development projects. In marine planning, however, eco-engineering of blue-green infrastructure remains an emerging concept. This note provides a UK perspective on the progress towards uptake of eco-engineering approaches for enhancing biodiversity on artificial marine structures. We emphasise that, despite a clear ‘policy pull’ …


Will Human Rights Ever Be Olympic Values?: Evaluating The Responses To Human Rights Violations At The Olympic Games, Ryan Gauthier, Gigi Alford Jan 2019

Will Human Rights Ever Be Olympic Values?: Evaluating The Responses To Human Rights Violations At The Olympic Games, Ryan Gauthier, Gigi Alford

Connecticut Journal of International Law

On July 24, 2020, the Opening Ceremonies for the Tokyo Olympic Games will commence. Tokyo won the right to host the Games by positioning itself as a "safe pair of hands" in contrast to the risker bids of Madrid and Istanbul.1 In preparing for the Games, Tokyo has experienced its share of troubles. Allegations of plagiarism concerning its logo,2 having to change its main stadium design,3 cost overruns,4 and allegations of corruption surrounding its bid,5 could lead one to question whether Tokyo is the "safe pair of hands" it claimed to be. Yet, these issues are par for any Olympic …
