Moment Connections to RHS Columns

The proposed research aims to demonstrate the performance of effective, non-proprietary moment connections for wide-flange (W-) beams to rectangular hollow section (RHS) columns in limited-ductility (Type LD) moment resisting frames (MRFs) that are easy and cost-effective to fabricate, handle, and erect. Two W-beam-to-RHS column moment connection prototypes will be developed and tested, in duplicate, at […]

Experimental Analysis, FE Prediction, and Multi-criteria Optimization of Residual Stresses Induced by Rough Milling Processes in Large Steel Blocks

The milling process is an industrial manufacturing method commonly used for shaping custom parts with precise tolerances using rotary cutters. Rough Milling processes affect the part quality of machined components due to high temperature, large strain, and high strain rate. It is important to identify and improve the milling-induced residual stresses of surface and subsurface […]
