Life assessment of a stationary jet engine component with a three-dimensional structural model
Gözütok, Tanzer; Akgün, Mehmet A.; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2004)
In this thesis, fatigue life of a stationary component of F110-GE-100 jet engine is assessed. Three-dimensional finite element model of the component itself and the neighboring components are modeled by using a finite element package program, ANSYS, in order to perform thermal, stress and fracture mechanics analyses. Coupled-field (thermal-stress) analysis is performed to identify fracture-critical locations and to describe the stress histories of the components. After determining the critical location, fra...
Life cycle assessment of off-highway trucks and belt conveyors for sustainable mining
Erkayaoğlu, Mustafa; Demirel, Nuray; Department of Mining Engineering (2011)
In recent years increasing growth rate of all industrial fields generated an emerging energy demand and consequent environmental problems worldwide. Defining environmental profiles of products and systems using environmental tools, such as Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), is a critical issue for sustainable mining. In order to tackle the increasing environmental challenges and air emissions induced by surface coal mining, alternative material handling options are needed to be evaluated. This research study aims...
Life prediction for an iron-based superalloy
Orhaner, FO; Tekin, E (1997-08-15)
Tubes made of Nb-stabilised 25%Cr35%Ni iron-based superalloys have been extensively used in the radiant sections of naphta cracking furnaces where ethylene production is done. Since the tubes are generally replaced before reaching their design lives of 100000 hrs for such systems realistic remaining life predictions become essential for economy and safety.
Life cycle assessment of wind power for electricity generation in Pakistan
Khalid, Sajida.; Sarı, Ramazan; Department of Earth System Science (2019)
Pakistan is a developing country and energy crisis has always emerged as the key hindrance in economic development. Besides the increasing demand and supply gap, it is alarming fact that the current energy mix is mainly dependent on fossil fuels which results in environmental and energy security issues. As part of efforts for transition towards clean and renewable technologies for electricity generation, the assessments carried out by Pakistan Meteorological Department and Ministry of Energy in collaboratio...
Life cycle assessment of masonry wall types using simulation techniques
Üçer, Deniz; Elias Özkan, Soofia Tahira; Department of Architecture (2012)
This is the report of a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) study on some masonry wall types. As the starting point, literature on masonry materials, techniques and possible end-of-life scenarios were examined that are needed for the formulation of a LCA study. Prevalent masonry types were detected as fired clay brick, AAC block, natural stone, mud brick as well as prevalent end-of-life cases as landfill, reuse and recycling. Additionally, an overview of the literature on Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) was p...
