Three BRB specimens are cyclically loaded in the investigation. Specimen 1 adopts a Q235 core member and transverse rib restraints. Specimen 2 adopts a LYP160 low yield point steel core member and transverse rib restraints. Specimen 3 adopts a LYP160 low yield point steel core member and mortar restraint. The experimental results indicate that the transverse rib restraining mode can provide sufficient lateral stiffness for the core member and effectively restrain its buckling. The BRB specimens with a LYP160 core member exhibit better hysteretic performance and energy dissipation capacity than the specimens with a Q235 core member.展开更多

Process capability and process control are significant factors in achieving the purpose of research and development programs. Often-used evaluation methods failed to measure processyield and process centering ; so this paper uses Taguchi loss function as basis to establish an evaluation methodand the steps for assessing the quality of mechanical properties and process control of an iron and steel manu-facturer. The establishment of this method can serve the research and development and manufacturing industry and lay a foundation in enhancing its process control ability to select better manufacturing processes that are more reliable than decision making by using the other commonly used methods.展开更多
