A Study on Break-Away Bolt Design for a Marine Safety Break-Away Coupling Based on Elastic Stress Analysis
This study developed a fracture design process for a new break-away bolt for 4” safety break-away coupling (SBC). To design the new bolt, we analyzed stress profiles of commercial break-away bolts for 3” SBC u...

Application of ORP and pH as controlling factors in sequencing batch reactor
The ratio of aeration/non-aeration is a key variable in the operation of a Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) for biological nutrient removal (BNR). To determine the ratio of aeration/non-aeration, the Oxidation R...
