Identification of anisotropic tensile strength of cortical bone using Brazilian test. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
For a proper analysis of cortical bone behaviour, it is essential to take into account both the elastic stiffness and the failure criteria. While ultrasound methods allow complete identification of the elastic orthotropic coefficients, tests used to ...

Failure in Confined Brazilian Tests on Sandstone [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Strength of rocks in the confined tension region, where the minimum principal stress is tensile, has only infrequently been measured and is not well understood. Quasi-static confined Brazilian tests under a range of confining stresses (2.76 to 27.58 MPa) where used to determine the strength of sandstone in the confined tension region.

New approach of concrete tensile strength test

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials, 2020
The study aims to develop a new approach of concrete tensile strength test characteristic by minimizing the traditional drawbacks such as load eccentricity, stress or strain non-uniformity and stress concentration in traditional test methods and of a ...

Validation of the Simple Shoulder Test in a Portuguese-Brazilian population. Is the latent variable structure and validation of the Simple Shoulder Test Stable across cultures? [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The validation of widely used scales facilitates the comparison across international patient samples. The objective of this study was to translate, culturally adapt and validate the Simple Shoulder Test into Brazilian Portuguese.

DNA tests probe the genomic ancestry of Brazilians [PDF]

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2009
We review studies from our laboratories using different molecular tools to characterize the ancestry of Brazilians in reference to their Amerindian, European and African roots. Initially we used uniparental DNA markers to investigate the contribution of distinct Y chromosome and mitochondrial DNA lineages to present-day populations.

A simple discrete-element-model of Brazilian test [PDF]

open access: yesThe European Physical Journal B, 2016
We present a statistical model which is able to capture some interesting features exhibited in the Brazilian test. The model is based on breakable elements which break when the force experienced by the elements exceed their own load capacity. In this model when an element breaks, the capacity of the neighboring elements are decreased by a certain ...

Modification of the Brazilian indirect tensile strength formula for better estimation of the tensile strength of rocks and rock-like geomaterials

open access: yesJournal of King Saud University: Engineering Sciences, 2022
Rock mechanical properties are essential input in many design applications in petroleum, mining, environmental and civil engineering. The most reliable source for these properties is the laboratory tests.
