Compressive strength of canine femur

Journal of Biomechanics, 1979
Abstract This study is an in-depth analysis of the mechanical properties of the canine femur. The parameters studied were compressive strength, modulus of elasticity and density. The test specimens (4.5 mm long, 3 mm2 cross-sectional area) were prepared from eight different quadrants about the circumference of different levels of the proximal 2 ...

The compressive strength of articular cartilage

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H: Journal of Engineering in Medicine, 1998
Articular cartilage provides the smooth bearing surfaces in freely moving (synovial) joints. Its mechanical properties are important because structural failure of cartilage is closely associated with joint disorders, including osteoarthritis. Some mechanical properties of cartilage are well characterized, but little is known about its compressive ...

The Strength of Thin Plates in Compression

Journal of Fluids Engineering, 1932
Abstract The stability of thin plates has been investigated by many authors. However, in aeronautical structures, thin metal sheets are often used beyond the stability limits, and the load which can be carried by the structure is determined by the ultimate strength in compression. A recent series of experiments by the Bureau of Standards

The Strength of Jacks in Compression

Aircraft Engineering and Aerospace Technology, 1949
THE strength criterion for hydraulic and pneumatic jacks usually occurs under compression and the methods for determining this strength and the critical load from stability considerations depend largely upon the construction of the jack and the operating conditions in which the load is applied. Suitable methods for use in particular cases are indicated

Slow Compressive Strength of Amalgam

Journal of Dental Research, 1972
An investigation of the compressive strength of amalgam at various loading rates revealed that the strengths of several commercial amalgams loaded at 0.001 inch/ minute were correlated (r = 0.931) to their respective dynamic creep values.

Compressive strength testing of compressed earth blocks

Construction and Building Materials, 2007
Abstract As with other masonry units, compressive strength is a basic measure of quality for compressed earth blocks. However, as compressed earth blocks are produced in a great variety of sizes the influence of block geometry on measured strength, primarily through platen restraint effects, must be taken into account.

Compressive strength of heated high-strength concrete

Magazine of Concrete Research, 2007
The present study is aimed to study the effect of elevated temperatures ranging from 50 to 250°C on the compressive strength of high-strength concrete (HSC) of M60 grade made with ordinary portland cement (OPC) and pozzolona Portland cement (PPC). Tests were conducted on 100 mm cube specimens. The specimens were heated to different temperatures of 50,

The Strength of Masonry with Low Compressive Strength of Mortar

Advanced Materials Research, 2014
The article deals with a problem of determination the strength of masonry for low grade mortar. This situation can occur with fresh mortar or in historical massive buildings. Results of different equations according to several authors and standards were compared and expressed in graphs. Authors propose the minimum value of mortar strength being used in
