A comparison of punching shear strengthening of RC flat plates with FRP bars and steel bolts
This study investigated the behavior of carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP), aramid fiber-reinforced polymer (AFRP) bars and steel bolts as post-installed shear reinforcements for strengthening flat plate structures to evaluate their cost and ...

MODELLING OF STRESS GRADIENT EFFECT ON FATIGUE LIFE USING WEIBULL BASED DISTRIBUTION FUNCTION [PDF]
In the present paper, a new approach is developed in order to take into account the stress gradient effect on fatigue life of structural components. The proposed approach is based on the weakest link concept in which the shape coefficient of the Weibull ...

Aim To evaluate the effect of plate offset using a PCM‐TPLO plate with an anatomical design for medial translation of the proximal tibial segment and frontal‐plane alignment during modified TPLO in small‐breed canine tibial models using CT. Methods Five distinct small‐breed tibial morphologies were reproduced as three‐dimensional‐printed bone models ...

Behaviour of composite solid propellant under biaxial tensile loading
Biaxial tensile tests were carried out on cruciform specimens of composite solid propellants. Digital Image Correlation (DIC) was used to measure the strain in the gage section. Experiments were conducted at displacement rates of 1, 50 and 1000 mm/min (Y

Identification of nonlinear kinematic hardening parameters for sheet metal from biaxial loading tests [PDF]
In this work an anisotropic material model at finite strains with nonlinear mixed (isotropic and kinematic) hardening is used for the identification of the hardening parameters of sheet steel.

Influence of Specimen Geometry on the Estimation of the Planar Biaxial Mechanical Properties of Cruciform Specimens [PDF]
It is in general challenging to characterize planar mechanical properties of extremely soft tissues such as cell-seeded collagen gels. One of the difficulties is related to premature failure of specimens. This issue may be resolved by employing fillets on stress-concentrated spots of the specimen.

Courtship display behavior influences tail myology in Centrocercus minimus (Gunnison sage‐grouse)
Courtship displays among birds are widespread, particularly those which incorporate raised tail feathers for extended periods of time. The Gunnison sage‐grouse (Centrocercus minimus) is such a species. When we compared the tail muscles of the sage‐grouse to birds which do not engage in erected tail fan postures, both morphology proportional mass ...
