Optimization of the Cross-Sectional Geometry of Auxetic Dowels for Furniture Joints
Materials, 2023 In this study, the aim was to optimize the cross-sectional geometry of auxetic dowels for furniture joints. For this purpose, two different sizes of auxetic dowels were chosen, one for frame- and the other for panel-type furniture joints for designing the cross-sectional geometry.

Multiple Frames of Reference Are Used During the Selection and Planning of a Sequential Joint Action
Frontiers in Psychology, 2018 Co-actors need to anticipate each other's actions to successfully perform joint actions. The frames of reference (FOR) used to simulate a co-actor's action could impact what information is anticipated. We hypothesized that co-actor's would adopt their co-

BioResources, 2019 This study applied response surface methodology for modeling and optimizing heat-treated wood dowel joints, the most used joint in furniture construction. The factors examined were dowel length, dowel diameter, and adhesive consumption. The bending moment capacity of the joints loaded in compression or tension were the responses.

Effect of selected factors on stiffness of dowel joints
BioResources, 2018 Furniture must be designed to suit the intended use. Producers need to guarantee its quality and stiffness. During external loading, there are internal forces that can be transmitted and may result in a failure. This article examines the dowel joint, which is one of the most popular furniture joints.

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT While cross‐laminated timber (CLT) is increasingly utilized in lateral force‐resisting systems in mass timber construction, research has predominantly focused on platform‐type construction. Balloon‐type CLT shear wall systems offer distinct structural advantages, notably the elimination of cumulative perpendicular‐to‐grain compression and a ...

Properties of double dowel joints constructed of Medium Density Fiberboard [PDF]
Maderas. Ciencia y tecnología, 2018 The objective of this study is to determine optimum parameters for double dowels in medium density fiberboard components, and the maximum value of the strength of joints loaded in tension and compression bending. This study analyzes dowel diameter, clearance or interference fit value, and dowel spacing by using the orthogonal experiment method. Optimum

STRUCTURAL BEHAVIOR OF TIMBER-STEEL-JOINTS WITH EITHER DOWEL-TYPE FASTENERS OR CONTINUOUS JOINTS
World Conference on Timber Engineering (WCTE 2023), 2023 For the development of a new hybrid construction method combining the materials steel and timber for linear load-carrying elements subjected to bending loads, different joining methods were investigated. The joining methods were 1) dowel-type fasteners, partly in combination with higher friction in the shear plane and 2) continuous joints, mainly by ...

Review of articular cartilage repair techniques and their application in the horse
Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Articular cartilage lesions represent a significant career‐limiting problem in athletic horses. A healthy articular cartilage surface is vital for optimal joint function, and defects can result in irreversible degenerative changes. Successful treatment of cartilage lesions remains a long‐standing challenge for orthopaedic surgeons, prompting ...

Importance of dowels in transversal joints in concrete pavements
IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2017 Concrete pavements are designed for heavy loaded road structures. Their usage brings a number of specific issues. It is necessary to solve them all to ensure that concrete pavements will fulfil their function along the whole design period. One of these issues concerns dowels, which are located in transversal joints.

Mechanics‐based model for cold joints in reinforced concrete members
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract This study introduces a mechanics‐based numerical model to characterize the behavior of cold joints in reinforced concrete members subjected to monotonic loading. The model incorporates mechanisms such as interface slip and opening, aggregate interlock, clamping force, and dowel action of the reinforcing bars crossing the interface.
