Impact of temperature on the pullout of reinforcing geotextiles from unsaturated silt [PDF]
, 2020 This study investigates the thermal soil-geosynthetic interaction mechanisms of reinforcing geotextiles confined in compacted silt that may be encountered when using mechanically-stabilized earth (MSE) walls as geothermal heat sinks.

Mechanical Stress Distribution inside Dry Capacitor Elements
Proceedings of the Nordic Insulation Symposium, 2018 Many power products are produced by winding paper, polymer film or metal foils around an electrically active or passive core, like cables, bushings and capacitor elements. The mechanical stress distribution inside the product has high impact on its final performance.

Influence of aggregate size and fraction on shrinkage induced micro-cracking of mortar and concrete
, 2009 In this paper, the influence of aggregate size and volume fraction on shrinkage induced micro-cracking and permeability of concrete and mortar was investigated. Nonlinear finite element analyses of model concrete and mortar specimens were performed.

Computer Simulation of Drying Stresses in Wood
Journal of the Society of Materials Science, Japan, 1973 Computer simulation was conducted to assess the effect of the rate of drying on stress in wood during drying. Numerical calculations for the simulation were carried out with an electronic computer FACOM 270-20/30. Examples of the flow chart and FORTRAN programs used are shown in the text where we assumed that the stress follows the integro-differential

Relationship between seed harvesting method and seed physiological quality for a number of Pioneer maize hybrids [PDF]
, 2012 The seed germination and seed vigor of eight Pioneer Hi-Bred maize hybrids were evaluated immediately after harvesting and a year later. The aim was to determine whether the seed showed loss of germination and vigor when shelled mechanically.
