Subcutaneous interstitial fluid pressure during external loading

American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 1981
Interstitial fluid pressure (IFP) distribution generated as a result of externally applied pressure (EAP) may play an important role in the etiology of decubitus ulcers. In the forelimbs of 10 thiopental sodium-anesthetized Yorkshire pigs, weighing 16-20 kg, we placed wick catheters 2-5 mm below the skin.

Support Design and External Loads

1984
Supports for heat exchangers and pressure vessels have remained largely beyond the pale of any governing codes. Whereas detailed rules for the design of the pressure parts have been available in the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Codes for several decades [17.1.1–2], support design has received scant attention.

Grip force control of predictable external loads

Experimental Brain Research, 2007
The grip force used to grasp and hold an object is modulated synchronously and precisely with a self-produced load indicating predictive feedforward control. It is unclear whether an externally produced load can be anticipated with similar feedforward-timing and precision if it can be predicted, e.g., because it has a periodic time course.

Improved Helicopter External-Sling-Load Capability

Journal of the American Helicopter Society, 1961
Abstract : Helicopters flying with various external loads have experienced situations wherein the load became so unstable that either the load had to be released or the speed had to be reduced drastically. A solution to the greater part of this external-load problem was found in the design of a new sling harness, commonly referred to as a swing.

Dependence of cruciate-ligament loading on muscle forces and external load

Journal of Biomechanics, 1997
A sagittal-plane model of the knee is used to predict and explain the relationships between the forces developed by the muscles, the external loads applied to the leg, and the forces induced in the cruciate ligaments during isometric exercises. The geometry of the model bones is adapted from cadaver data.

Strain estimation for external event loads

Nuclear Engineering and Design, 1986
Abstract It is common knowledge that structural design on the basis of stress limitation leads to an overestimation of the damage potential of low cycle dynamic loads (e.g. seismic events). Until now the high effort needed for step-by-step numerical evaluation of nonlinear dynamic structural response is a serious obstacle for a more realistic design

External flange loads and ‘Koves’-method

International Journal of Pressure Vessels and Piping, 2002
Abstract Practical implementation of a much more realistic approach for treating external moments for various major flange assessment methods is proposed. First, the question of how to deal with torsion in flange rings weakened by bolt holes is addressed. This aspect was not covered by the original paper of Mr Koves on which our work is based.

Flight Load Investigation of Helicopter External Loads

1975
Abstract : Any cargo that is freely suspended from a helicopter fuselage, by any of several available methods, does not experience the same dynamic loads as the aircraft. For various reasons the load factors may be amplified and peak out of phase with those of the helicopter. This has long been suspected as a major contribution to premature failures in

EXTERNAL LOADS AND FOUNDATIONS FOR PIPES

Journal AWWA, 1971
The stress on a buried water pipeline will vary with the soil surrounding the pipe and the shape of the excavation. The reasons for this phenomenon and ways in which it can be used to the advantage of the pipe installer are described.

The response of bone to external loading regimens

Medical Engineering & Physics, 1994
The results of Hert et al. have been re-examined using an external pin fixation technique involving New Zealand White rabbits. New bone formation was assessed with tetracycline epifluorescence in 49 animals. The animals were operated upon using inhalational anaesthesia, and pins were placed at opposite ends of the tibia of both hind limbs.
