Performance of Repaired Concrete under Cyclic Flexural Loading [PDF]
Materials, 2021 There is limited research reported on the effect of cyclic loading on cement-based repair materials as conducting such tests is time consuming. To overcome this issue, this study utilized a novel loading regime consisting of cycle groups with increasing stress amplitude to accelerate the test process.

The Dynamic Performance of Flexural Ultrasonic Transducers [PDF]
Sensors, 2018 Flexural ultrasonic transducers are principally used as proximity sensors and for industrial metrology. Their operation relies on a piezoelectric ceramic to generate a flexing of a metallic membrane, which delivers the ultrasound signal. The performance of flexural ultrasonic transducers has been largely limited to excitation through a short voltage ...

Investigation of Flexure Effect on Transfer Alignment Performance [PDF]
Journal of Navigation, 2012 Transfer Alignment (TA) is the initialisation process of the Inertial Navigation System (INS) of an air-launched weapon before its release by using the data from the aircraft INS. The aim of this paper is to improve the TA performance by taking into account the aircraft flexures deterministically.

Large Stroke Performance Optimization of Spatial Flexure Hinges [PDF]
Volume 6: 1st Biennial International Conference on Dynamics for Design; 14th International Conference on Advanced Vehicle Technologies, 2012 Flexure hinges inherently lose stiffness in supporting directions when deflected. In this paper a method is presented for optimizing the geometry of flexure hinges, while supporting stiffnesses are retained. These hinges are subjected to a load and deflected an angle of up to ±20°.

Flexural performance of FRP reinforced concrete beams [PDF]
Composite Structures, 2012 Abstract A numerical method for estimating the curvature, deflection and moment capacity of FRP reinforced concrete beams is developed. Force equilibrium and strain compatibility equations for a beam section divided into a number of segments are numerically solved due to the non-linear behaviour of concrete.
