In-service change in the flexural rigidity of the VVER-1000 fuel assemblies

Nuclear Energy and Technology, 2016
In-service dimensional stability of the VVER-1000 reactor fuel assemblies (FA) depends to a great extent on their flexural rigidity. A decrease in the flexural rigidity in the process of the FA operation in the reactor may lead to such FA bowing as will ...

Influence of infill properties on flexural rigidity of 3D-printed structural members

Virtual and Physical Prototyping, 2019
This paper characterises the flexural properties of relatively slender structural members (beams) manufactured using a FDM-based 3D printer. The primary goal is to assess the influence of infill properties on flexural rigidity through a parametric ...

Model Order Identification for Cable Force Estimation Using a Markov Chain Monte Carlo-Based Bayesian Approach

Sensors, 2018
The tensile force on the hanger cables of a suspension bridge is an important indicator of the structural health of the bridge. Tensile force estimation methods based on the measured frequency of the hanger cable have been widely used.

Continuum Plate Theory and Atomistic Modeling to Find the Flexural Rigidity of a Graphene Sheet Interacting with a Substrate

Journal of Nanotechnology, 2010
Using a combination of continuum modeling, atomistic simulations, and numerical optimization, we estimate the flexural rigidity of a graphene sheet. We consider a rectangular sheet that is initially parallel to a rigid substrate. The sheet interacts with

Calculation on Bending Stiffness of RC Short Beam Strengthened by CFRP

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2020
Based on the bending tests of seven reinforced concrete (RC) short beams strengthened with carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP), the bending stiffness curves of the whole process of the short beams strengthened with CFRP were obtained.
