Effect of Mean Grain Size on the Small-Strain Dynamic Properties of Calcareous Sand
Calcareous sand was selected as the prior material for island reclamation in many coastal regions. The mechanical properties of the granular materials are greatly affected by their grain size distribution conditions.

Introduction: While shear modulus has been used as an index of muscle elongation, high costs prevent its general adoption. A more general indicator that can quantify muscle elongation non-invasively is needed to develop effective methods for stretching ...

Maximum shear modulus estimative from SPT for some Brazilian tropical soils
Maximum shear modulus (G0) has been used in various geotechnical jobs (e.g., seismic site assessment, machine vibration and pile driven). Laboratory and in situ determination of G0 is not a current practice in Brazil. G0 can be estimated from empirical correlations based on in situ tests like Standard Penetration Test (SPT) and Cone Penetration Test ...

Detecting age-related changes in skeletal muscle mechanics using ultrasound shear wave elastography
Aging leads to a decline in muscle mass and force-generating capacity. Ultrasound shear wave elastography (SWE) is a non-invasive method to capture age-related muscular adaptation.

Experimental study on dynamic shear characteristics of loess under cyclic torsional shearing
The unsaturated intact loess has remarkable structured properties. Its structure is damaged by wetting and cyclic shear action, which leads to the development of shear and subsidence deformation of loess under earthquake.

Closed-form equations for flange force and maximum deflection of box-beams of fiber reinforced polymer with partial shear interaction between webs and flanges [PDF]
Presented in the paper is the formulation of a governing second-order differential equation for the moment distribution along the length of a beam having two interfaces with partial shear interaction where two flange and two web components join to form ...
