The crash energy absorption of the vehicles front structures

Transport, 2003
During the frontal crash the longerons absorb most energy of all vehicles construction elements. In order to analyse the energy absorbing capabilities of longerons under axial compression loading and to evaluate the influence of longerons geometrical ...

The Mechanics of Solidity [PDF]

Nature, 1920
UNDER this title Mr. J. Innes (NATURE, November 18) suggests, for the benefit of engineers, that coefficients of thermal expansion are fairly closely related to hardness. His list of thirty-eight materials ranging from diamond to indiarubber is given in order of thermal expansion.

Optimization design based approach for the determination and minimization of the displacement under tensile load in hybrid composite joint

Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2020
C Composite materials are most often used for lengthier and thin structures susceptible to buckle. The optimization is often carried out taking into consideration the resistance to buckling and tensile loads for minimum displacement i.e maximization ...

Characterization of mechanical damage in granite

Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2013
This paper aims to illustrate the use of infrared thermography as a non-destructive and non-contact technique to observe the phenomenological manifestation of damage in granite under unconfined compression. It allows records and observations in real time

Effect of resin softening point and hydrogenation on the in-rubber performance of silica-filled SSBR/BR tire tread compounds

Polymer Testing
The effect of resin softening point (SP) and hydrogenation on the in-rubber properties of silica-filled SSBR/BR tire tread compounds was investigated using indene-coumarone hydrocarbon resins with SP values ranging from 10 to 160 °C.
