Analysis of a typical railway turnout sleeper system using grillage beam analogy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A simplified grillage beam analogy was performed to investigate the behaviour of railway turnout sleeper system with a low value of elastic modulus on different support moduli.

Contact angles on a soft solid: from Young's law to Neumann's law [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The contact angle that a liquid drop makes on a soft substrate does not obey the classical Young's relation, since the solid is deformed elastically by the action of the capillary forces. The finite elasticity of the solid also renders the contact angles

Effect of Cyclic Loading on Modulus of Elasticity of Aspen Wood

open access: yesBioResources, 2014
This article investigates the modulus of elasticity of solid and laminated aspen wood of various thicknesses after cyclic loading. A three-point static bending test was carried out to determine the modulus of elasticity.

Elastic Modulus of Cetacean Auditory Ossicles [PDF]

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, 2014
ABSTRACTIn order to model the hearing capabilities of marine mammals (cetaceans), it is necessary to understand the mechanical properties, such as elastic modulus, of the middle ear bones in these species. Biologically realistic models can be used to investigate the biomechanics of hearing in cetaceans, much of which is currently unknown.

Evaluation of Mechanical Properties of Homogeneous and layering Particleboards by Ultrasonic Technique [PDF]

open access: yesتحقیقات علوم چوب و کاغذ ایران, 2015
The aim of present study was to determine the relationship between ultrasonic wave velocity and mechanical properties of particleboard panels. For this purpose, homogenous and layering particleboards were made by 0/7 g/cm3 density and 16 mm thickness ...

Dynamic mechanical behaviour of polyamide 11/Barium titanate ferroelectric composites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Dynamic mechanical analysis and tensile test have been used to characterize the mechanical behaviour of hybrid composites. Barium titanate (BaTiO3) is the submicron filler and polyamide 11 (PA 11) the matrix.

Properties of High Performance Self Compacting Concrete Continuously Exposed in Oil Products [PDF]

open access: yesEngineering and Technology Journal, 2014
Self compacted concrete (SCC) is a new generation of concrete. Its behavior after exposure to oil products is still unknown. This investigation includes producing SCC and investigate its properties after different exposure periods (28,60,90,120,150 and ...

Coupling of elasticity to capillarity in soft aerated materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We study the elastic properties of soft solids containing air bubbles. Contrary to standard porous materials, the softness of the matrix allows for a coupling of the matrix elasticity to surface tension forces brought in by the bubbles.
