Pure shear axes and elastic strain energy

, 2006
It is well known that a state of pure shear has distinct sets of basis vectors or coordinate systems: the principal axes, in which the stress is diagonal, and pure shear bases, in which diag(stress)=0.

Financial Burden Associated With Hospitalisation Among Families of Childhood Brain Tumours in Australia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Families of children with cancer experience significant financial strain, even with universal healthcare. Indirect costs, such as productivity losses and non‐medical expenses, are rarely included in economic evaluations, and little is known about how effectively financial aid programmes alleviate this burden. Childhood brain tumours

A Degradation Function Consistent with Cocks–Ashby Porosity Kinetics [PDF]

, 2018
The load carrying capacity of ductile materials degrades as a function of porosity, stress state and strain-rate. The effect of these variables on porosity kinetics is captured by the Cocks–Ashby model; however, the Cocks–Ashby model does not account for

Magnetostrictive behaviour of thin superconducting disks

, 2003
Flux-pinning-induced stress and strain distributions in a thin disk superconductor in a perpendicular magnetic field is analyzed. We calculate the body forces, solve the magneto-elastic problem and derive formulas for all stress and strain components ...

Revisiting the thermodynamics of hardening plasticity for unsaturated soils [PDF]

, 2010
A thermodynamically consistent extension of the constitutive equations of saturated soils to unsaturated conditions is often worked out through the use a unique 'effective' interstitial pressure, accounting equivalently for the pressures of the ...

Evidence for realignment of the charge density wave state in ErTe$_3$ and TmTe$_3$ under uniaxial stress via elastocaloric and elastoresistivity measurements

, 2022
We report the evolution of a charge density wave (CDW) state in the quasi-2D rare-earth tritellurides ($R$Te$_3$ for $R$=Er,Tm) as a function of in-plane uniaxial stress.

‘They Need to Hear You Say It’: Healthcare Professionals’ Perspectives on Barriers and Enablers to End‐of‐Life Discussions With Adolescents and Young Adults With Cancer

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT End‐of‐life conversations with adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with cancer rarely occur without the guidance of healthcare professionals. As a part of the ‘Difficult Discussions’ study, focused on palliative care and advance care planning discussions with AYAs with cancer, we investigated the factors that healthcare professionals identify ...

Creep Experimental Study of Rocks Containing Weak Interlayer Under Multilevel Loading and Unloading Cycles

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Using the cyclic loading and unloading method, rheological tests of intact sandstones and composite sandstones containing a weak interlayer (WI) with inclination angles 15°, 30°, 45°, and 60° under different axial loading were carried out.

Rafting microstructure during creep of the MC2 nickel-based superalloy at very high temperature [PDF]

, 2009
Directional coarsening of the single-crystalline nickel-based superalloy MC2 has been investigated by means of tensile creep tests at 1100 ◦C. Two specific specimen geometries were designed in order to generate a variety of stress and strain states ...
