A Cone Penetrometer System for Measuring Cone Index and Stress Relaxation
Transactions of the ASAE, 1989ABSTRACT Aportable computer controlled cone penetrometer was designed for making cone index and relaxed cone index measurements. The new penetrometer is DC powered and was interfaced to an IBM personal computer. Software was used for controlling the penetrometer motor speed (penetration rate), and sampling cone depth, cone index and stress relaxation ...

Optical-Fiber and Entry-Cone Contact Stresses
MRS Proceedings, 1998AbstractMany of the broken fibers in optical connectors, especially those that seem to occur over time without apparent provocation are found in the ferrule at the transition from entry cone to alignment capillary. This paper contends that many such breaks are due to local stresses caused by debris or some other relatively rigid imperfection in the ...

Cone-plate instrument for stress relaxation measurements
Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 1980Abstract An instrument for the measurement of stress relaxation in shear is described. The force is detected by a sensitive piezoresistive pressure transducer. The requirement of constant strain can be fulfilled within less than 1%. Preset values of shear strain can be imposed on the sample within 0.1 sec.

Cone-and-Plate Shear Stress Adhesive Test
The Journal of Adhesion, 1987Abstract A test geometry is described which will produce a state of essentially pure constant shear stress in an adhesive bond. The adherends are fabricated from two cylindrical elements, one with a convex conical end section and the other with a flat plate end section.

Vaginal Cones for the Treatment of Genuine Stress Incontinence
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1990EDITORIAL COMMENT: This paper provides further evidence of the value of pelvic floor exercises as a viable alternative to surgery in the treatment of genuine stress incontinence. Many women will not have the motivation to continue with pelvic floor exercising over a prolonged period of time but the fact that over 40% are significantly improved up to 2

Vaginal cone therapy in patients with stress urinary incontinence
Archives of Gynecology and Obstetrics, 2013The aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness of the vaginal cone usage in patients with stress urinary incontinence (SUI) treated by hormone replacement therapy (HRT).In this prospective controlled study, vaginal cone therapy is proposed to 22 postmenopausal patients with SUI having HRT who were admitted to Istanbul University, Faculty of ...

Random field characterisation of stress-nomalised cone penetration testing parameters
Géotechnique, 2005Random field modelling of soil variability allows significant statistical results to be inferred from field data; moreover, it provides a consistent framework for incorporating such variability in reliability-based design. Cone penetration testing (CPT) is increasingly appreciated because of its near-continuity and repeatability. Stress-normalised CPT

Stress concentration in cone–cylinder intersection
International Journal of Pressure Vessels and Piping, 2001Abstract The finite element method and shell theory were employed to investigate cone–cylinder shell intersections. The developed special-purpose computer program Sais (stress analysis in intersecting shells) was used for elastic stress analysis of branch connections. A comparison of calculated results with experimental data is presented.

Influence of cable terminal stress cone install incorrectly
2009 IEEE 9th International Conference on the Properties and Applications of Dielectric Materials, 2009The electric field intensity around the power cable terminal is computed based on the finite element method when the power cable is loaded on the 110kV constant voltage source. If the power cable terminal is installed correctly, the stress cone covers the outer semi-conducting layers 60mm.
