Toughness and edge-toughness

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics, 1997
AbstractWe generalize the definition of toughness and define a new property of graphs, the egdetoughness. In this new definition edges are also allowed to be deleted besides vertices. A number of results are given on the relation of toughness and edge-toughness.

Influence of Polyvinyl Alcohol Powder on the Mechanical Performance and Volume Stability of Sulfoaluminate–Portland Cement Composite

open access: yesCrystals, 2021
Cement quick repair materials generally have the defects of brittleness and early shrinkage. The modification of composite cement mortar by water-soluble glue powder—polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)—was studied in the condition of settled water cement ratio.

Tough Love in Tough Times

open access: yesStudies in the Maternal, 2012
This paper examines the cultural politics of 'thrift' and 'tough love'. It reflects upon the significance of notions of 'good parenting' in policy and popular debates around social mobility and aspiration. In particular, it reviews the profound importance of notions of 'poor parenting' in the culturalisation of poverty, whereby poverty is seen to be a ...

Employment Protection: Tough to Scrap or Tough to Get? [PDF]

open access: yesThe Economic Journal, 2006
If legislating employment protection is a protracted process subject to time delays, then firms can dismiss workers before an increase in protection is implemented. Heightened risk of dismissal before implementation makes workers in countries with flexible labour markets reluctant to support proposals for more stringent protection.

The Effect of Nickel Contents on the Microstructure Evolution and Toughness of 800 MPa Grade Low Carbon Bainite Deposited Metal

open access: yesCrystals, 2021
In this work, three deposited metals with different nickel (Ni) contents were produced by active gas metal arc welding (GMAW) in order to explore the influence of Ni on the microstructure evolution and toughness of 800 MPa grade low carbon bainite ...

Algorithms to Estimate the Ductile to Brittle Transition Temperature, Upper Shelf Energy, and Their Uncertainties for Steel Using Charpy V-Notch Shear Area and Absorbed Energy Data

open access: yesMetals, 2023
Toughness and the transition from ductile to brittle behavior are long-standing concerns for applications of ferritic steel such as line-pipe. Three algorithms have been developed to fit a hyperbolic tangent curve to any Charpy V-notch dataset and ...
