Abstract

The microscopic stress field provides a unique connection between atomistic simulations and mechanics at the nanoscale. However, its definition remains [...]

Abstract

This paper presents the main physical parameters, dependencies, calculation methods in the physical structural-energy theory of the strength of a deformed solid. The initial physical and mechanical parameters of the strength of steel 45 were determined analytically. The physical methods [...]

Abstract

"jats:p"Several general effects of boundary conditions and their adequate description at structural dynamic computational simulation constitute the main subject of the discussion. First, an analytical model of elastically supported beam was considered to evaluate the effects of support [...]

Abstract

Delamination strength is the mechanical property which plays a key role in the pathological process referred to as Arterial Dissection. This dissection, known especially for its occurrence in the thoracic aorta, is manifested by a separation of the layers of an artery wall, and may [...]

Abstract

For rehabilitation of existing concrete structures, strength and durability related properties of the reinforced element are of high importance. Assessment of these properties of existing structures can be performed by (i) destructive testing of drilled cores and testing the extracted [...]

Abstract

Timber has been widely adopted as a global structural material. However, timber sometimes deteriorates due to various factors such as termite infestation, which may reduce its strength and durability. It is difficult to ascertain the degree of deterioration of timbers by visual inspection [...]

Abstract

Research on ultrasonic welding of composites has focused mostly on studying parameters that are inputs for the process or material-related parameters, but almost no attention has been given on the effect of manufacturing tolerances. In this work, we investigated how an angle between [...]

Abstract

Overlay and maintenance resolve medium distress, but reconstruction may feasible and economical while Asphalt pavement are badly deteriorated with time and traffic. This requires the removal of existing pavement surfaces. [...]
