Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing a Hierarchical Weibull model to Predict Failure Strength of Different Glass Edge ProfilesDavid Thomas Kinsella, Johan LindströmThe edge strength of glass is analyzed using a Weibull statistical framework based on 78 data samples from a range of experiments recorded in literature. Based on the analysis, a 45 MPa strength value (computed as the lower bound in a one-sided confidence interval at the 75% level for the 5-percentile in the distribution) could be conservatively used with arrised, … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 30 Apr 2020 · 8,274 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Novel Thermo-Chemical Treatment on Bending Strength of Laminated GlassAjitanshu VedrtnamThe science of thermal and chemical treatment of glass is well documented. The Laminated Glass (LG) is usually not treated as either treated glass is used during production or lower melting temperature of interlayer does not allow the treatment. The present work reports the novel methods of thermo-chemical treatment of LG having annealed soda lime glass plies. Five thermo-chemical treatments … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 29 Mar 2018 · 6,973 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFinite-Element Numerical Simulation of the Bending Performance of Post-Tensioned Structural Glass Beams with Adhesively Bonded CFRP TendonsChiara Bedon, Christian LouterIn this study, a Finite-Element (FE) numerical investigation is carried out on laminated glass beams with Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) adhesively bonded post-tensioning tendons. Taking advantage of past four-point bending experimental test results available in literature, a refined full 3D FE numerical model is calibrated and validated. A key role is given to a multitude of aspects, including the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 27 Sep 2016 · 8,739 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFinite Element Formulation for Active Composite LaminatesDragan Marinkovic, Manfred ZehnSmart structures are characterized by a synergistic integration of active materials into a passive structure connected by a control system to enable an automatic adaptation to changing environmental conditions. Piezoelectric materials are widely used as distributed sensors and actuators in smart structures, where especially hybrid composites - a combination of fiber-reinforced and piezoelectric laminae - are very powerful smart material … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 2 Jun 2015 · 7,778 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSIMULTANEOUS OPTIMISATION OF DRYING PARAMETERS OF CERAMIC BODIESSalah Mahmoudi, Ezzeddine Srasra, Fouad ZargouniThis study deals with the mineralogical, physico-chemical and geotechnical analyses of representative Aptian clays in the north-east of Tunisia. X-ray diffraction reveals a predominance of illite (50-60 wt.%) associated to kaolinite and interstratified illite/smectite. The accessory minerals detected in raw materials are quartz, calcite and Na-feldspar. The average amounts of silica, alumina and alkalis are 52, 20 and 3.5 wt.%, … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 1 Jul 2014 · 6,991 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Use of Swimmer Bars as Shear Reinforcement in Reinforced Concrete BeamMoayyad Al-Nasra, Naem Asha, Abdelqader Najmi, Taher Abu-LebdehThe behavior of reinforced concrete beams at failure by shear is distinctly different from their behavior by bending, which is considered to be unsafe mode of failure. The shear failure of beams is usually sudden without sufficient advanced warning and the diagonal cracks that develop due to excess shear forces are considerably wider than the flexural cracks. The cost and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 15 Mar 2013 · 8,134 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIncorporation of Cellulose into a Chew Treat for Dogs Increases Elasticity and Chewing TimeA. C. BeynenProblem statement: We have reported earlier that administration of a treat containing a special cellulose preparation (Arbocel BWW40®), instead of a control treat without cellulose, diminishes the clinical signs of periodontal disease in dogs. Based on the physical characteristics of cellulose preparation, we hypothesized that treats with cellulose have greater elasticity and induce longer chewing time, leading to more mechanical … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 20 Oct 2011 · 7,874 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHow Does The Bone Shaft Geometry Affect its Bending Properties?Kaveh PourAkbar Saffar, Nima JamilPour, Seyed Mohammad RajaaiIn this research, ten fresh specimens of sheep tibiae were provided from slaughtered animals. Whole bone specimens were loaded in three-point bending according to standard wet bone test protocols. Mechanical properties were determined and compared with the results which were obtained from two dry bone tests. The results showed that fracture bending moment and bone extrinsic stiffness had significant relations … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,148 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of the Fracture Toughness of the Concrete Mortars Exposed to Elevated TemperaturesS. Djaknoun, A. Ahmed Benyahia, E. OuedraogoThe main objective of this research was the characterisation of the fracture toughness of concrete mortars exposed to high temperatures by using notched specimens in three point bending tests. The specimens have different lengths and were heated at different temperatures ranging from room temperature up to 900°C. The experimental test results obtained are closed with those reported by the literature, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 6,524 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Serviceability Considerations of HSC Heavily Steel Reinforced Members under BendingAli Akbar Maghsoudi, Yasser SharifiTo investigate the serviceability conditions of High Strength Concrete (HSC) beams, the total number of 6 beams (L = 2 m, b = 0.2 m, h = 0.3 m) heavily reinforced with different ratios of ρ and ρ' were cast and tested under bending load. During the test the concrete and steel strains, deflection and crack width are measured at … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2008 · 6,896 accessesView PDFCite
