Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWhat Factors Determine Family Spending on Education in India and Does it Vary Across Well-Being Measures?Geetha Rani PrakasamThe present paper estimates the drivers of family spending on education across economic groups. The questions that are explored include: (i) Does family spending on education vary across economic groups and over time? (ii) The subsidiary question is to understand the gender bias in education spending across these groups. As a corollary to this, at which levels of education and … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 16 May 2023 · 6,524 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReinforcing Effect of Strain Gauges on 3D Printed Polymers: An Experimental InvestigationSalvatore Brischetto, Roberto TorreStrain gauges are ordinary transducers for strain measuring; their operation relies on the electrical resistance, which varies as the underlying substrate is subjected to mechanical deformation. The mechanical strain can be obtained by converting the electrical signal through a gauge factor, provided by the manufacturer. It was demonstrated that its values are not unique; it may be influenced by the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 9 Jan 2021 · 7,658 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFluid-Structure Interaction Analysis of a Piezoelectric Cantilever for Energy HarvestingBader AlshuraiaanA numerical investigation was conducted to study the impact of varying the velocity magnitude and the elasticity of the cantilever on the performance of the piezoelectric beam such as tip deflection and voltage, tip electric field and maximum electric field. COMSOL software was used to solve for the governing equations taking into account fluid-structure interaction.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUncertainty Assessment for the Buckling Analysis of Glass Columns with Random ParametersMohammad Momeni, Chiara BedonLoad-bearing elements composed of glass, as known, are often susceptible to buckling collapse mechanisms. This intrinsic characteristic (and thus potential limitation for design) typically derives from the use of relatively small thicknesses to cover large spans and surfaces, thus resulting in a multitude of columns, beams, or plates that are characterized by high slenderness. In the literature, accordingly, several and … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 22 Dec 2020 · 6,295 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractVolume 1: First Steps for SGAMRChiara Bedon, Mario D’Aniello, Flavio StochinoSummer 2017 is approaching when the International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research starts to walk and the “Volume 1” contains its first outcomes (Bedon et al., 2017). It is worth of interest that the attention of the contributors is on glass…. but not only,… and this represents a promising step for the journal growth and evolution.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTime-Temperature Dependency of Laminated Glass Subjected to Blast Load – A Numerical StudyMatthias FörchThe behavior of laminated glass has strong time-temperature dependency. Viscoelastic material models are often employed to define mechanical properties of Polyvinyl Butyral (PVB), the most common interlayer for structural glass applications. However, it is an apparent notion to simplify the high complexity of such material models, as only specific software is capable of considering this behavior. Most studies in blast … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 18 Mar 2020 · 7,676 accessesView PDFCite
