Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsFlexural and Tensile Characteristics of Micro Fiber-Reinforced Very High Strength Concrete Thin PanelsTaher M. Abu-Lebdeh, Ellie Fini, Monique LumpkinThe purpose of this research was to experimentally characterize the flexural and tensile characteristics of fiber-reinforced Very High-Strength Concrete (VHSC) panels. The panels were made with a unique mix of cementitous materials achieving compressive strength of 26,000 psi (180 MPa) or greater. VHSC panels were reinforced with polypropylene fibers of 1 inch (25.4 mm) in length and Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 17 Aug 2012 · 8,495 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Effect of the Configuration of the Screw Fixation on the Interfragmentary StrainBoonthum WongchaiProblem statement: The interfragmentary strain (εIF) is the important parameter for femur fracture healing. The Dynamic Compression Plate (DCP) is commonly used in femur fracture. The DCP and the fractured femur are fixed by using the conventional screws. Approach: This research is proposed to investigate the effect of configuration of the screw fixation on the interfragmentary stain by using Finite … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 15 Mar 2012 · 7,031 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Effect of the Bone-Plate Whole Spacing on the Interfragmentary StrainBoonthum WongchaiProblem statement: The bone plate is commonly used when human bone fracture occurs. The Inter Fragmentary (IFS) is an important factor for curing human bone fracture and designing the bone plate. The best IFS range from 2-10%.The whole spacing is a factor affecting the IFS that should be taken into account. Approach: This research propose a study on the effect … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 3 Nov 2011 · 6,877 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsStress Prediction in the Dynamic Compression Plate with Changing the Configuration of the Screw FixationBoonthum WongchaiProblem statement: Human femur fracture is one of the most frequent type of bone fractures. One of the widely used methods in an internal fixation is an application of the Dynamic Compression Plate (DCP). The configuration of the screw fixation plays a major role of the DCP stress. Approach: This research is proposed to investigate the stress distribution in the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 7,618 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBonding Property of Bituminous Crack Sealants in the Presence of WaterEllie Fini, Taher Abu-LebdehProblem statement: Crack sealing and filling is the most widely used maintenance activity for in-service pavements. If an appropriate sealant material is selected and properly installed at the appropriate time of the pavement life, it retards pavement deterioration and increases its service life at a relatively low cost. However, in some cases it is reported that sealants failed prematurely, mainly … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 12 Mar 2011 · 8,338 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMicrostructure Affecting Cutting Quality in Fine Blanking ProcessBopit BubphachotProblem statement: Fine blanking process is a high precision process and worldwide in developed countries. Since specimen does not occur fracture on the cutting edge and it is not necessary to decorate again in the finishing process for the fine blanking which can be reduced some operation steps. For example, if chain wheel of motorcycle is produced by conventional blanking, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,455 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsFinite Element Analysis of the Crack Propagation for Solid MaterialsMiloud Souiyah, A. Muchtar, Abdulnaser Alshoaibi, A. K. AriffinProblem statement: The use of fracture mechanics techniques in the assessment of performance and reliability of structure is on increase and the prediction of crack propagation in structure play important part. The finite element method is widely used for the evaluation of SIF for various types of crack configurations. Source code program of two-dimensional finite element model had been developed, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 7,842 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDevelopment of Efficient Finite Element Software of Crack Propagation Simulation using Adaptive Mesh StrategyAbdulnaser M. Alshoaibi, A. K. Ariffin, M. N. AlmaghrabiThe purpose of this study is on the determination of 2D crack paths and surfaces as well as on the evaluation of the stress intensity factors as a part of the damage tolerant assessment. Problem statement: The evaluation of SIFs and crack tip singular stresses for arbitrary fracture structure are a challenging problem, involving the calculation of the crack path … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,822 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCrack Growth in Concrete Gravity Dams Based on Discrete Crack MethodA.R. Lohrasbi, R. AttarnejadSeepage is the most parameter in water management safety and in stable agricultural. This seepage is passed through the cracks that are present to some degree in hydraulic structures. They may exist as basic defects in the constituent materials or may be induced in construction or during service life. To avoid such failure in concrete dams, safety would be an … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,078 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCreep-Fatigue Crack Growth Interaction in Nickel Base Supper AlloyF. DjavanroodiMost engineering components which operate at elevated temperatures are subjected to non-steady loading during service. This paper describes the current fracture mechanics concepts that are employed to predict cracking of Nickel base supper alloy materials at high temperatures under low and high frequency cyclic loading. A model for predicting creep crack growth in terms of C* and the creep uniaxial … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 May 2008 · 6,892 accessesView PDFCite
