Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAnisotropy Influence of Cubic Solid on Dynamic Hertzian Contact Stiffness for a Vibrating Rigid IndenterJiayong TianProblem statement: Resonance-type microscopies have been widely used to evaluate the nanoscaled or microscaled surface elastic properties of materials by the resonance-frequency shifts of an oscillator, which contacts the surface of materials by a spherical tip. Approach: The tip-specimen contact is modeled to be a spring support, whose stiffness is given by the traditional Hertzian contact theory. However, because of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,711 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 abstractEXISTENCE OF SOLUTIONS FOR A CLASS OF VARIATIONAL INEQUALITIESTaallah FrekhIn this study we considered a deformed elastic solid with a unilateral contact of a rigid body. We studied the existence, uniqueness and continuity of the deformation of this solid with respect to the data. We proved the existence of solutions for a class of variational inequalities. …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 9 Oct 2013 · 6,497 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Rutting Depth in Flexible Pavements by Using Finite Element Analysis and Local Empirical ModelAlaa H. Abed, Adel A. Al-AzzawiThe objective of this research is to predict rut depth in local flexible pavements. Predication model in pavement performance is the process that used to estimate the parameter values which related to pavement structure, environmental condition and traffic loading. The different local empirical models have been used to calculate permanent deformation which include environmental and traffic conditions. Finite element analysis … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 17 Aug 2012 · 8,741 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Behavior of Tyre Tread BlockK. Sridharan, R. SivaramakrishnanThe Tyre tread pattern is the arrangement of blocks, grooves and voids, sipes and channels designed into the tread to enhance its grip on the road. Tread is the uppermost part of any tyre which contact into the road and it has its own performance towards mileage, traction, low noise and heat built up properties. It would be meaningful to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Jul 2012 · 9,791 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Elastic-Plastic Contact Performance of Rigid Sphere Against a Deformable Flat-Effect of Strain HardnessV.C. Sathish Gandhi, S. Ramesh, R. KumaravelanProblem statement: The present study considers an elastic-plastic contact analysis of a rigid sphere with a deformable flat (Rigid Sphere-model) using finite element analysis. The effect of tangent modulus on the contact behavior of a no adhesive frictionless elastic-plastic contact was analyzed using commercial finite element software ANSYS. Approach: Different materials, in terms of the ratio of Young's modulus to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 26 Dec 2011 · 8,218 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Study of Naghdi's Shell with a Unilateral Contact of a Rigid ObstacleTaallah Frekh, Nouri Fatma-ZohraProblem statement: In this study we considered a shell modeled by Naghdi’s equations with a unilateral contact of a rigid body. Approach: This model has been studied by Blouza and Le Dret (1994b) but without contact. Results: In this study, we studied the existence, uniqueness and continuity of the deformation of this shell with respect to the data. Conclusion: We … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,750 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUse of 2D Multi Electrodes Resistivity Imagining for Sinkholes Hazard Assessment along the Eastern Part of the Dead Sea, JordanAbdallah S. Al-Zoubi, Abd El-Rahman A. Abueladas, Rami I. Al-Rzouq et al.Sinkholes and subsidence are natural phenomena can be occurred in shallow geology sediments at different regions in the world. Sinkholes assessment is one of the most difficult near subsurface investigations. Geophysical prospecting is appropriate method to determine environmental and geotechnical problems. 2D multi electrodes resistivity imagining with Wenner-Schulmberge array was conducted within active sinkholes area. The objective of the survey … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,049 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Modeling of a New Tactile Sensor Based on Membrane DeflectionAli Tavakoli Golpaygani, Siamak Najarian, Goldis Darb EmamiehThe designed sensor can detect 2D surface texture image, contact-force, and softness of the sensed object. It consists of a chamber for pneumatic actuation and a membrane with a mesa structure. The sensing mechanism is the contact deformation effect of a membrane. Determination of the contact force and softness of sensed object is based on the amount and variations of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2007 · 6,786 accessesView PDFCite
