An Ultimate Transverse Strength Analysis of Ship Structure

Computer Simulation of Ultimate Strength Degradation of Ship Structures by Corrosion and Fatigue

Current ship structure strength assessment procedures used by ship classification societies are mostly experience-based. The degradation effects of damages including fatigue, corrosion, collision and grounding on ultimate strength are seldom taken into account. Cui and Wu [1] proposed a more rational ship structure strength assessment method, First-Principle-Based Strength Assessment System (FB...

an infinite planar array of rectangular microstrip patch antenna analysis

the methods which are used to analyze microstrip antennas, are divited into three categories: empirical methods, semi-empirical methods and full-wave analysis. empirical and semi-empirical methods are generally based on some fundamental simplifying assumptions about quality of surface current distribution and substrate thickness. thses simplificatioms cause low accuracy in field evaluation. ful...

Prediction of ultimate strength of shale using artificial neural network

A rock failure criterion is very important for prediction of the ultimate strength in rock mechanics and geotechnics; it is determined for rock mechanics studies in mining, civil, and oil wellborn drilling operations. Also shales are among the most difficult to treat formations. Therefore, in this research work, using the artificial neural network (ANN), a model was built to predict the ultimat...

Ultimate Strength Analysis of Normal and High Strength Concrete Wall Panels with Varying Opening Configurations

Ultimate tensile strength of tooth structures.

OBJECTIVE This study determined the ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of enamel (E), dentin (D) and dentin-enamel junction (DEJ) using the microtensile technique. It was hypothesized that the UTS of dental structures varies according to location and nature. METHODS Intact occlusal enamel surfaces from extracted human third molars were etched with 37% phosphoric acid and bonded with a one-bottle...
