Pragmatic optimisation methods for determining material constants of viscoplasticity model from isothermal experimental data

Determination of Propagation Constants and Material Data from Waveguide Measurements

This paper presents an analysis with the aim of characterizing the electromagnetic properties of an arbitrary linear, bianisotropic material inside a metallic waveguide. The result is that if the number of propagating modes is the same inside and outside the material under test, it is possible to determine the propagation constants of the modes inside the material by using scattering data from ...

Comparision of Methods for Determining Bearing Capacity of Piles Using Standard Penetration Test (SPT) Data

In recent years, determining bearing capacity of piles from in-situ testing data as a complement to static and dynamic analysis has been used by geotechnical engineers. In this paper, different approaches for estimating bearing capacity of piles from SPT data are studied and compared. A new method based on N value from SPT is presented. Data averaging, &#10failure zone and plunging failure of p...

Development of Methods for Determining Aflatoxins in Biological Material

an accessible and pragmatic experimental model of nonalcoholic fatty

background: there is no convenient cheap pragmatic experimental model for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (nafld)/nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (nash). we aimed to create a pragmatic model of nafld/nash. methods: sprague-dawley rats were fed a high-fat, high sugar homemade diet ad libitum for seven weeks. the high-fat, high sugar diet included 59% of energy derived from fat, 30% from carbohydra...
