The Vibration Characteristics of “Free‐Free” Circularly Curved Bars

Characteristics of Compact Food bars

Compact FoodBars (CFB) are part of the diets that are named according to the purpose of use, Meal Ready-to-Eat (MRE) used during the maneuvers and military operations, Emergency Food Product (EFP) used in emergencies and crises such as natural disasters and warfare leading to the promotion of crisis management, and Ready-to-Use Therapeutic Food (RUTF) used for therapeutic purposes in malnourish...

Moisture soerms and textural characteristics of apple bars

Improving the Development Characteristics of Steel Reinforcing Bars

The bond characteristics of deformed reinforcing bars are investigated ctnd design equations for development and splice lengths are obtained with the goal of improving the bond strength of steel reinforcing bars to concrete. The research includes both experimental and analytical studies. The experimental studies involved evaluating the performance of deformed steel reinforcing bars with differe...

Dynamic characteristics of the new curved cable-stayed bridge in Porto Marghera (Venice, Italy) from ambient vibration measurements

The paper summarizes the results of recent ambient vibration tests and operational modal analyses carried out on the new curved cable-stayed bridge erected in the Commercial Harbour of Porto Marghera (Venice, Italy). The ambient vibration tests were carried out as a part of the reception tests of the bridge before its opening and included the recordings of the system response in selected points...

Vibration characteristics of tractor seat cushion materials

Operators of agricultural machinery are exposed to an extensive range of indirect vibrations through the seats, which gradually causes chronic damages. One of the ways to reduce the vibrations imposed on the operators is to use appropriate materials in tractor seat cushion. The present study was carried out in order to select appropriate foam or sponge and investigate different factors in reduc...
