Transferring Load to Flesh Part Ii. Analysis of Compressive Stress
The normal stresses developed within a mass of flesh subject to various types of loading are examined theoretically. Using a simplified model of flesh possessing a definite modulus of elasticity and Poisson's ratio, static compressive stress values at various locations are determined. Formulas and numerous worked examples are given. The characteristics of load-transfer members including rigid b...
متن کاملTransferring load to flesh: part IX. Cushion stiffness effects.
Stresses developed within flesh in contact with a cushion are examined analytically. Compressive, tensile, and shear stresses within flesh in proximity to a bone are given as a function of cushion stiffness (major parameter) and the overall Poisson's ratio of flesh (minor parameter). It is shown that an individual already sitting on a soft cushion receives relatively minor benefit when a still ...
متن کاملInvestigating the effectiveness of washing cantaloupe melon rind in preventing the transference of surface E. coli into melon flesh
Cantaloupe melon was the source of a lethal outbreak of Listeria in 2011. This research investigated whether washing a contaminated cantaloupe rind was sufficient in preventing the transferring of Escherichia coli. Hence, the null hypothesis for this study was that there is no association between washing a contaminated cantaloupe melon and the presence of the contamination in the flesh. In this...
متن کاملEnergy Optimization of Under-actuated Crane model for Time-Variant Load Transferring using Optimized Adaptive Combined Hierarchical Sliding Mode Controller
This paper designs an Optimized Adaptive Combined Hierarchical Sliding Mode Controller (OACHSMC) for a time-varying crane model in presence of uncertainties. Uncertainties have always been one of the most important challenges in designing control systems, which include the unknown parameters or un-modeled dynamics in the systems. Sliding mode controller (SMC) is able to compensate the system in...
متن کاملNutritional assessment of a jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus) meal.
OBJECTIVES The mature jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus) is consumed in Sri Lanka either as a main meal or a meal accompaniment. However, there is no scientific data on the nutrient compositions of cooked jackfruit meals. Thus, the objective of the study was to carry out a nutritional assessment of a composite jackfruit breakfast meal comprising seeds and flesh. DESIGN A jackfruit meal comp...
