Photomechanical Analysis of Wooden Testing Bodies under Flexural Loadings
نویسندگان
چکیده
Application of wood in rural construction is diffused all around the world since remote times. However, its inclusion in structural design deserves strong support from broad knowledge of material properties. The pertinent literature reveals the application of optical methods in determining the complete field displacement on bodies exhibiting regular as well as irregular surfaces. The use of moiré techniques in experimental mechanics consists in analyzing the patterns generated on the body surface before and after deformation. The objective of this research work is to study the qualitative deformation behavior of wooden testing specimens under specific loading situations. The experiment setup follows the literature description of shadow moiré methods. Results indicate strong anisotropy influence of the generated displacement field. Important qualitative as well as quantitative stress and strain distribution were obtained wooden members which are applicable to rural constructions. Keywords—Moiré methods, wooden structural material, rural constructions.

متن کاملEffect of nanoclay content on properties of glass–waterborne epoxy laminates at low clay loading
The effect of nanoclay content on the properties of glass fibre reinforced, waterborne epoxy laminates is investigated. Fourteen ply nanocomposite laminates containing 0, 0?1, 0?2, 0?5, 1 and 2 wt-% cloisite Na nanoclay are fabricated by a hot press. The interlaminar shear strength, flexural strength and flexural stiffness of the fabricated nanocomposites are characterised. In addition, the the...
