Transferring Load to Flesh Part Ii. Analysis of Compressive Stress
نویسنده
چکیده
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 blocks, thin covers, and membranes impinging on flesh are discussed in terms of compressive stress (quantitative) and shear stress (relative) .

Transferring 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 کاملThe Effect of Fe Additive on Plastic Deformation for Crush-Boxes with Closed-Cell Metal Foams, Part II: Al-Composite Foam-Filled brass tubes Compression Response
The brass tubes with foam cores of AlSi7SiC3, AlSi7SiC3Fe1 and AlSi7SiC3Fe3 were produced as the crush-boxes with circle and square cross-section. Then axial compressive behavior and energy absorption capability of the foam-filled tubes were investigated during the quasi-static progressive plastic buckling. The uniaxial compressive stress–strain curves of the foam-filled brass tubes exhibited t...

AbstractIn this paper, we investigate effect of Fe–intermetallic compounds on plastic deformation of closed-cell composite Aluminum Foam as filler of thin-walled tubes. However, deformation of the Aluminum foam-filled thin-walled tubes as crushed-box will be presented in Part (II). Composite foams of AlSi7SiC3 and AlSi7SiC3-(Fe) as closed cell were synthesized by powder metallurgy foaming metho...
متن کاملThermo-mechanical analysis of diesel engines cylinder heads using a two-layer viscoelasticity model with considering viscosity effects
Loading conditions and complex geometry have led the cylinder heads to become the most challenging parts of diesel engines. One of the most important durability problems in diesel engines is due to the cracks valves bridge area. The purpose of this study is a thermo-mechanical analysis of cylinder heads of diesel engines using a two-layer viscoelasticity model. The results of the thermo-mechani...
