Load generation is a suitable concept for system level test of complex systems. We present a novel approach especially for service based systems. Test scenarios are defined as inputs and describe a quantification of the wanted load to a service. A test-automation component partitions and distributes these abstract load values to a set of clients. These clients execute service requests to genera...

reinforced concrete (rc) slabs exhibit complexities in their structural behavior under load due to the composite nature of the material and the multitude and variety of factors that affect such behavior. current methods for determining the load-deflection behavior of reinforced concrete slabs are limited in scope and are mostly dependable on the results of experimental tests. in this study, an ...

The results of a comprehensive pile load-test program and observations from field monitoring of helical piles with either a single helix or double helixes installed in oil sand are presented in this paper. Eleven full-scale pile load tests were carried out including axial compression, uplift, and lateral load tests. The results of the full-scale load tests are used to develop a theoretical desi...

In this paper, we made the plan of a load testing, and got results by means of the LoadRunner which is an automatic load testing tool. We combined with the characteristics of electronic commerce system and did the load testing and analysis the result of load test by means of the LoadRunner. We fully described the characteristics of the electronic commerce application, designed the reasonable te...

functionally graded aluminium/zirconia metal matrix composite was fabricated using stir casting technique followed by horizontal centrifugal casting process and a hollow cylindrical functionally graded composite (150 x 150 x 16 mm) was obtained with centrifuging speed of 1200 rpm. the microstructural evaluation and hardness test was carried out on the outer and inner surface of the functionally...

this paper aims at investigating the effects of weld nugget size and expulsion on the mechanical properties of low carbon steel resistance spot welds using tensile-shear test. mechanical performance of spot welds are described in terms of failure mode, peak load and failure energy obtained from the tensile-shear test. the effects of voids and porosity as well as electrode indentation associated...
