Geopolymer concrete is one of the innovative eco-friendly materials that has gained attention many researchers in sustainable development construction industry. The primary objective this experimental investigation to study flexural behaviour ternary blend geopolymer (TGPC) with various proportions hybrid fibres. In study, 27 reinforced beams were cast a TGPC grade M55 and tested under monotoni...

Recent interest in high-speed scanning probe microscopy for high-throughput applications including video-rate atomic force microscopy and probe-based nanofabrication has sparked attention on the development of high-bandwidth flexure-guided nanopositioning systems (nanopositioners). Such nanopositioners are designed to move samples with sub-nanometer resolution with positioning bandwidth in the ...

Once these features are analytically and experimentally verified, they can lead to significant advantages in terms of range of motion, accuracy of motion and simplicity in motion control. Most parallel kinematics flexures have a limited range of motion since larger motions induce non-linearity and parasitic coupling, which in turn limits accuracy. Despite being parallel mechanisms, the proposed...

The structural fire response of slender austenitic stainless steel I-sections in weak-axis flexure is studied experimentally for the first time. presented experimental programme comprised local geometric imperfection measurements all test beams, room temperature material tests, a reference bending and series elevated tests. setup, procedure measured responses specimens are fully described. resu...

In steel structures, a lot of attention is paid to lightweight i.e. reduction dead load without compromising structural safety, integrity and performance. Thanks modern aluminium foam sandwich panel manufacturing technology new possibility became available for design. Assessment understanding the behaviour this under in-plane compression or flexure crucial before its application in structures. ...

Thermoplastic braided composite tubular beams were manufactured using commingled hybrid yarn with braid angles 30°, 45° and 60° tested in static three-point flexure. Two principal deformation modes observed during the flexural loading: global flexure localised crush. The extent of each mode occurring three angle variants was measured a linear deflectometer as well 3D digital image correlation. ...

introduction: angle and internal position of lateral pterygoid muscle leads to contraction over two half of the mandible in maximum opening and protrusion position so it can affects impression prosthetic procedures. the aim of this study was to evaluate the mandibular flexure in two transverse and antro-posterior dimensions. methods: seventy edentulous patients at mashhad faculty of dentistry a...
