Based on the mechanical test (shear test, compression test), bond model of corn kernel and straw was established to explore rolling crushing effect different rollers. The type roller is different. material process by force (extrusion kneading) analysis reveals that disc (DCR) has characteristics large unit-length kneading area; spiral-notched serrated (SNSCR) transverse shearing material; they ...

High Performance Fiber Reinforced Cementitious Composite (HPFRCC) materials exhibit strain hardening behavior with multiple cracking under tensile loading. In this paper, experimental and parametric studies are performed to assess the influence of using HPFRCC material instead of normal concrete in reinforced concrete beams. After calibrating the experimental results, the analytical results inc...

Assessing the behavior of composite structures which are subjected to impact loads is one of the important subjects in the field of mechanical sciences. Using thin-walled tubes which collapsed and absorbed the impact energy is a well-known method to prevent damages to the other parts of the structures. In this paper, deformations, crushing length, peak load, mean force and energy absorption cap...

The present contribution deals with the numerical modeling of railway track-supporting systems-using coupled finite-infinite elements-to represent the near and distant field stress distribution, and also employing a thin layer interface element to account for the interfacial behavior between sleepers and ballast. To simulate the relative debonding, slipping and crushing at the contact area betw...

The Indirect Tension Test (IDT) is frequently used for evaluation of asphalt material viscoelastic creep properties. With the increased use of finer aggregate gradations and polymer modified asphalt binders in asphalt materials, crushing can occur under the narrow loading heads. The new specimen configuration proposed has a trimmed area under the loading heads, creating a “flattened-IDT.” This ...

The role of activity in the maintenance of the normal component resting conductances of skeletal muscle fibres has been evaluated in vitro in rat extensor digitorum longus muscle during reinnervation from 2 to 40 days (a) after crushing of the peroneus nerve and (b) after local application of tetrodotoxin (TTX) to the crushed nerve. Whereas membrane conductances were regained after crushing alo...
