OBJECTIVES This investigation sought to advance the work published in our prior biomechanical study (Journal of Orthopaedic Research, 2016). We specifically sought to determine whether there are additional easy-to-measure parameters on plain radiographs of the proximal humerus that correlate more strongly with ultimate fracture load, and whether a parameter resembling the Dorr strength/quality ...

The purpose of this work was to determine the increase limit load when resting foundation slab on ground at a different pitch piles and their length. main task is calculate combined pile-slab foundation. hypothesis that in work, bearing capacity entire structure increases. This calculated using Plaxis 3D design software complex. In article, we have determined value by which ultimate increases r...

In this study, novel cross-shaped concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) and (ST) columns were developed. CFST have a high load-carrying capacity excellent performance under seismic conditions, the construction process is fast. order to investigate axial load bearings failure mechanisms, six specimens of ST tested load. Three different forms employed in study; one was an ordinary (OC-CFST), while ot...

Abstract The static lateral load–slip behavior of a single-shear plywood-to-plywood single-staple connection (SPSC) was investigated experimentally. A mechanics-based approach used to develop mechanical models for deriving estimation equations critical loads SPSCs based on failure modes staple legs and member materials developed during loading process. Experimental results indicated that the ca...

This research evaluated four SPT-based design equations used to estimate the carrying capacity of shallow footing. Using different methods, two plate load tests performed on silty clay and soil in Nasiriyah have been obtain ultimate load-carrying capacity. Further, this study aims utilize finite element method based Plaxis 3D foundation software simulate behavior settlement with actual dimensio...

Concrete filled tube (CFT) columns have been used as primary axial load-carrying members in high-rise building especially in seismic zones. The structural member has become popular as it has a number of distinct advantages over an equivalent steel, reinforced concrete, or steel-reinforce concrete structural member. This paper is intended to presents numerical modeling of elliptical concrete-fil...

abstract   statement of problem: hertzian indentation test has been proven to be an efficient and reliable alternative upon vickers hardness test. this method has been used to test dental ceramics, amalgams, glass ionomers and luting cements.there is limited published information about the load-bearing capacity of resin composites using hertizian indentation test. objectives: to investigate the...

The overall goal of this study is to gain an insight into the load sharing aspect between oriented strand board OSB and gypsum wall board GWB in shear wall assembly during racking load. Sixteen standard 2,440 2,440 mm walls were tested monotonically, in total, out of which 11 Type A were sheathed on both sides OSB on one side and GWB on the other , while five walls were tested without GWB Type ...

The research objective of this study was the seismic performance double-row reinforced ceramsite concrete sandwich wall panels. feasibility upgrading a new panel from non-load-bearing partition to load-bearing examined by conducting cyclic load tests on five specimens. test piece thermal insulation structure that could achieve good protection distance between material and fire source so prevent...

This paper investigates the stability behaviour and load carrying capacity of longitudinally stiffened, transversally curved steel plates under compressive stresses. The is a complex problem, especially due to interaction curvature, relative stiffness stiffeners initial imperfections. A comprehensive parametric study presented investigate effects plate slenderness, size shape on ultimate resist...
