Coronary arterial smooth muscle is myogenically active, is acted upon by a variety of modulating agents, and is subjected, in situ, to compression and distension by the myocardium. Its mechanical properties thus play a key role in the regulation of coronary blood flow. To describe these, we applied phase-plane analysis of shortening velocity vs. length and load clamping to strips of isolated co...

The demountable and modular light-gauge steel framed (DMLSF) wallboard is presented used as non-load bearing exterior walls in medium high-rise construction or temporary structure. Firstly, the bending tests were conducted on five wall modules to explore flexural behavior of wall. numerical model was also established verified by experimental results, simplified calculation method capacity propo...

According to the deformation and movement requirements of the FAST reflector, a multipurpose analysis, including the load-bearing behavior, deformation, construction costs of the reflector supporting structure and its model, is presented in this paper. The advantages and disadvantages of steel and aluminum alloy structures are also discussed and compared through detailed design calculations und...

Delamination of the veneering composite is frequently encountered with fibre-reinforced composite (FRC) fixed dental prosthesis (FDPs). The aim of this study is to evaluate the influence of framework design on the load-bearing capacity of laboratory-made three-unit inlay-retained FRC-FDPs. Inlay-retained FRC-FDPs replacing a lower first molar were constructed. Seven framework designs were evalu...

Typical load-bearing biological materials like bone, mineralized tendon and shell, are biocomposites made from both organic (collagen) and inorganic (biomineral) materials. This amazing class of materials with intrinsic internally designed hierarchical structures show superior mechanical properties with regard to their weak components from which they are formed. Extensive investigations concent...

Induction motors are mainly used for variable load applications and it is vital to have a condition monitoring system with capabilities to diagnose motor faults in variable load conditions. The environment noise varies has non-linear relation with motor load and it challenges the decision making capability of the condition monitoring system. This paper addresses the issue of reliable decision m...

Partial weight bearing is often prescribed for patients with orthopedic injuries. Patients’ ability to accurately reproduce partial weight bearing orders is variable, and its impact on clinical outcomes is unknown. This observational study measured patients’ ability to reproduce partial weight bearing orders, factors influencing this, patients’ and physiotherapists’ ability to gauge partial wei...

A study of the influence rigidity above-ground structures a nine-story panel building on stress-deformed state its pile foundation was carried out.
 For study, several models house with same parts were created, which differed from each other in terms construction scheme basement floor: monolithic reinforced concrete or prefabricated concrete, load-bearing walls also change: along letter nu...
