background heat is a harmful factor in workplaces that causes physiologic and cognitive changes in workers. objectives the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of cooling vest on heat strain and reaction time while wearing chemical-biological-nuclear protective clothes. methods twelve male students with mean age of 25 ± 2 and body mass index (bmi) of 23 ± 1.5 were recruited in th...

determination of critical points on hot stress-strain curve of metals is crucial in thermo-mechanical processes design. in this investigation a mathematical modeling is given to illustrate the behavior of metal during hot deformation processes such as hot rolling. the critical strain for the onset of dynamic recrystallization has been obtained as a function of strain at the maximum stress. in a...

advanced high strength steels (ahss) have recently attracted great attention because of their superior mechanical properties. a modern group of these steels, known as twinning induced plasticity (twip) steels, shows a unique combination of strength and ductility even at high rates of strain. in order to examine the functionality of such steels in dynamic loading conditions, their mechanical beh...

 In this work, effects of homogenization time of 3 to 13 h at 1200 °C on the grain refinement of as-cast AISI 301 stainless steel after different hot rolling conditions were investigated. The results showed that the minimum grain size of 16±7 mm was achieved when homogenization took place at 1200 °C for 9 h followed by hot rolling at temperature range of 1000–1200 °C with strain of 0.8 and stra...

This study investigates the time-dependent long-term creep strain in a composite cylinder made of glass/vinylester with a unidirectional ply. The cylinder is subjected to an internal pressure and the boundary condition is free–free and acts as thermal insulation. The classical lamination theory (CLT) is used to derive the governing equations as a second-order equation to determine the radial, c...

When compressive strain is applied to a single-layered material, the layer generally ripples along the third dimension to release the strain energy. In contrast, such a rippling effect is not favored when it is under tensile strain. Here, using first-principles density-functional calculations, we show that molecular adsorption on boron-doped graphene (BG) can be largely tuned by exploiting the ...

In the slitting method, a small width slit is created incrementally through the thickness of the stressed specimen and the released strains in each increment are recorded by a strain gauge. Compliance coefficients relate the measured strains to the residual stresses. This paper investigates the important parameters influencing the calculation of compliance coefficients for isotropic plates and ...

Background and Aim: Dental implants with angled abutments are often inserted in the anterior maxillary region due to the status of the residual ridge and aesthetic considerations. The purpose of this study was to assess stress and strain distributions in the premaxillary bone around dental implants by means of finite element analysis (FEA). Materials and Methods: Four three-dimensional (3D) fi...
