The present investigation deals with the deformation in micropolar generalized thermoelastic medium with mass diffusion subjected to thermo mechanical loading due to thermal laser pulse. Laplace and Fourier transform technique is used to solve the problem. Concentrated normal force and thermal source are taken to illustrate the utility of approach. The closed form expressions of normal stress, ...

Load computers make an instructive case study in this respect. While developments have concentrated on increasing the number of loading arms, blend and additive streams a device can manage, the user experience has remained largely unchanged. This results in a number of problems, from operational delays and bottlenecks, to increased potential for errors and consequent risks to safety. Moreover, ...

Point-supported flat slabs made of cross laminated timber (CLT) for multi-storey buildings pose various challenges to structural design. One aspect are concentrated compressive loads, which cause stress concentrations in the form shear and compression perpendicular grain at point supports. The present work deals with this problem shows a method, how support area can be reinforced system connect...

The use of steel flush end-plate moment connection is practiced in the construction of the light steel frames around the world particularly in parts of Europe and US. In the past most research was concentrated on studying the behavior of the flush end-plate connection subjected to only monotonic type loadings. The majority of that research carried out such investigation through experimental pro...

blackleg in cattle has been recognized since 1938 in iran that mostly affects cattle in enzootic farm. main object of this study was to prepare and formulate a concentrated potent vaccine for immunization of cattle against blackleg in iran. experimental concentrated blackleg vaccine was prepared according to the method described by fao. the medium (modified medium for production of experimental...

PURPOSE The purpose of the present study was to analyze the effect of clenching on the biomechanical response of human mandible and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) to traumatic force by the finite element (FE) method. MATERIAL AND METHODS FE models of the mandible and the TMJ in resting and clenching positions were prepared. Distribution and magnitude of von Mises stress were analyzed by applyi...

The paper deals with the review of acoustic emission technique in biomedical field. The review is done with the aim to provide an overview of the use of AE technique in biomedical field, mainly concentrated on the AE behavior of bone under different loading conditions, its dependence on strain rate, in osteoporosis, monitoring the fracture healing process of bone. The overall conclusion from th...

To better understand the effect of repeated reverse stress in solder joints, a new testing method was developed. Tin-silver solder joints were fabricated, constrained between Cu blocks, and then subjected to repeated shear loading in a tensile tester. Constant strain amplitudes were applied to simulate service conditions. However, large loads were used to accelerate the damage accumu­ lation. M...
