with many years of construction and application of common concrete, researchers have always been searching for a better composition. one of the notable ideas for achieving such a composition is using recycled materials. one of the materials which is suitable for environment and constant development is damaged tires .for studying mechanical properties of concrete containing tire particles, a ser...

in the present research work, the flexural modulus and strength of glass fiber-epoxy resin and carbon fiber-epoxy resin composites have been enhanced through fiber tension during curing of the polymeric resin. this study showed that the tension applied on the fibers increased the flexural modulus of the glass-epoxy composites up to 12% and the flexural strength up to 19%. the flexural modulus a...

Russell Bainer 1,2 and Valerie Weaver 1,2, 3, 4, 5, 6 Mechanical tension on a cell from its environment alters the expression of a protein that changes the physical properties of the nucleus. and accreted onto the black hole ( 6). Summing over the total wind loss from the surrounding stars, this gives an accretion rate of 10 solar masses per year ( 7). The mysterious thing is, this accretion ra...

this paper presents the results of analytical studies concerning the flexuralstrengthening of reinforced concrete beams by external bonding of high-strength lightweightcarbon fiber reinforced plastic (cfrp) plates to tension face of the beam. three groups of beamswere tested analytically and compared with existing experimental results. results of the numericalanalyses showed that, although addi...

are compared with the experimental results. In these test results the shape memory alloys behavior as: super elasticity under various temperatures, loading rate effects, asymmetry in tension and pressure, various loops of loading and unloading, hydrostatic pressure effects, different proportional tension-shear biaxial loading and unloading, and also deviation from normality due to non-proportio...

The influence of specimen polishing, specimen configuration, and specimen size on the transverse tension strength of two glass epoxy materials loaded in three and four point bending was evaluated. Polishing machined edges, and/or tension side failure surfaces, was detrimental to specimen strength characterization instead of yielding a higher, more accurate, strength as a result of removing inhe...

The maximal calcium-activated isometric tension produced by a skinned frog single muscle fiber falls off as the ionic strength of the solution bathing this fiber is elevated declining to zero near 0.5 M as the ionic strength is varied using KCl. When other neutral salts are used, the tension always declines at high ionic strength, but there is some difference between the various neutral salts u...
