the research was conducted in order to determine the bending stress, young’s modulus, shearing stress, and shearing energy of safflower stalk as a function of moisture content and stalk region. the bending forces were measured at different moisture contents and the bending stress and the young’s modulus were calculated from these data. for measuring the shear forces, the stalk specimens were se...

this study was aimed to investigate the bending moment and stress (inner and outer corners) in lshaped biscuit joint made of solid wood, particleboard and medium density fiberboard (mdf). for this purpose, l-shaped joints made of beech and fir, particleboard and mdf by biscuit size numbers of 0 (47×15×3.8 mm), 10 (53×19×3.8mm) and 20 (60×23×3.8mm). bending moment and stress carrying capacity of...

Heart attack and stroke are often caused by atherosclerotic plaque rupture, which happens without warning most of the time. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based atherosclerotic plaque models with fluid-structure interactions (FSIs) have been introduced to perform flow and stress/strain analysis and identify possible mechanical and morphological indices for accurate plaque vulnerability assess...

many researchers have been efforted to identify the shape of distribution of stress and strength of castellated beam and base on that, offer a method for design that members. through this methods, comparing virendil method by simplicity and reasonable results, have been used widly. regardless from shortcoming of this method, there is two idea for distribution of stresses via primary bending in ...

Distributions of growth strains in branches, straight trunks and basal sweeping trunks of Chamaecyparis formosensis Matsum. trees were measured with strain gauges. Microfibril angles (MFAs) of the S2 layer of the cell wall were measured by the iodine deposition method and their relationships with growth strain examined. The magnitude of the compressive stress on the lower side of trunks with a ...

[1] Oceanic lithosphere undergoes permanent deformation during subduction once the stresses exceed the elastic limit. Departures from elastic behavior occur by brittle failure in the shallow lithosphere and by a combination of lowand high-temperature creep at greater depths. We combine laboratory-based rheological models with estimates of slab shape from earthquake hypocenters to quantify the b...

DNA bending and torsional deformations that often occur during its functioning inside the cell can cause local disruptions of the regular helical structure. The disruptions created by negative torsional stress have been studied in detail, but those caused by bending stress have only been analyzed theoretically. By probing the structure of very small DNA circles, we determined that bending stres...

The complete stress field, including the microstress, the moment-stress, and the line forces are derived for the pure bending of a rigid-plastic beam of rectangular cross-section in the model of strain-gradient plasticity. The workless spherical parts of the microstress and the moment-stress tensors are incorporated in the analysis. Their determination is shown to be of importance for the fulfi...

It is well known that there is a large variance associated with fatigue life. However, in literature little is found on the relationship between manufacturing processes and fatigue variance of the manufactured components. In this research, the influence of machining processes on the fatigue variance of the machined Ti 6Al-4V samples is studied experimentally. The impact is evaluated by comparin...
