In many YSFs an overshoot in the loss modulus occurs at large amplitudes, and such nonlinearity marks the yield transition due to nonrecoverable strain. At that point, the loss modulus is at a maximum ...

Abstract: Even for ultra deep sea applications, pressure housings using ceramics can obtain positive buoyancy because ceramics typically have an outstanding compressive strength-to-weight ratio and ...

Abstract: Ultrasound shear wave elastography methods are commonly used for estimation of mechanical properties of soft biological tissues in diagnostic medicine. A limitation of most currently used ...

The term "involute" refers to the shape of the teeth: the curves of the teeth are involutes of circles, which are curves that optimize gear performance. Figure 1.1.2: The three marked circles are key ...

If steel manufactures usually comply with the minimum code specifications, the nominal yield strength of rebar can however be significantly exceeded in many countries, depending on the steel ...
