Residual tensile strength plays a critical role in the design of steel fiber-reinforced concrete (SFRC) elements. It is imperative to verify and control the mechanical properties through experimental ...

Modulus of elasticity, also known as Young's modulus, quantifies a material's tendency to deform elastically (i.e., non-permanently) when a force is applied. It represents the ratio of stress (force ...

The modulus of elasticity, also known as Young's modulus, is a measure of a material's stiffness. It defines the relationship between stress (force per unit area) and strain (deformation per unit ...

If you enjoyed this article, I’d like to ask for your support. Scientific American has served as an advocate for science and industry for 180 years, and right now may be the most critical moment in ...

The meticulous design and data processing of the SHPB test necessitate an exact analysis of the elastic segment to ensure an accurate acquisition of dynamic parameters. When other conditions align ...

Abstract: The apparatus that accelerates electrons which are emitted from an electron gun to produce a high energy electron-beam. The basis of electron beam technology is electric energy represented ...

The thickness of concrete coating on a large-diameter offshore pipeline may be up to eight times the wall thickness of its steel pipe, requiring that its effects on the stiffness, stresses, and ...

Engineers still seem to prefer stainless steel vacuum chambers over aluminum ones. But aluminum provides benefits for vacuum chambers, especially for ultra-high (UHV) and extreme vacuum applications. ...

A recent article in Communications Materials proposed a novel approach to enhance the elastic modulus of a cast aluminum alloy by incorporating isostructural Laves phases to form a multi-component, ...

Para-D is parallel stranded, continuously wound, UHMWPE (Dyneema) fibers covered with a highly chafe resistant PE cover. It is then coated with a tough Urethane coating. It is lightweight and easily ...
