Rail support modulus is an important factor in safety of railway track. This parameter is defined as support force imposing on rail length unit per rail unit displacement in vertical direction. Rail ...

A recent article published in Engineering introduced green compression-casting for fabricating reinforced concrete structures. The article examined the effects of various inferior concrete materials, ...

Single-angle sections are often provided as web members in roof trusses, bracings in buildings and transmission line towers, and cross-frame members in plate girder bridges. They are often connected ...

Modulus of subgrade reaction or coefficient of subgrade reaction is the reaction pressure sustained by the soil sample under a rigid plate of standard diameter per unit settlement measured at a ...

The mechanical properties of electrochemically deposited Li whiskers critically determine the failure mechanisms of Li metal batteries, yet they remain elusive at the single-whisker level. Here, the ...

The study of rock burst tendency of rock masses with different sizes plays a key role in the prevention of rock burst. Through theoretical analysis, it is proposed that uniaxial compressive strength ...

The testing machine yielded an average Young's modulus of 2383 MPa (345,000 psi) with a standard deviation of 612 MPa (88,500 psi). In contrast, the average Young's moduli through the extensometer ...

Innovation thrives when we pause to observe, question, and reimagine the world around us, turning challenges into opportunities for progress. Nature, in particular, serves as a rich source of ...

Abstract: This paper focuses on the influence of the joint of hexagonal honeycomb structures on the in-plane equivalent elastic modulus and resilience ability. Firstly, a series of honeycomb samples ...

Abstract: Compression-fatigue tests at ~ 77 K were conducted to compare two insulation systems (epoxy resin impregnated glass/Kapton) for use in the ITER central solenoid modules. Test samples ...

Article Views are the COUNTER-compliant sum of full text article downloads since November 2008 (both PDF and HTML) across all institutions and individuals. These metrics are regularly updated to ...
