Abstract This paper aims to develop the nonlinear incremental modeling approach for describing both monotonic and cyclic behaviors of soil‐structure interface. An exponential function is adopted as an example reproduce asymptotic relationship between interface shear stress ratio displacement. A stress‐dilatancy relation developed shear‐induced change thickness. reversal technique incorporated l...

Abstract In the framework of a research project, tooth root bending strength high-strength gears is investigated. The most common type failure encountered with these shot-peened, case-hardened breakage caused by crack initiation below surface at non-metallic inclusion (fisheye failure). However, it well known that case-hardening depth and quenching grain size can have great influence on gear’s ...

Whereas most plants are flexible structures that undergo large deformations under flow, another process can occur when the plant is broken by heavy fluid-loading. We investigate here the mechanism of such possible breakage, focusing on the flow-induced pruning that can be observed in plants or aquatic vegetation when parts of the structure break under flow. By computation on an actual tree geom...

The non-Cu critical current density of Nb3Sn strands has been pushed towards 3000 A/mm2 (12 T, 4.2 K) by increasing the Sn content and reducing the interfilamentary Cu. We compare the susceptibility to A15 filament breakage (under 0.5% bend strain) of the new high-Jc internal Sn conductor geometries with both high-Jc Powder-in-Tube (PIT) and low hysteresis loss distributed filament ITER designs...
