In this paper, considering symmetric collapse mode for hybrid tubes, and using Tsai-Hill fracture criterion to take into account the off-axis strength of an orthotropic lamina, an analytical model is extended and an expression is derived for mean crushing load and fold lengths of circular hybrid tubes. In this model, the influences of the geometrical dimensions including diameter, thickness of ...

Significant intraoperative bleeding and injuries to vital structures in the liver remnant can occur during liver parenchymal transection using the conventional clamp-crushing technique. We performed liver resection on 242 patients using a mosquito clamp-crushing technique combined with a self-assembled saline-linked diathermy for liver parenchymal transection. The mean blood loss was 215 mL (ra...

To study the effects of confining pressure and joint material properties on stress evolution fracture behavior jointed rock mass under SHPB impact load, numerical software LS-DYNA indoor system are used to carry out experimental research intact mass. The peak stress, reflection transmission coefficient, specimen failure state specimens different schemes obtained. level propagation attenuation l...

in this study, a researching program is conducted by cyclic triaxial test to determine the post-cyclic behavior of bushehr carbonate sand retrieved from the north of the persian gulf, under anisotropic consolidation at 200 kpa confining pressure. the article compares the post-cyclic monotonic strength and excess pore water pressures generated after the test with the pre-cyclic monotonic results...

cylindrical thin-walled tubes due to construction and easy installation, high energy absorption capacity are used in the automotive industry as an impact energy absorber. however, the main weakness of cylindrical tubes is in the high initial peak load. therefore, in this paper, to overcome this weakness, a buckling initiator is used at the top of the tube. this buckling initiator is a steel rod...
