This paper proposes a framework for the constitutive model based on the semi-micromechanical aspects of plasticity, including damage progress for simulating behavior of concrete under multiaxial loading. This model is aimed to be used in plastic and fracture analysis of both regular and reinforced concrete structures, for the framework of sample plane crack approach. This model uses multilamina...

present research with the aim of the studying the efficacy of training of mindfulness based stress reduction (mbsr) in the reduction of occupying mothers in proportion to mother-infant has carried out. the way of the present search is a study quasi-experimental. the method of its pre-test and post-test with control and experimental groups. in this research, nurse mothers of rasht with the tool ...

introduction: toxic effects of pesticides are commonly associated with reactive oxygen species damage and pentoxifylline a phosphodiesterase inhibitor is a drug well known for antioxidant properties. the purpose of this study was to evaluate the oxidative damages following a subacute exposure to malathion, an organophosphorus insecticide and pentoxifylline's ability to counteract these eff...

four rapeseed cultivars (hayola 401, hayola 308, rgs and option) were evaluated for some physiological traits under stress (50 % field capacity (fc) and non-stress (irrigated) conditions. the factorial set of treatments was arranged within a randomized complete block design with three replications. the collected data were analyzed using path and factor analyses. these is results showed that bas...

the dissipated energy from periodic deformation is regarded as the main reason for heat generation and temperature rise inside the tire domain. however, the mechanical behavior of rubber parts is highly temperature dependent. in most performed investigations, the influence of thermal effects on stress/ deformation fields of pneumatic tires is ignored and just temperature distribution is conside...

Illustrating the complexity of the stress response and its multifaceted manifestations is the leading idea of this overview of experimental paradigms used for stress induction in laboratory animals. The description of key features of models based on naturalistic stressors, pharmacological challenges, and genomic manipulations is complemented by comprehensive analysis of physiological, behaviora...

In the present research, data extracted from the stress analysis of 46 finite element models, verified using test results obtained from an experimental investigation, were used to study the effect of geometrical parameters on the chord-side stress concentration factors (SCFs) of central and outer braces in uniplanar tubular KT-joints of offshore structures subjected to four different types of i...
