Background: The short-time creep behavior for a series of biodegradable nanocomposites which is used as implantable device into body is a crucial factor. In the current paper, we aimed to study the effect of bioactive glass nanoparticles (BGn) on creep and creep-recovery behaviors of PLA/PCL blends at different given load and different applied temperatures. Method: A series of biodegradab...

Creep polycrystalline ice samples antifreeze glycopeptides re-accelerating or tertiary samples. Previous work grain-boundary migration consistent with this, as nucleation and growth of curves containing (AFGPs) creep that has shown obtained from the low concentrations of do not show the is found in pure ice that AFGPs inhibit in ice and the present results are tertiary creep is associated with ...

In Exp. 1, 50 sows and their litters were used to determine the effects of adding a feed flavor to the creep diet on the proportion of pigs consuming creep feed ("eaters") and preweaning performance. Sows were blocked according to parity and date of farrowing and allotted to 2 experimental treatments: 1) litters fed a creep diet with no flavor (negative control) or 2) negative control diet with...

In the Present study, attempt will be made to propose a new method for prediction of long-term essential creep of concrete utilizing some short-term creep tests under high temperature. To do so, regarding the similarities between essential creep of concrete and creep in viscoelastic materials, the time–temperature equivalence relation in viscoelastic materials is evaluated for concrete. This re...

The effects of surface pretreatment on the rate of scribe-creep caused by underpaint corrosion on coated AA2024-T3 (UNS A92024) were investigated. Scribe-creep experiments were conducted on epoxy polyamide-coated (average coating thickness: ~10 μm) AA2024-T3 in 80% relative humidity at 25°C, 40°C, and 50°C. Scribe-creep was observed to be enhanced by exposure test temperature regardless of surf...

A study was conducted to characterize the microstructure of electron beam welds in high purity niobium and its effect on creep behaviour at room temperature. The parent material was 2mm sheet with a 50 μm grain size. The weld fusion zone had ~ 1mm grains, implying that these grains all intersected the free surface. The parent material showed no room temperature creep deformation below the yield...

mechanism and factors influencing on creep behavior of clay soil have not been understood yet due to its complex structure. in this paper, to investigate the affecting parameters on the creep behavior of the clay soils such as stress level, over consolidated pressure and water pressure, odeometr test are performed in states of single stage, stepwise and overloaded-unloaded and the creep mechani...

Silicon in single crystal form has been the material of choice for the first demonstration of the MIT microengine project. However, because it has a relatively low melting temperature, silicon is not an ideal material for the intended operational environment of high temperature and stress. In addition, preliminary work indicates that single crystal silicon has a tendency to undergo localized de...

materials exhibit significant creep behavior at temperatures above 40% of their absolute melt temperature. lead, tin and their alloys are such materials which experience significant creep behavior in room temperature. one of the most important applications of the tin-lead alloys is soldering electronic circuits in electronic industry, and for lead are isolation walls and wet batteries. room tem...

Original scientific paper The nonlinear creep characteristics of typical clays in the coastal area of Tianjin were studied by consolidated-undrained triaxial creep tests. The tests were performed via the stepwise loading method, and the creep curves of the soft clays under different stress states were obtained from the raw data processed by Chen and Kang’s method. The experiments showed that th...
