Foreign object damage (FOD) occurs when hard, millimeter-sized objects such as gravel or sand and even the pieces of the engine components are ingested into aircraft jet engines. Particles impacting blades produce small indentation craters which can become sites for fatigue crack initiation, severely limiting the lifetime of the blade. In this study, the impact on the edge of a thin plate is in...

Structural analysis of atherosclerotic coronary arteries has suggested that stress concentrations are associated with plaque rupture and that these stress concentrations are critically dependent on the geometry and mechanical properties of the fibrous cap and lipid pool. Recent clinical trials of lipid-lowering therapy have shown a significant reduction in cardiac events associated with plaque ...

The aim of the present study is the prediction of critical conditions (including critical strain and flow stress) for the initiation of dynamic recrystallization during thermo-mechanical processing of plain carbon steels. For this propose, torsion tests were conducted at different temperature (1050, 1100 and 1150˚C) and strain rates (0.002, 0.02 and 0.2/s). All flow curves showed a peak st...

study on the seismic behavior of piled rafts and pile groups while the same amount of construction material and excavation is used in their construction, are the main objective of this research. the process where the raft interaction with soil can affect the seismic response and stress distribution is also discussed in the current study. by means, abaqus software was applied for the finite elem...

Abstract The yield stress of mud is the basis for analyzing flow and desilting debris flow. Nanyang expansive soil was used as experimental materials, rheological curves with different solid volume concentrations were obtained by using scanning experiment Antonpa mcr702 rheometer. For slurry concentration, change process shear rate analyzed. According to results, divided into three stages: grow...

Recent studies have revealed that cytoplasmic processing bodies (P-bodies) play important roles in the control of eukaryotic gene expression in response to stress. Since the formation of P-bodies is in dynamic competition with translation, the status of translation is reflected in the assembly and disassembly of P-bodies in eukaryotic cells. During the brewing of Japanese sake and the making of...
