In this article, the time-dependent stress redistribution analysis of magneto-electro-elastic (MEE) thick-walled sphere subjected to mechanical, electrical, magnetic and uniform temperature gradient as well as moisture concentration gradient is presented. Combining constitutive equations of MEE with stress-strain relations as well as strain-displacement relations results in obtaining a differen...

OBJECTIVES To evaluate the viscoelastic properties of demineralized dentin matrix. Stress-relaxation studies were done on matrices in tension and strain elongation or creep studies were done in both tension and compression. METHODS Mid-coronal dentin disks were prepared from extracted unerupted human third molars. Disks were 0.5 mm thick for stress-relaxation or tensile creep experiments and ...

Seasonal Sensible Thermal Energy Storages based on existing inside structures are cost effective and require insulation materials with high performance. The must endure temperatures pressure for a long period. In this study, the creep effects of material XPS (extruded polystyrene foam) at investigated to determine whether is suitable be applied STES. Two studies were conducted: an isothermal lo...

In this paper, the short-term creep behavior of the Inconel-713C superalloy after different pre-treatments including the ageing and forging processes has been studied at 850 °C. The ageing heat treatment was heating at 930 °C for 16 hours without solutioning process. The optical microscopy (OM) and the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques were applied for microstructural evaluations. T...

Coal pillars from old mines undergo creep, a type of time?dependent deformation. Research on underground engineering stability coal has increasingly focused long?term strength as an important mechanical index the creep characteristics pillars. This study performed conventional triaxial compression and tests anthracite under different confining pressures. The law was studied according to test re...

the creep/recovery behavior of wood flour-polypropylene was compared with medium density fiberboard (mdf) and particleboard. for this purpose, wood flour-polypropylene composites (with and without compatibilizer)were manufactured by using a laboratory twin-screw extruder. the mdf and particleboard panels were obtained from local producers. short term flexural creep tests at 30% of ultimate bend...

the influence of flour content and immersion time in water on the creep behavior of composites made from high density polyethylene (hdpe) waste and mdf (medium density fiberboard) flour was investigated. mixing was carried out by a twin screw extruder and the sample was manufactured by flat hot press. firstly, the modulus of elasticity and bending strength of various mdf flour-polyethylene comp...

In this study, a novel multiscale combined creep strain and creep rupture model is proposed. By comparing to experimental data it was shown that the model provides accurate creep rupture predictions for unidirectional off-axis specimens. The creep strain model provides accurate predictions within the confines of the linear elastic restrictions used in its development. This creep strain and cree...

This paper characterized bovine extraocular muscles (EOMs) using creep, which represents long-term stretching induced by a constant force. After preliminary optimization of testing conditions, 20 fresh EOM samples were subjected to four different loading rates of 1.67, 3.33, 8.33, and 16.67%/s, after which creep was observed for 1,500 s. A published quasilinear viscoelastic (QLV) relaxation fun...
