vibration generated by vehicles during road transport has an important effect on the agricultural products damage process, particularly vegetable and fruit. modulus of elasticity is one of the most important mechanical properties of fruits and its variation can be described as one of the damage criteria during transportation. this research was conducted to evaluate the effects of vibration para...

the deformation modulus of a rock mass is an important input parameter in any analysis of rock mass behavior for geotechnical projects such as dams. the determination of this parameter by in situ tests are time consuming and expensive. therefore, different researchers have proposed empirical relationships for estimating the value of rock mass deformation modulus. this work has been done by usin...

introduction: resin composites are an important part of restorative treatment in modern dentistry. there are many trademarks available in iran market and physico-chemical properties of many of these resin composites are not evaluated yet. this study was carried out to evaluate the physico-chemical properties of four available resin composites and also to assess the effect of aging on their prop...

The permanent deformation pavement of roads and streets at tropical zones Abstract (if layers are sufficiently compacted) is due to increase of asphalt layers temperature and consequential decrease of modulus of elasticity. Therefore, the asphalt mixture moves aside of the wheels of heavy vehicles and cause permanent deformations without volume variation. On the other hand, if the asphalt layer...

in this study, to determine poisson’s ratio and modulus of elasticity of white seedless grapes during maturation, the fresh fruit samples were harvested from a vineyard at seven sequential weeks from 6th september to 18th october. in each run, six grape berries were randomly selected and the static loading test and digital photography were done together. considering true shape of the fruit and ...

this study was carried out to determine the effect of seed growing regions and loading speed on some mechanical properties of castor seed. these properties are used to design and improve related machines such as expeller that are used for extraction of oil from castor seed. mechanical properties of castor seed were expressed in terms of rupture force and energy, bio-yield force, apparent modulu...

the acrylated epoxidized soy oil (aeso) was synthesized from epoxidized soy oil and its properties were investigated.  wheat straw particle boards were produced by the synthesized resin with 8% and 13% contents based on straws weight at three pressing times: 8,10 and 12 min. boards’ modulus of rapture, modulus of elasticity, internal bonding, minimum degree of thickness change and water absorpt...
