one important application of fiber reinforced polymer (frp) is to confine concrete as frp jackets in seismic retrofit process of reinforced concrete structures. confinement can improve concrete properties such as compressive strength and ultimate axial strain. for the safe and economic design of frp jackets, the stress-strain behavior of frp-confined concrete under monotonic and cyclic compress...

conclusions in light of our findings, we concluded that ra function is severely diminished in adult patients with tof. it would play an important role in pathophysiological process of the right sided heart failure in these patients. results the myocardial velocities and deformational indices of ra free wall were significantly compromised in tof patients compared with normal subjects. there was ...

in the hot compression test friction has a detrimental influence on the flow stress through the process and therefore, correcting the deformation curve for real behavior is very important for both researchers and engineers. in this study, a series of compression tests were simulated using abaqus software. in this study, it has been employed the taguchi method to design experiments by the factor...

genetic typing methods of t. gondii strains have been extensively perfected in recent years. from a technical point of view, many tools usable for genetic studied on single-copy loci have been used: rflp, pcr-rflp, sequencing, rapd-pcr and isoenzyme analysis. we described the cloning and sequence analysis of the gene which encodes the major surface antigen (sag1 or p30) of t. gondii. sag1 is th...

processing map for hot working of ti-if steel has been developed in the temperature range of 750 to 1100 °cand strain rate of 0.01 to 100 s-1. this map in the austenite region exhibits a single domain with a peak efficiencyof 45% occurring at 1025 °c and strain rate of 0.02 s-1. the domain extends over the temperature range of 1000to 1100 °c and strain rate range of 0.01 to 1 s-1. the true stre...

In the slitting method, a small width slit is created incrementally through the thickness of the stressed specimen and the released strains in each increment are recorded by a strain gauge. Compliance coefficients relate the measured strains to the residual stresses. This paper investigates the important parameters influencing the calculation of compliance coefficients for isotropic plates and ...

Background and Aim: Dental implants with angled abutments are often inserted in the anterior maxillary region due to the status of the residual ridge and aesthetic considerations. The purpose of this study was to assess stress and strain distributions in the premaxillary bone around dental implants by means of finite element analysis (FEA). Materials and Methods: Four three-dimensional (3D) fi...

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...
