Earth experiences growing mechanical stress from carbon emissions, revealing hidden climate thresholds and system weakening.

When you're mentally exhausted, your brain might be doing more behind the scenes than you think. In a new study using functional MRI, researchers uncovered two key brain regions that activate when ...

This paper presents a study on the compressive behavior of steel fiber-reinforced concrete. In this study, an analytical model for stress-strain curve for steel fiber-reinforced concrete is derived ...

Bending tester in reciprocating motion is adopted to study the fatigue resistance and fatigue life of indium tin oxide (ITO) films deposited on poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PET) substrate with ...

TITLE: An Rapid Assessment Method for Bearing Capacity of RC Girder Bridges Based on Residual Strain AUTHORS: Ming Zhong KEYWORDS: Bridge Engineering, Reinforced Concrete, Fatigue Damage, Unloading ...

Solder joints in electronic assemblies are often subjected to cyclic (positive/negative) mechanical strains and stresses. Such exposures can occur in variable temperature application environments or ...

As can be seen from the stress-strain curve under cyclic loading, with the increase of testing time, the loading curve and unloading curve no longer overlaps. The curve in the loading stage is above ...

ABSTRACT This work analyses the methodology "A" (item A.4) employed by the Brazilian Standard ABNT 8522 (ABNT, 2008) for determining the stress-strain behavior of cylindrical specimens of concrete, ...
