An international team of researchers have observed a phenomenon called virtual melting in colloidal crystals. They studied how it helps enable changes from one crystalline structure to another ...

Shear forces and bending moments are resultants which are used to conveniently represent the internal forces that develop within a beam when external loads are acting on it.

This study considers a linear function in this diagram because it uses NGHL. Finally, the numerical results were obtained using the aforementioned constitutive equation for the axial problem, ...

Li et al. (2013) verified the uniqueness of the pole point for Mohr’s circle of stress by using an indirect proof and pointed out that the positive shear stress should conform to a counterclockwise ...

The thickness of concrete coating on a large-diameter offshore pipeline may be up to eight times the wall thickness of its steel pipe, requiring that its effects on the stiffness, stresses, and ...

Conclusion To avoid problems with strain and stress in 3D-IC and multi-die designs, industry experts highlight key areas: Early thermal analysis and planning. Thermal issues need to be considered very ...

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that can occur after a person experiences a traumatic event such as a car accident. PTSD symptoms may include flashbacks ...

Advanced design and manufacturing drive the need for nanomechanical testing because material properties depend on microstructures. During material elastic deformation, the strain increases in ...

Stress versus strain First, in common language, stress and strain get used interchangeably. However, in materials science and engineering, this is not the case. Stress is the amount of force applied ...
