The triaxial compressive response of bituminous mixes with volume fractions of aggregate in the range 52 to 85% was investigated over a wide range stresses and strain rates. The types of loadings considered include triaxial ...

In this paper we study the response of bodies that are residually stressed within the context of a new class of constitutive relations, wherein the strains are assumed to be functions of the stresses. Such bodies are said ...

This work present a study of glulam beams reinforced with FRP. It was developed a theoretical model that calculates strength and stiffness of the beams. The model allows for the calculation of the bending moment, the ...

This work presents the design and development of a remote monitoring system for the blades' strain in a small wind turbine (SWT). The monitoring system allows real-time transmission of the stress to a remote client which ...

The authors have investigated strain relaxation in InAsInGaAsInP nanowires (NW's). Transmission electron microscopy images show an additional stress field attributed to compositional modulation in the ternary layer, which ...

The glued-laminated lumber (glulam) technique is an efficient process for making rational use of wood. Fiber-Reinforced Polymers (FRPs) associated with glulam beams provide significant gains in terms of strength and ...
