Abstract:
The dynamic and static performance of a flexure-pivot tilting pad bearing is presented at a load between pad configuration for various load and speed combinations. A similar work performed on the same bearing at lower loads ranging from 0-1 MPa (0-150 psi) by Al-Ghasem was tested, whereas the current work investigates effects in the load range between 1-2.2 MPa (150-320 psi). The bearing design parameters include: 4 pads with pad arc angle 72º and 50% pivot offset, pad axial length 0.0762 m (3 in), pad radial clearance 0.254 mm (0.010 in), bearing radial clearance 190.5 µm (0.0075 in), p

Abstract:
The aim of this thesis was to investigate how to construct a system to measure load in a mobile unicompartmental knee replacement (UKR) bearing. In vivo loads have been measured in a total knee replacement (TKR), but with TKR the kinematics are different from those of the normal knee, whereas they are close to normal in a mobile UKR, so the loads measured by an instrumented UKR would be more representative of the normal knee. On the principle of measuring compression of an object under load, the load may be estimated. Compression measurement using a capacitive sensor was the optimal solution t

Because horses are animals of flight, bone fractures in the horses' limbs are quite common. When foals fracture a bone in their leg, the healthy leg is often compromised. During convalescence, the animal tends to overstress the healthy leg in an attempt to relieve the stress on the injured leg. This results in angular limb deformities, lax tendons, laminitis, and similar problems. These problems could possibly be avoided through a load-bearing device that would relieve the additional weight from the foal's limbs. <p>In order to allow for in-vitro testing of such a load-bearing device, this the

In current bridge engineering an idealized model is used to apply the parapet load to the bearing pads of a bridge. In this idealized model it is assumed that the parapet load is evenly distributed across all of the bridge bearing pads. However, this assumption is incorrect. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that the parapet load distribution is more complicated than an evenly distributed load. Instead, this study shows that a majority of the parapet load is applied to the exterior bearing pad. This means that the real world exterior bearing pad reactions will be much larger than the

In both variations load bearing structures is made of columns, garlands, ceiling beams and roof

Abstract:
Concrete block masonry is a common building material used worldwide, including Canada. Reinforced masonry buildings, designed according to the requirements of recent building codes, may result in seismically safe structures. However, unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings designed and constructed prior to the development of modern seismic design codes are extremely vulnerable to seismic induced damage. Replacement of older seismically deficient buildings with new and seismically designed structures is economically not feasible in most cases. Therefore, seismic retrofitting of deficient buildings
