Abstract:

This research compared the results of three tests: ASTM D 198 torsion, ASTM D 198 three-point bending and the five-point bending test (FPBT) using machine-stress-rated (MSR) lumber and laminated veneer lumber (LVL) to determine if the shear properties evaluated by the different test methods were equivalent. Measured E:G ratios were also compared to the E:G ratio of 16:1 commonly assumed for structural wooden members. <p>The average shear moduli results showed significant differences between the three test methods. For both material types, the shear moduli results determined from the two standa

Computation simulation is a powerful tool for predictiong the mechanics models of elastic properties of armchair and zigzag single-walled nanotubes. The aim of this work is investigation and comparison of Young’s modulus, shear modulus and Poisson’s ratio variations of armchair and zigzag tubes as functions of diameter. We obtained a set of concise, closed form expressions for the size-dependent elastic modulus, shear modulus and Poisson’s ratio of armchair (n, n) and zigzag (n, 0) nanotubes, which are basic for constructing mathematical models of elastic properties of SWNTs.

Abstract:

A major concern for geotechnical engineers is the ability to predict how a soil will react to large ground motions produced by earthquakes. Of all the different types of soil, liquefiable soils present some of the greatest challenges. The ability to quantify the degradation of a soil's shear modulus as it undergoes liquefaction would help engineers design more reliably and economically. This thesis uses ground motions recorded by an array of downhole accelerometers on Port Island, Japan, during the 1995 Kobe Earthquake, to quantify the shear modulus of sand as it liquefies. It has been shown t

Abstract:

Liquefaction is a costly phenomenon where soil shear modulus degrades as the generation of excess pore pressures begins. One of the methods to mitigate liquefaction, is the use of prefabricated vertical drains. Prefabricated vertical drains provide a drainage path to effectively mitigate the generation of pore pressures and aid in shear modulus recovery. The aims of this study were to define shear modulus degradation vs. shear strain as a function of excess pore pressure ratio; define the effects of prefabricated vertical drains on the behavior of pore pressure generation vs. shear strain; and

Abstract:

Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) is an engineered wood product made by laminating dimensional or structural composite lumber in alternating orthogonal layers. Compared to Canada and Europe, CLT is a novel product to the US. With the additions included in the 2021 International Building Code (IBC), CLT material properties, especially rolling shear, would need to be explored. The increasing demand for softwood lumber, along with the increase of demand of CLT panel production, could place a burden and surpass the domestic softwood supply.

Abstract:

In composite materials, transverse shear modulus is a critical moduli parameter for designing complex composite structures. For dependable mathematical modeling of mechanical behavior of composite materials, an accurate estimate of the moduli parameters is critically important as opposed to estimates of strength parameters where underestimation may lead to a non-optimal design but still would give one a safe one. Although there are mechanical and empirical models available to find transverse shear modulus, they are based on many assumptions. In this work, the model is based on a three-dimensio

Compacted soils are frequently used as subgrade for pavements as well as commercial and residential buildings. The stiffness and shear strength properties of compacted soils, which are collectively denoted as Ω in this thesis, fluctuate with moisture content changes that result from the influence of environmental factors such as the evaporation and infiltration. For example, mechanistic pavement design methods require the information of resilient modulus (MR), which is the soil stiffness behavior under cyclic traffic loading, and its variation with respect to the soil moisture content determin

Im Rahmen diese Arbeit wurden Methoden zur Bestimmung isotroper und anisotroper Scherelastizitäten anhand von MRE Wellenbildern entwickelt und evaluiert. Alle in dieser Arbeit vorgestellten Methoden basieren auf planarer MRE, d.h. auf der Aufnahme einer einzelnen Auslenkungskomponente innerhalb der Bildschicht. Dadurch wird die MRE erheblich beschleunigt. Allerdings stellen sich dadurch auch besondere Anforderungen an die Datenauswertun

Abstract:

The modulus of aggregate base layers in pavement structures can potentially be increased through the use of geogrid. However, methods for determining how much structural benefit can be expected from a given geogrid product have not been standardized. A laboratory testing protocol is therefore needed to enable evaluation, in terms of modulus or California bearing ratio (CBR), for example, of the degree of improvement that may be achieved by a given geogrid. Consequently, the objective of this research was to identify a laboratory test method that can be used to quantify improvements in structur

Abstract:

Introduction : L’élastographie shear wave (ESW) est une technique récente d’échographie qui évalue quantitativement la dureté des tissus et permet d’améliorer la caractérisation des lésions mammaires. Comme toute nouvelle technique d’imagerie, l’ESW nécessite une validation préclinique pour définir les conditions d’utilisations et établir les limites des champs d’applications dans lesquelles la technique pourra être considérée comme valide. Matériels et méthodes : Dans une première partie effectuée au laboratoire de recherche en Imagerie nous avons étudié les éléments histologiques sous tendan

Abstract:

Doctoral thesis deals with combustion engine cranktrain vibrations and vibration analysis methods. The work applies new computational models aimed at powertrain vibration decrease. The computational models can be used in the first stages of powertrain development. Temperature dependences of the rubber shear modulus and loss factor characteristic are found by response analysis of the free damped vibrations in the first part of the thesis. Viscoelastic model parameters of two dampers with different rubber hardness are calculated using optimization methods. Temperature distribution inside the rub

Abstract:

The shear strength, elastic moduli and plastic strain characteristics of scaled-down ballast materials are investigated by use of the parallel gradation technique. Uniformly graded ballast materials chosen for the investigation are limestone, basalt and steel-slag. Steel-slag is a byproduct material of Eregli Iron and Steel Works, which is suitable to meet the durability test requirements as well as the electrical resistivity and the waste contaminants regulatory level. Conventional triaxial testing at a strain rate of 0.4 mm/min is used to obtain these characteristics for the scaled-down mate

Abstract:

The objective of this research work was to develop a methodology for experimentally estimating the interfacial properties at slag-metal interfaces. From previous experiments carried out in the division, it was decided to use surface active elements like sulfur or oxygen to trace any motion at the interface. For this purpose the following experimental investigations were carried out. Firstly the density of slag was estimated using the Archimedes Principle and the Sessile Drop technique. The density of the slag would give the molten slag height required for the surface active element to travel b

Abstract:

The main objective in this work was to learn how the instrument, the Interfacial Shear Rheometer (ISR400), worked and to investigate how the rheological properties, storage modulus (elasticity), G' and loss modulus (viscous), G'', changes when the surface pressure at the air-liquid interphase changes. The second objective were to examine the different kind of magnetic needles used in the experiments and to conclude which type of needle is best for its specific field of analysis. It was concluded that the relative heavy needle with mass 70.6 mg and length 50 mm was best for systems where the vi
