In this work, experimental and numerical analyses of repairs on carbon fiber reinforced epoxy (CFRE) substrates, with CFRE and aluminum alloy doublers typical of aircraft structures, are presented. The substrates have a ...

The paper presents an attempt to predict the load carrying capacity of perforated rack columns by means of the Direct Strength Method (DSM). The investigation is focused on two different issues: the prediction of the ...

Many different robotic in-parallel structures have been conceived as six-component force sensors. In general, they perform well for most applications but, when accuracy is a must, two main limitations arise. First, in most ...

Selective Laser Sintering, and in general Additive Manufacturing Processes are becoming mature technologies; in the sense that after many years of market introduction there are some well-known manufacturers that provide ...

The classical interpretation of myocardial activation assumes that the myocardium is homogeneous and that the electrical propagation is radial. However, anatomical studies have described a layered anatomical structure ...

he beam-to-column connections in most of the pallet rack structures made of thin-walled steel sections are of the clip-on type. These connections are of a semi-rigid nature and have a non-linear moment–rotation relationship, ...

The present report describes the experimental tests carried out at LERMA to investigate the distortional buckling of steel storage channel rack columns. Previous studies by the authors (Peköz et al. 2012, Casafont et al. ...

Se estudia el comportamiento mecánico de rodillas animales que han sido congeladas en 1 o varias ocasiones mediante la aplicación de cargas axiales hasta la fractura o test destructivos. Se analizan el tipo y localización ...

Connections in x-braced shear walls play a crucial role in the seismic performance of lightweight structures: they should be strong enough to allow energy dissipation via plastification of the diagonal straps. An extensive ...
