In recent years, vehicle weight reduction has been promoted from the viewpoint of environmental problems and energy saving, and the thinning and weight reduction of automobile components are being ...

Current studies have mainly focused on the effect of specific steel fibers on the shear performance of steel fiber-reinforced concrete (SFRC) slender beams. However, there has been a lack of in-depth ...

The offset shear strength is the shear stress endured by a material at the intersection of the shear stress versus the engineering shear strain curve, with a line parallel to a defined modulus and ...

Mechanical fasteners, such as screws, bolts, pins and rivets, have been used for hundreds of years to assemble wood and metal structures. As composites have replaced other materials in structural ...

A real-time hybrid fire simulation algorithm is developed and tested to capture the expected behaviour of a steel column within a structural frame, considering the slow thermal expansion of the stiff ...

Rohit Ramnath, Application Engineer at Master Bond, talks to AZoM about lap shear strength and how significant is this property for adhesives. Some of the measures of the strength for an epoxy, ...
