In analytical studies, step (Heaviside) function is used to simulate an impact load. However, in real behaviour of materials, loading and unloading take a short time. The present study discusses analytically the effects ...

Purpose of this study is to obtain failure modes and failure loads of two Parallel pin loaded holes in unidirectional glass fibre/epoxy by adding nanoclay in the absence of nanoclay composite laminates using finite element ...

The use of parallel mechanisms in the structure of 3D printers are developing. Parallel mechanisms have excellent capabilities in terms of accuracy, stiffness and high load-bearing capacity. This article studies a 3D printer ...

Sometimes, suddenly or gradually structural or nonstructural damages are created in structure's members due to natural or unnatural reasons like earthquake or corrosion. One of the methods used from the early in last decade ...

In the present study Charpy impact tests on a 7075-T651 aluminium alloy with full size (55×10×10 mm) with different notch tip radius (range of 0.19 to 0.40 mm) were conducted and the fracture energy was measured. The ...

Functionally Graded Materials (FGMs) can be described by continuous variation in structure and composition over volume, resulting in corresponding changes in the properties of the material. These kinds of materials are ...

Surgeries, such as orthopedic surgeries, are always performed with the use of a free hand with the aid of a fluoroscopic device to drill and place the screw in the bone position. However, such surgeries are of high risk ...

A robot detects its surroundings through camera information and its response requires a high-speed image process. Due to the increasing application of vision systems, various algorithms have been developed to increase speed ...
