Fig. 6. A randomly chosen set of 9 predicted stress-strain curves compared to the actual stress-strain curve with the associated composite included. These examples, which are drawn from the test set, have mean squared errors in the 25–75% of the mean squared error distribution for the test...
and have achieved the generation of finite element meshes along the geometry of coarse aggregates by replacing the actual aggregates with simple artificial figures such as two-dimensional (2D) circles or polygons in [12,13,
(2010) are comparable with the figures found for uncompatibilised virgin WPCs. However, it has been noted that the research into the use of waste wood has been eclipsed by the research into the use of postconsumer plastics and recycled particle board (Ormondroyd et al., 2016; Sommerhuber...
Browse Figures Versions Notes Abstract The effects of the fly ash and of the sunflower stalks and corn cobs within a cement-matrix composite were studied under the aspects of density, compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, elasticity modulus, and resistance to repeated freeze-thaw cycles...
where it is left overnight for the bulk of the support material to melt and drain away. The parts are then removed and placed in a tank of cleaning solution and heated to 65 °C, where they are sonicated for 20 min. The parts are then rinsed with water and allowed to dry in ...
Similar reference numerals have been used wherever possible in each of the Figures to denote like components, wherein: FIG. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a lay-up used in accordance with the present invention; FIG. 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a lay-up used in...
We again found evidence that the incidence of CBP increased with increasing colour similarity (F(2, 16) = 8.023, p = 0.004, η p ² = 0.501; Fig. 4c). The raw data of participants’ responses are shown in supplementary figures (Figs S4 and S5). More importantly, mean...
Referring to FIGS. 1-3, microstructures of unique boron carbide-aluminum composites of this invention are shown. In the three figures, the sample is identical, having been subjected to a series of heating steps to the different forms shown. The lighter material is aluminum metal remaining in th...
The application of the step-stool function will also form the basis for further investigations into the causes of the non-stochastic trends evident in the residual plots (subfigures D in Figures6,7,8). It cannot be excluded that such deviations may occur as artifacts in the high-resolution ...
Browse Figures Versions Notes Abstract In recent years, Zn and its alloys have become some of the most promising degradable metals as in vivo implants due to their acceptable biocompatibility and more suitable degradation rate compared with Mg-based and Fe-based alloys. However, the degradation ra...
