Table 5, Table 6, Table 7, Table 8 indicate that the P-values for both temperature and conditioning duration are below 0.05 (meaning F crit < F). This suggests that conditioning temperature and duration both can affect the tensile strength retention of GFRP stirrups when subjected to wet-dry...
in the sense of their commonly defined meanings, but to include by special definition in this specification: structure, material or acts beyond the scope of the commonly defined meanings. Thus if an element can be understood in the context of this specification as including more than one meaning...
considered in all respects as illustrative and not restrictive, the scope of the invention being indicated by the appended claims rather than by the foregoing description, and all changes which come within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are therefore intended to be embraced ...
This model assumes that the steel material exhibits linear elastic behavior, meaning that it deforms elastically under applied loads and returns to its original shape once the load is removed. This simplification allows for a straightforward analysis of the impactor and support system. It is a ...
"stirrup leather" is a generally accepted term in the equestrian community. The meaning of the term is a leather strap which connects the stirrup iron to the saddle at a stirrup bar. It will be understood that the upper end of the stirrup leather connects to the stirrup bar, while the lo...
Despite this, the majority of the shear strength calculation approaches and models for UHPC members are empirical formulas that stem from experimental results and mathematical formulas, lacking explicit physical meaning [31]. Furthermore, the current research rarely focuses on the shear bearing capacity...
