This paper presents a design methodology for equal-width RHS X-joints failing by side wall buckling, with a particular focus on the effect of a compressive chord pre-load.
The dominant failure mode in specimens without manufacturing defects was fiber-failure, whereas joints failing prematurely demonstrated adhesive failure.
In this study the fatigue strength of fillet welded tube-to-plate joints failing at the weld root and subjected to multi-axial stress states is investigated.
By using the developed empirical relationship, the fatigue life of GMAW cruciform joints failing from root region was predicted at 95% confidence level.
Empirical relationship was developed to predict the fatigue life of gas metal arc welded (GMAW) cruciform joints failing from root region.
Mathematical models have been developed to predict the fatigue life of shielded metal arc welded (SMAW) and flux cored arc welded (FCAW) cruciform joints failing from root and toe regions.
The prosecution contended that executives set up a bogus sale of an interest in a failing joint venture with Blockbuster to provide video-on-demand.
The diagnosis of gout was considered accurate if there was documentation on urate crystals aspirated from an affected joint or, failing this, if the clinical characteristics recorded were sufficient to fulfill the ACR diagnostic criteria of gout [ 10].
Veteran England marksman Mick Gault bowed out of Glasgow 2014 as a joint record holder after failing to add a final medal in the 50m air pistol.
Population aging in recent years has increased the number of people needing orthoses to assist or rehabilitate a failing joint or limb.
