The principal conclusions derived from this work are the following: Enforced bending of the pulling bars as the crack opens, due to the bar stiffness and the necessary compatibility between the latter and the concrete, influences the stress distribution along the specimen ligament.
"Conduct remedies are particularly difficult to enforce against a company bent on exploiting any loopholes," he said, adding that Microsoft's continued insistence that it had done nothing wrong made it clear the government could expect little cooperation.
By using inherently equilibrated stress fields as model assumptions, it is shown that only the classical membrane and bending equilibrium equations have to be enforced explicitly.
Last week's imbroglio over emails suggest that the FBI has not fully accepted that its role is to enforce laws not overlook, bend or break them.
A new set of governing equations is derived from a contracted Hellinger Reissner functional that only enforces the classical membrane and bending equations via Lagrange multipliers.
This minimum reinforcement requirement is also enforced for slab top bars because the negative bending moment may be developed over the entire slab at high temperatures.
If the tape connecting the two sets of pencils starts bending the pencils to one side, use re-enforcing tape or more tape.
