A simplified model is proposed which incorporates the relative shear tie deformation as well as the tie's constitutive properties.
Standard design practices do not consider the constitutive properties of the tie, compatibility of the wythes, or locations of the ties within the panel.
The effect of salt on long-term well integrity is tied to the constitutive behavior of the salt, and more specifically, to its creep rate.
Both agree, however, that a work of art is a re-performable object tied to a constitutive abstract structure.
The only known mechanism that we could partially tie with the constitutive uPAR endocytosis is macropinocytosis.
As most bridges are constructed with seismic tie-down bars, their constitutive behavior was obtained experimentally.
The constitutive interaction of ANG-1 with Tie-2 maintains the integrity and quiescent nature of the mature vascular enthothelium [23], [24].
As the bulk modulus represents the tissue's resistance to compression, its value is tied to the other cardiac constitutive parameters.
He thus develops a theory of "knowledge-constitutive interests" that are tied both to "the natural history of the human species" and to "the imperatives of the socio-cultural form of life," but are not reducible to them (ibid., 168).
Numerous types and configurations of shear ties (many of them proprietary) are available with a large range of constitutive properties, and thus the response of a wall panel can vary based on the type of tie used in its construction.
