Although Column 1-R was restored to 75%% of its original flexural strength, the results can be misleading since the strength restoration was limited by the flexural capacity of the repaired cross-section section with fractured bars, because the longitudinal CFRP failed prematurely.
A cross section with uncovered strut was defined if one or more stent struts was uncovered on cross section and a cross section with uncovered strut ratio >0.3 was defined when the ratio of uncovered struts to total stent struts per cross section was more than 0.3.
RW2 with rectangular cross section and TW2 with T-shaped cross section were subjected to axial compression loads = ( 0.07A_{g} f_{c}^{{prime }} ) and ( 0.0 7 5A_{g} f_{c}^{{prime }}, ) respectively, where A g is the gross area of cross section.
The cut volume ( E_{C,i} ) and fill volume ( E_{F,i} ) are calculated for each cross section ( i ) by stratifying each section with very small intervals and calculating the cut area ( A_{C,i}^{j} ) and fill area ( A_{F,i}^{j} ) between the proposed and the existing ground for each stratum ( j ).
The cross section is oval with a concave ventral side.
The cross section samples were prepared with a cross section polisher (CSP) by means of a defocussed argon ion beam.
A total of 8 CFST columns, including 4 with circular cross sections and 4 with square cross sections, were tested under close-range blasts.
In all particle and heavy ion transport codes, the probability function that a projectile particle will collide within a certain distance x in the matter depends on the total reaction cross sections, and the calculated partial fragmentation cross sections scale with the total reaction cross sections.
Cross sections obtained with ultrasound were matched with the corresponding histologic sections.
Fiber with rectangular cross section buckles more easily than that with circular cross section because of the different flexural rigidity.
Cross sections were counterstained with 0.1% Neutral red.
