Sentence examples for crushed elements from inspiring English sources

As previously discussed, Drucker Prager yield criterion would result in the same results as Von-Mises criterion while the William-Warnke failure criterion is not appropriate as it takes away the crushed elements.

The crushed elements are removed from the model and that could lead to premature failure which is not consistent with the real behavior of reinforced concrete structures.

This paper presents the results of an experimental campaign developed with the aim of evaluating the effect of the incorporation in concrete of recycled aggregates from crushed elements produced by the precasting concrete industry.

One element each model the warp and weft yarns respectively, with the third element being a crushing element at the yarn crossover point.

The quasi-static crushing response of carbon epoxy composite hat-shaped crush elements is described herein.

The effect laminate design on the crush performance of carbon fibre/epoxy "DLR" crush elements has been experimentally investigated.

Segmented composite tubes, consisting of cotton fibre/epoxy and carbon fibre/epoxy, are shown to be particularly efficient crush elements.

Experimental investigations are carried out in order to study the effects of different tube and filler arrangements on the crushing behaviour of axially compressed tubular crush elements.

Bitubal arrangements, consisting of outer and inner profiles with foam in between, are shown to be particularly efficient crush elements, as long as global failure can be avoided.

Constraints concerning the appropriate choice of Al-foam densities are summarized, too, in order to provide an aid for the future design of 'optimally tuned' crush elements composed of tubular members and Al-foam.

With further validation, the developed stacked-shell methodology could help provide a predictive tool to characterise the energy absorption of open section crush elements and significantly reduce the cost associated with an extensive experimental material characterisation test program.
