Sentence examples for external loadings from inspiring English sources

In addition, the PZT sensors are demonstrated to be effective for monitoring an actual surface-breaking crack in a concrete beam specimen subjected to various external loadings (compressive and flexural loading with stepwise increases).

An additional aspect to the investigation was to test the ability of surface-mount sensors to perform automated monitoring of an actual surface-breaking crack in a concrete beam subjected to various external loadings (compressive and flexural loading with stepwise increasing) (ElSafty and Abdel-Mohti 2013; Soltani et al. 2013).

Fluid structure interaction (FSI) is of major importance when describing the dynamic behaviour of nuclear pressure vessels, since the presence of confined fluid strongly influences the response of structures when subjected to external loadings, such as a seismic loading.

This suggests that non-point source controls and watershed management strategies to reduce external loadings should be implemented prior to internal P loading controls.

Site measurements have shown that slab loads re-distribute, between the slabs during the concrete curing, while the external loadings and structural geometry remain the same.

Deformation of surfaces under external loadings greatly is function of physical laws.

Our results confirmed the dominant influence of external P loadings on water quality in the reservoirs.

Therefore it could be a cost-effective solution to mitigate pipe vibrations subjected to external dynamic loadings.

Some observations are offered on the paucity of information for the dynamic properties of materials, approximations of external dynamic loadings, modelling of structural details, accuracy of experimental test programmes and the influence of several other topics, including similitude.

However, since light structures tend to be more flexible, it is necessary that the structure itself shows the ability of dissipating energy and stabilizing itself when subjected to external dynamic loadings imposed by the airflow.

However, gait analysis can calculate external joint-loading moments that are directly related to internal joint loads.
