It is worth noting that good repeatability of the P-δ curves was observed, especially at higher values of indentation load; this results from an optimal choice of the test parameters. keywords: alloy; depth; indentation; load; material; response; stress; temperature; transformation cache: fis-137.pdf plain text: fis-137.txt item: #173 of 1704 id: fis-139 author: De Iorio, A.; Grasso, M.; Penta, F.; Pucillo, G.P. title: A three-parameter model for fatigue crack growth data analysis date: 2012 words: 2576 flesch: 50 summary: Since both methods are based on local interpolation of experimental data, irregularities and/or anomalies in the data distribution, for the first method, and the number of data points chosen for the best-fit parabola, for the second one, affect significantly the results.

Obtained results show the great influence of elastic deformation of bearing components on oil pressure distribution, compared with results for ideally rigid components obtained by Raimondi and Boyd solution.

The diagrams of Fig. 7 are also useful to indicate the minimum interference level sufficient to improve the fatigue strength for a stated remote stress; for instance, in the case of 357.5±292.5MPa of remote stress an interference level of 0.6% is high enough for increasing the fatigue strength, whereas for 357.5±292.5MPa of remote stress an interference level of about 1% is suggested. keywords: fatigue; fig; interference; point; specimens; stress cache: fis-143.pdf plain text: fis-143.txt item: #179 of 1704 id: fis-145 author: Bhagat, R.

As far as it concerns the compaction pressure/foaming temperature, the highest foaming efficiency was observed for pre- cursors with compaction pressures higher than 700 MPa and high foaming temperatures of 750 oC and 800 oC. The speci- mens with 800 oC sintering temperature introduced a slightly higher foaming efficiency and foaming rate but collapsed sooner than the specimens with 750 oC. The compression tests with the specimens with the parameters that resulted to the higher foaming efficiency provided stress-strain curves characterized by the typical initial elastic response, followed by a deformation plateau with a positive slope and finally a transition to densification. keywords: aluminium; compaction; efficiency; foaming; foams; metal; mpa; parameters; powder; process; specimens cache: fis-2616.pdf plain text: fis-2616.txt item: #993 of 1704 id: fis-2617 author: Saltas, Vassilios; Peraki, Despoina; Vallianatos, Filippos title: The use of acoustic emissions technique in the monitoring of fracturing in concrete using soundless chemical demolition agent date: 2019 words: 7646 flesch: 55 summary: A subsequent characteristic decrease of IT is observed at recording time 𝑡 43772 𝑠𝑒𝑐, i.e. after 154 sec of the cracks’ initiation (refer to Fig.8b)]. al iz ed c um ul at iv e di st rib ut io n, ( P > ) inter-event time, (s) 10-4 10-3 10-2 10-1 100 101 102 103 10-3 10-2 10-1 100 data points curve fitting (R2 = 0.996)  = 0.0482(3) keywords: agent; concrete; cracking; cracks; doi; fracture; fracturing; hits; monitoring; process; rock; specimen; time cache: fis-2617.pdf plain text: fis-2617.txt item: #994 of 1704 id: fis-2618 author: Seretis, Georgios; Polyzou, Aikaterini; Manolakos, Dimitrios; Provatidis, Christopher title: Multi-parameter analysis of curing cycle for GNPs/glass fabric/ epoxy laminated nanocomposites date: 2019 words: 5087 flesch: 50 summary: Therefore, it is expected that these three factors also affect the mechanical behavior in the case of epoxy matrix nanocomposites.

As it is expected, the highest value of the time constant τ is observed in stage D due to the considerably increased acoustic activity that is recorded in this stage (recall that, after a while, fracture of the specimen occurred).
