This research presents an empirical study about the behavior of High Strength Concrete
beams under the static cyclic loading. It determines the influence of cyclic loading on the
moment capacity and deflection of HSC beams. A comparison of the mome
nt capacity and
deflection in both kinds of loading (monotonic and cyclic loading) were achieved.
High Strength Concrete mixture was designed, based on the specifications of the American
code ACI 211.4R-93. Thirty six concrete beams were prepared, nine of them were tested
under monotonic loading and the rest of beams were tested under cyclic loading. The
cyclic loading was performed for (5,10,15) cycles, at a range from zero to 65%, 75%, 85%
of the minimum expected monotonic load.
The results showed that the cyclic loading have positive effect on the flexural behavior of
HSC members, whereas the moment capacity increased and the deflection decreased,
especially at a range from zero to 75% of the minimum expected monotonic load, when
the number of cycles was 5,10,15.
The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the effect of irrigation
solutions on the dentin flexural strength .(20) extracted third molars were
gathered with age avarege (18-24) years old, and the dentine bars that will
be prepared and designed for study with similar dimensions (width 1
mm, thickness 2 mm, Length of at least 7 mm).
The importance of pantograph mechanism and four Bar one leads
to improve of two mechanisms. As we said in last papers,
decreasing maintenance and having the same goal with low weight
and no friction in nowadays artificial applications, appears as
a
needed need. The experiment refers that using flexural hinges in a
system at least leads to all of that advantages. We have a plan
mechanical system consisted of pantograph mechanism and four
bar one, with revolute and sliding joints. Then, we replace each
revolute joint with super elastic hinge. In this way, we have a gate
to build a system, strongly recommended, to achieve the same goal
using minimum energy. The main goal of this paper is to elaborate
a mathematical mechanism able to estimate the deviations of the
considered system before and after replacing revolute hinges,
taking into account the real performance of the new system through
additional large displacements in the flexural hinges.
The main purpose of this
research is to elaborate a mathematical apparatus able to estimate
the deviations of the considered system before and after replacing
revolute hinges taking into account the real performance of the
novel system through large bending displacements in the flexure
(flexural) hinges.
The too many uses of the five- bar mechanism and the seven-bar
one in novel mechanical systems, lead us to develop the action of
the both mechanisms. Compacting the both mechanisms gives
ability new mechanism with dual action. It is that the new o
ne is
better in achieving but It's more difficult in studying from the to
separately. The developing of the action appears in decreasing the
maintenance and having the same goal with low weight and no
friction. The experiment refers that using flexural hinges in a
system at least leads to all of that advantages. We have a plane
mechanical system consisted of five bar mechanism and seven bar
mechanism, with revolute joints. Then, we replace each revolute
joint with super elastic hinge. In this way, we have a gate to build a
system,strongly recommended, to achieve the same goal using
minimum energy. The main purpose of this paper is to elaborate a
mathematical mechanism able to estimate the deviations of the
considered system before and after replacing revolute hinges,
taking into account the real performance of the novel system
through additional large extra displacements in the flexural hinges.
most of companies wish to decrease maintenance and on the other
hand having the same target with low weight and no friction
although it may cost more, when a machine is built. Using
flexural(also flexure) hinges in a system, at least, leads to all
of
these advantages. Considering a planar mechanical system consists
of double seven bar mechanism with revolute joints, we replace
each revolute joint with super elastic hinge. Doing so, we have a
gate to build a system, strongly recommended, to achieve the same
goal using minimum energy. The main purpose of this paper is to
elaborate a mathematical apparatus able to estimate the deviations
of the considered system before and after replacing revolute joints
taking into account the real performance of the novel system
through large bending displacements in the flexure (flexural) hinges.
The most of companies wish to decrease maintenance and have the
same target with low weight and no friction even costs much
money, when a machine is built. Using flexural(also flexure) hinges
in a system, at least, leads to all of that advantages.

This research aims to study the efficiency of flexural strengthening of RC beams with different lengths of CFRP strips by using (NSM) technique. The study is carried out experimentally on (14) concrete beams; the variables considered are (the length
and number of CFRP strips). This is established by dividing the work into two groups: the first one includes (6) beams strengthened by variable carbon fiber strip lengths and one strip, The second group includes (6) beams strengthened by variable carbon fiber strip lengths and two strips, as well as two control beams. The results indicate that carbon fibers have a noticeable effect on increasing the bearing capacity of (NSM) strengthened beams. The results also show that strengthening the beams by CFRP and not along the length of the beam and in one layer does not contribute to increasing beam strength, but when the number of layers increases, an increase in beam strength is noticed at a rate range (40%-72%).
