  2. Concrete cone failure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_cone_failure

    The tension failure loads predicted by the CCD method fits experimental results over a wide range of embedment depth (e.g. 100 – 600 mm). [2] Anchor load bearing capacity provided by ACI 349 does not consider size effect, thus an underestimated value for the load-carrying capacity is obtained for large embedment depths.

  3. Screw theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screw_theory

    Important theorems of screw theory include: the transfer principle proves that geometric calculations for points using vectors have parallel geometric calculations for lines obtained by replacing vectors with screws; [1] Chasles' theorem proves that any change between two rigid object poses can be performed by a single screw; Poinsot's theorem ...

  4. Structural engineering theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_engineering_theory

    Strength depends upon material properties. The strength of a material depends on its capacity to withstand axial stress, shear stress, bending, and torsion.The strength of a material is measured in force per unit area (newtons per square millimetre or N/mm², or the equivalent megapascals or MPa in the SI system and often pounds per square inch psi in the United States Customary Units system).

  5. Capstan equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capstan_equation

    The capstan equation [1] or belt friction equation, also known as Euler–Eytelwein formula [2] (after Leonhard Euler and Johann Albert Eytelwein), [3] relates the hold-force to the load-force if a flexible line is wound around a cylinder (a bollard, a winch or a capstan).

  6. Mechanical advantage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_advantage

    As an example, using a block and tackle with six rope sections and a 600 lb load, the operator of an ideal system would be required to pull the rope six feet and exert 100 lb F of force to lift the load one foot. Both the ratios F out / F in and V in / V out show that the IMA is six. For the first ratio, 100 lb F of force input results in 600 ...

  7. Strength of materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_of_materials

    The strength of materials is determined using various methods of calculating the stresses and strains in structural members, such as beams, columns, and shafts. The methods employed to predict the response of a structure under loading and its susceptibility to various failure modes takes into account the properties of the materials such as its yield strength, ultimate strength, Young's modulus ...

  8. Simple machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_machine

    The screw's self-locking property is the reason for its wide use in threaded fasteners like bolts and wood screws In many simple machines, if the load force F out {\displaystyle F_{\textrm {out}}} on the machine is high enough in relation to the input force F in {\displaystyle F_{\textrm {in}}} , the machine will move backwards, with the load ...

  9. Johnson's parabolic formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnson's_parabolic_formula

    Graph of Johnson's parabola (plotted in red) against Euler's formula, with the transition point indicated. The area above the curve indicates failure. The Johnson parabola creates a new region of failure. In structural engineering, Johnson's parabolic formula is an empirically based equation for calculating the critical buckling stress of a column.
