  2. Concrete cone failure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_cone_failure

    Concrete cone is one of the failure modes of anchors in concrete, loaded by a tensile force. The failure is governed by crack growth in concrete, which forms a typical cone shape having the anchor's axis as revolution axis .

  3. Geon (psychology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geon_(psychology)

    Geons are the simple 2D or 3D forms such as cylinders, bricks, wedges, cones, circles and rectangles corresponding to the simple parts of an object in Biederman's recognition-by-components theory. [1] The theory proposes that the visual input is matched against structural representations of objects in the brain.

  4. Size effect on structural strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Size_Effect_on_Structural...

    A pronounced energetic size effect occurs in shear, torsional and punching failures of reinforced concrete, in pullout of anchors from concrete, in compression failure of slender reinforced concrete columns and prestressed concrete beams, in compression and tensile failures of fiber-polymer composites and sandwich structures, and in the ...

  5. Concrete slump test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_slump_test

    The test is carried out using a metal mould in the shape of a conical frustum known as a slump cone or Abrams cone, that is open at both ends and has attached handles.The tool typically has an internal diameter of 100 millimetres (3.9 in) at the top and of 200 millimetres (7.9 in) at the bottom with a height of 305 millimetres (12.0 in).The cone is placed on a hard non-absorbent surface.

  6. Material failure theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Material_failure_theory

    In materials science, material failure is the loss of load carrying capacity of a material unit. This definition introduces to the fact that material failure can be examined in different scales, from microscopic, to macroscopic. In structural problems, where the structural response may be beyond the initiation of nonlinear material behaviour ...

  8. Anchor bolt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anchor_bolt

    Splitting failure: failure is characterized by a splitting crack which divides the base material into two parts. This kind of failure occurs when the dimensions of the concrete component are limited or the anchor is installed close to an edge. Blow-out failure: failure is characterized by the lateral spalling of concrete in the proximity of the ...
