Axial loading is defined as applying a force on a structure directly along a given axis of said structure. [1] In the medical field, the term refers to the application of weight or force along the course of the long axis of the body. [2] The application of an axial load on the human spine can result in vertebral compression fractures. [3]
A material balance on the differential volume of a fluid element, or plug, on species i of axial length dx between x and x + dx gives: [accumulation] = [in] - [out] + [generation] - [consumption] Accumulation is 0 under steady state; therefore, the above mass balance can be re-written as follows: 1.
Compressive stress (or compression) is the stress state caused by an applied load that acts to reduce the length of the material (compression member) along the axis of the applied load; it is, in other words, a stress state that causes a squeezing of the material. A simple case of compression is the uniaxial compression induced by the action of ...
For example, the tert-butyl group (A-value=4.9) has a larger A-value than the trimethylsilyl group (A-value=2.5), yet the tert-butyl group actually occupies less space. This difference can be attributed to the longer length of the carbon–silicon bond as compared to the carbon–carbon bond of the tert -butyl group.
P-delta is a moment found by multiplying the force due to the weight of the structure and applied axial load, P, by the first-order deflection, Δ or δ. NUMERICAL EXAMPLE OF P DELTA EFFECT ON A CALCULATOR You have a 1 meter tall rigid vertical rod that rotates on a hinge at the bottom of the rod. There is a 1 newton load on the top of the rod.
Poisson's ratio of a material defines the ratio of transverse strain (x direction) to the axial strain (y direction)In materials science and solid mechanics, Poisson's ratio (symbol: ν ()) is a measure of the Poisson effect, the deformation (expansion or contraction) of a material in directions perpendicular to the specific direction of loading.
The curve () describes the deflection of the beam in the direction at some position (recall that the beam is modeled as a one-dimensional object). is a distributed load, in other words a force per unit length (analogous to pressure being a force per area); it may be a function of , , or other variables.
In condensed-matter physics, channelling (or channeling) is the process that constrains the path of a charged particle in a crystalline solid. [1] [2] [3]Many physical phenomena can occur when a charged particle is incident upon a solid target, e.g., elastic scattering, inelastic energy-loss processes, secondary-electron emission, electromagnetic radiation, nuclear reactions, etc.
