  2. Axial loading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_loading

    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]

  3. Channelling (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channelling_(physics)

    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.

  4. P-delta effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P-Delta_Effect

    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.

  5. Critical plane analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_plane_analysis

    Modern procedures for critical plane analysis trace back to research published in 1973 in which M. W. Brown and K. J. Miller observed that fatigue life under multiaxial conditions is governed by the experience of the plane receiving the most damage, and that both tension and shear loads on the critical plane must be considered.

  6. Poisson's ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson's_ratio

    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.

  7. Buckling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckling

    A load at any other point in the cross section is known as an eccentric load. A short column under the action of an axial load will fail by direct compression before it buckles, but a long column loaded in the same manner will fail by springing suddenly outward laterally (buckling) in a bending mode.

  8. Box–Behnken design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box–Behnken_design

    These designs can be augmented with positive and negative "axial points", as in central composite designs, but, in this case, to estimate univariate cubic and quartic effects, with length α = min(2, (int(1.5 + K/4)) 1/2), for K factors, roughly to approximate original design points' distances from the centre.

  9. Bent's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bent's_rule

    Bent's rule can be extended to rationalize the hybridization of nonbonding orbitals as well. On the one hand, a lone pair (an occupied nonbonding orbital) can be thought of as the limiting case of an electropositive substituent, with electron density completely polarized towards the central atom.
