Anisotropic Compressive Response Of Stone Thrower Wales Defects

An elderly female patient presented to the emergency department with obvious deformity in the distal aspect of her forearm following a fall onto her left arm. The patient had fallen backwards onto her left side and landed on her wrist which was in a flexed position. Due to the way the patient had fallen, as well as her age, the primary pathology the doctor had suspected was a Smith’s fracture (also known as a reverse Colles fracture). “Smith fractures are fractures of the distal radius with associated palmar angulation of the distal fracture fragment” (Goel & Gaillard, 2015, para. 1). An x-ray was required to determine if it was a Smith’s fracture or another type of fracture. If the fracture turned out to be

Crumple zones are structural areas in the front, sometimes rear of a vehicle that are designed to absorb energy upon impact in a predictable way.

Throughout history, the U.S. military has enjoyed a reputation of being one of the most respected and reliable organizations in the United States. Although the military continues to make every effort to achieve excellence, the very real threat of drawdowns and budget cuts have constrained and forced leaders to change the way they conduct business. Even though the objective remains to be building a stronger and superior force, the latest changes to policy have ushered in a destructive zero-defect attitude within its ranks.

A Volcano is a mountain or hill that has a crater running through it filled with lava, rocks, gas and hot vapour that will erupt. There are three types of volcanoes, there is the Cinder Cone volcano which is the smallest, the Shield volcano which is in most cases the biggest and the Composite volcano which can be the most deadly.

Your research is almost like mines except you seek to find out the relationship between benefit/offending , while mines look to try and understand if general strain theory causes individuals to do offensive deeds.

Graphene synthesis usually utilise a method called exfoliation, which is defined as taking the outermost layer of graphite. There are three major types of exfoliation: chemical, mechanical, and thermal. The paper mainly focuses on chemical and mechanical exfoliation for graphene synthesis, which are the methods with highest number of experiments done.

Initial cracks were observed at top and bottom part of the sample where the maximum stress occurred. Through observation, there is no significant lateral expansion on the grout samples. The noticeable deformation surface failure is obviously shown on tested grout. The sample displayed split inclined crack at the top of the sample. The neat epoxy grout also exhibits sudden rupture as compared to graphene-based epoxy grout.

What is graphene? According to Merriam-Webster, graphene is defined as “an extremely electrical conductive form of elemental carbon that is composed of a single flat sheet of carbon atoms arranged in a repeating hexagonal lattice

There are many different types of volcanos on Earth. All of these volcanoes have differing characteristics and features. Three types of volcanoes are Cinder Cone, Shield and Composite.

As was mentioned in the previous topic of crumple zones inertia plays a great part in car crashes. When a car comes to an abrupt stop the driver continues to move in the car’s direction, this is because of inertia the resistance to a change in speed or direction of travel. Newton’s first law states an object at rest will stay at rest also unless acted upon by an external force conversely an object that is moving will keep moving in the same direction and speed unless acted upon by a external force the external force being the seat belt. This is because the velocities of the car and passenger are independent. The seat belt spreads this stopping force over a larger area as a result preventing the driver’s body from hitting the windshield or steering

Superior dislocations: Also called, central dislocations can result from a direct blow to a partially opened mouth. This type of trauma can lead to upward migration of the condylar head which in turn can result in fracture of the glenoid fossa with condyle dislocation into the middle skull base. Furthermore, this type of dislocation can result in more serious injuries like facial nerve injury, intracranial hematomas, cerebral contusion, leakage of CSF, and impairment to the eighth cranial nerve which is can lead to deafness.

Graphite is one of the softest known materials, while diamond is the hardest known material.

Metal caps are cemented to the end-surfaces of the samples so that tensile load can be applied to the samples until failure.

Graphene is a form of carbon which has recently been receiving a great deal of attention. Some have come to call it “the wonder material” due to its many extraordinary properties. Although isolated in 2004, graphene's properties had been calculated decades earlier. It consists of a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal lattice. A single sheet of graphene is stronger than steel and yet remains very flexible, retaining all of its properties despite being bent and unbent multiple times. It is able to sustain extremely high electric current densities, is impermeable to all gasses, has a thermal conductivity double that of diamond and a very high electron mobility at room temperature. It is also easily chemically functionalized,

Composite materials are generally made up of different components at Micro/Nano-scales that can have dissimilar shape and properties, which together, they provide us with desired properties at Macro-scale. Prediction and measurement of the Macro-scale properties of composites, which are known as effective properties, has been the target of many investigations in the last few decades. Researchers have engineered diverse solutions for estimating statistically equivalent properties of composite materials through methods of homogenization [1]–[3]. The long history of exploration of analytical approaches for homogenization of reinforced composites has already provided us with a rich and practical library of solutions, and this
