ZusammenfassungZur Überprüfung der Nervenleitfähigkeit werden Kraft, Reflexe und Sensibilität getestet. Bei der Untersuchung der Mechanosensitivität eines Nervs kommen neurodynamische Tests zum Einsatz. Der Upper Limb Neural Tension Test (ULNT) 1 bestimmt die Mechanosensitivität des N. medianus.Ziel der Studie war die Untersuchung der Intertester-Reliabilität des ULNT 1 von nicht spezialisierten Physiotherapeuten bei Probanden mit unilateralen Nacken- und/oder Armsymptomen.Die Therapeuten beurteilten binär und metrisch die Kriterien patientenspezifische Symptome, strukturelle Differenzierung und Bewegungsausmaß sowie das Gesamtergebnis bei 33 Patienten mit unilateralen Nacken- und/oder Armsymptomen. Bei den binären Daten bestimmte der Fleiss-Kappa und bei den metrischen Daten der Intraklassen-Korrelationskoeffizient die Reliabilität. Die zusätzlich erstellten Regressionsmodelle sollten den Einfluss der einzelnen Beurteilungskriterien auf die Gesamtentscheidung herausfiltern.Mit Ausnahme der Reproduzierbarkeit patientenspezifischer Symptome scheint die Beurteilung des ULNT 1 durch nicht spezialisierte Therapeuten nur schlecht vergleichbar zu sein. Da die metrische Bewertungsweise die individuellen Schwellenwerte besser darstellt, ist diese der binären vorzuziehen.

AbstractDuctile fracture of metal often occurs in the plastic forming process of parts. The establishment of ductile fracture criterion can effectively guide the selection of process parameters and avoid ductile fracture of parts during machining. The 3D ductile fracture envelope of AA6063-T6 was developed to predict and prevent its fracture. Smooth round bar tension tests were performed to characterize the flow stress, and a series of experiments were conducted to characterize the ductile fracture firstly, such as notched round bar tension tests, compression tests and torsion tests. These tests cover a wide range of stress triaxiality (ST) and Lode parameter (LP) to calibrate the ductile fracture criterion. Plasticity modeling was performed, and the predicted results were compared with corresponding experimental data to verify the plasticity model after these experiments. Then the relationship between ductile fracture strain and ST with LP was constructed using the modified Mohr–Coulomb (MMC) model and Bai-Wierzbicki (BW) model to develop the 3D ductile fracture envelope. Finally, two ductile damage models were proposed based on the 3D fracture envelope of AA6063. Through the comparison of the two models, it was found that BW model had better fitting effect, and the sum of squares of residual error of BW model was 0.9901. The two models had relatively large errors in predicting the fracture strain of SRB tensile test and torsion test, but both of the predicting error of both two models were within the acceptable range of 15%. In the process of finite element simulation, the evolution process of ductile fracture can be well simulated by the two models. However, BW model can predict the location of fracture more accurately than MMC model.

Modelling Approach

The maintenance of large aging infrastructure across the world creates serious technical, environmental, and economic challenges. Ultra-high performance fibre-reinforced concretes (UHPFRC) are a new generation of materials with outstanding mechanical properties as well as very high durability due to their extremely low permeability. These properties open new horizons for the sustainable rehabilitation of aging concrete structures. Since UHPFRC is a young and evolving material, codes are still either lacking or incomplete, with recent design provisions proposed in France, Switzerland, Japan, and Australia. However, engineers and public agencies around the world need resources to study, model, and rehabilitate structures using UHPFRC. As an effort to contribute to the efficient use of this promising material, this paper presents a new numerical modelling approach for UHPFRC-strengthened concrete members. The approach is based on the Diverse Embedment Model within the global framework of the Disturbed Stress Field Model, a smeared rotating-crack formulation for 2D modelling of reinforced concrete structures. This study presents an adapted version of the DEM in order to capture the behaviour of UHPFRC by using a small number of input parameters. The model is validated with tension tests from the literature and is then used to model UHPFRC-strengthened elements. The paper will discuss the formulation of the model and will provide validation studies with various tests of beams, columns and walls from the literature. These studies will demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed modelling approach.

This is the second paper in a series relating to stochastic methods in mechanical design. The first is entitled, “Some Property Data and Corresponding Weibull Parameters for Stochastic Mechanical Design,” and the third, “Some Stochastic Mechanical Design Applications.” When data are sparse, many investigators prefer employing coordinate transformations to rectify the data string, and a least-square regression to seek the best fit. Such an approach introduces some bias, which the method presented here is intended to reduce. With mass-produced products, extensive testing can be carried out and prototypes built and evaluated. When production is small, material testing may be limited to simple tension tests or perhaps none at all. How should a designer proceed in order to achieve a reliability goal or to assess a design to see if the goal has been realized? The purpose of this paper is to show how sparse strength data can be reduced to distributional parameters with less bias and how such information can be used when designing to a reliability goal.

The coefficient of permeability of hydraulic asphalt concrete is in the range 10−8–10−10 cm/s. Laboratory test results show that triaxial specimens in axial compression can undergo axial strains up to 18% without any significant increase in permeability until approaching the compressive strength. For temperatures between 5 and 20 °C and strain rates between 2 × 10−3%/s and 5 × 10−3%/s, conventional hydraulic asphalt concrete can tolerate 1%–3% tensile strains before cracking in direct tension tests and strains up to 3%–4% in bending. At 20 °C the tensile and bending strains at cracking are 2–4 times higher than those at 0 °C, and at −20 °C they are approximately 0.2% and 0.8%, respectively. Asphalt concrete possesses pronounced crack self-healing properties. In the experiments, the crack leakage rate dropped 1–4 orders of magnitude within a few hours and the cracked specimens regained 55% of the intact tensile strength after only 1 day of self-healing. In summary, the comprehensive series of laboratory tests documents that asphalt concrete has characteristics that make the material extremely well suited for use in impervious barriers in dams, and the test results reported herein can be of great use in barrier design.

The main purpose of this paper is to study the orthotropic plastic behaviour of the cold-rolled interstitial free steel HC260Y when it is submitted to various loading directions under monotonic tests. The experimental database included tensile tests carried out on specimens (in the as-received condition and after undergoing an annealing heat treatment) cut in different orientations according to the rolling direction. A model was proposed, depending on a plasticity criterion, a hardening law and an evolution law, which takes into account the anisotropy of the material. To validate the proposed identification strategy, a comparison with the experimental results of the planar tension tests, carried out on specimens cut parallel to the rolling direction, was considered. The obtained results allowed the prediction of the behaviour of this material when it is subjected to other solicitations whether simple or compound.
