... hypothesize that deformation depends on pressure, temperature, time, and confinement. These complexities make it challenging to quantify compressive resistance in terms that are adequate to address real-world applications. Limited compressive deformation data are available from manufacturers. To address...

... was that intrinsic psychological factors, such as perceived aggression and willingness to fight, and extrinsic factors, such as role modeling by NHL players and feeling pressured by others to fight, contribute to sustaining concussions in hockey. For example, players perceiving themselves as aggressive and physical...

... ASTM C361, Standard Specification for Reinforced Concrete Low-Head Pressure Pipe , was first published in 1955. At that time and for several decades, the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) published a similar document (USBR M-1, Standard Specifications for Reinforced Concrete Pressure Pipe...

... The current published version of ASTM C361, Standard Specification for Reinforced Concrete Low-Head Pressure Pipe , does not provide guidance for structural design of the concrete pipe joint. With the adoption of ASTM C361 by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, some of the information...

... High-surface-area aluminum structured packings are finding a wide use in the cryogenic distillation of air. An experimental program was performed to determine the oxygen compatibility of commercial packings. In particular, the influence of pressure increase up to 0.6 MPa (6 bar absolute...

... This paper discusses a new multi-axial 10.2-cm (4-in.) composite tube test method. This test method is capable of loading a 10.2 cm composite tube by internal pressure, torsion, and tension/compression. The method improves on an older biaxially loaded (internal pressure and axial load) tube...

... properties at the impact as a function of time; i.e., variations in frictional properties during loading and unloading (typically 200– 400 μs in ball bearings and gears) can be observed. A variety of lubricants has been studied up to a Hertzian pressure of 2.5 GPa, and the method and results are presented...

... The standard procedures for the oxidation induction time (OIT) determinations have been developed to get reproducible and comparable results on the same sample by different users. Experimental conditions such as isothermal measuring temperature, pressure of the surrounding oxygen concentration...

... aluminum heat exchangers (BAHX) seems to be strongly coupled with flame-spreading processes. The objective of this study is to determine the dependency of flame-spreading rate of aluminum sheets as a function of oxygen pressure, oxygen purity, oxygen flow condition, sample thickness, and multiple layer...

... Although perfluoroelastomers were designed for high temperature and severe service, they have become the preferred elastomeric material for high pressure oxygen applications. The main reason for their widespread use in oxygen is that perfluoroelastomers typically perform better in most ASTM...

... Currently, several issues are causing controversy in the review of ASTM fire resistance standards. The predominant issues are the time/ temperature curve, the use of positive pressure, and the use of the hose stream test. These issues are discussed, and an historical background is provided...

... The influence of local defects or flaws and through the thickness cracks on the load carrying capability and structural behavior of steel cylindrical shells subject to internal pressure is investigated. An integrated computer code is used for the simulation of structural degradation under...

... A new approach for evaluating elastomeric materials for use in high pressure oxygen has been developed. Because this approach replicates the dynamic forces that occur in pressure systems and subjects a specimen to progressive wear, it allows the user to compare wearability and oxygen sensitivity...

... The ability of hockey helmets to limit localized pressure was examined by mounting selected samples of Canadian Standards Association (CSA) certified helmets onto a humanoid headform and subjecting them to single puck impacts to the left temporal area at three different velocities. The peak...
