Influence of Root Rotation on Delamination Fracture Toughness of Composites by V. Alfred Franklin, T. Christopher, B. Nageswara Rao

“…This paper examines the effect of rotational spring stiffness (K) on the critical fracture energy (GIC) considering nonzero slope at the crack-tip of the DCB specimen by modelling each cracked half as the spring-hinged cantilever beam. The critical load estimates of DCB specimens from GIC are found to be in good agreement with in-house and existing test results of different composite material systems.…”

Les techniques de construction du second forum de Bavay (Nord) : utilisation, origine et datation des matériaux en terre cuite by Xavier Deru, Christine Louvion

“…An archaeomagnetic analysis estimated the firing period between 190 and 230 AD, which is in keeping with the date on a Commode coin (192 AD) and an important batch of terra sigillata, proposing 185 AD as a terminus post quem.After the architectural study and the digital rendering of the elevations, it was furthermore possible to estimate the volume of masonry at nearly 20,000 m3 and the roof surface at 8,000 m2. …”
