  2. Leslie Sydney Dennis Morley - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leslie_Sydney_Dennis_Morley

    He is known especially for his pioneering work in shell and plate theory as exemplified by the widely known Morely shell equations and the fundamentally intriguing Morley plate triangle. His numerous researches also range over such topics as the finite element method , 'practical tensors ', variational principles and skewness in structures, in ...

  3. Toenailing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toenailing

    Toenailing or skew-nailing is a viable, structurally sound method [1] of the driving of a nail at a roughly 30° [2] angle to fasten two pieces of wood together, typically with their grains perpendicular. The term comes colloquially from fastening wood at the bottom, or toe, of the board.

  4. Contact mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_mechanics

    Stresses in a contact area loaded simultaneously with a normal and a tangential force. Stresses were made visible using photoelasticity.. Contact mechanics is the study of the deformation of solids that touch each other at one or more points.

  5. Symbols and conventions used in welding documentation

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbols_and_conventions...

    The symbolic representation of a V weld of chamfered plates in a technical drawing. The symbols and conventions used in welding documentation are specified in national and international standards such as ISO 2553 Welded, brazed and soldered joints -- Symbolic representation on drawings and ISO 4063 Welding and allied processes -- Nomenclature of processes and reference numbers.

  7. Moving heat source model for thin plates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moving_heat_source_model...

    In the 1930s metallurgists Albert Portevin and D. Seferian attempted to experimentally determine heat transfer characteristics in welding. [1] They correlated the effects of several factors—material properties, welding process, and part dimensions—on temperature distribution, by performing oxyacetylene (gas) and covered electrode (arc) welds on plates and bars of various profiles, and ...

  8. Neutral axis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutral_axis

    Arches also have a neutral axis if they are made of stone; stone is an inelastic medium, and has little strength in tension. Therefore as the loading on the arch changes the neutral axis moves- if the neutral axis leaves the stonework, then the arch will fail.

  9. Spot welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spot_welding

    A portable spot welder. Spot welding (or resistance spot welding [1]) is a type of electric resistance welding used to weld various sheet metal products, through a process in which contacting metal surface points are joined by the heat obtained from resistance to electric current.
