ANALYTICAL AND DEM STUDIES OF THERMAL STRESS IN GRANULAR MATERIALS

Analytical and DEM studies of thermal stress in granular materials

The ability to predict thermal-induced stresses in granular materials is of practical importance across a range of disciplines ranging from process engineering to geotechnical engineering.This study presents an analytical formula to predict HELMETS thermal-induced stress increments in mono-disperse granular materials subject to an initial isotropic

Assessment of dog owner adherence to veterinarians’ flea and tick prevention recommendations in the United States using a cross-sectional survey

Abstract Background Adherence to a prescribed therapeutic regimen is a critical factor for achieving medication effectiveness and therefore treatment success.In the case of companion animal ectoparasite control, suboptimal owner adherence to medication recommendations is thought to be a common cause of treatment failure, and previous reports have f
