i am working on the stability analysis of cantilever shaft disk 9rotor) systems. i am a beginner in this work. can any one please suggest any books or papers which can help me in my work. i will be grateful to you.

Adhesive bonding is contemplated as an alternative method to mechanical fastening for joining composite aerostructures.

Ongoing research in this area is focused on the development of new bonding techniques and joining elements. In this

article, the mechanical performance of the novel noncrimp fabric (NCF) H-shaped adhesively bonded joints subjected to

tension, shear and four-point bending loading conditions was investigated by both experimental tests and numerical

Can anyone guide me how to get crosshead speed range equal to or greater than 1:3000 in a motorized electromechanical material testing machine? The load capacity should remain same even at lowest speed.

Hi everybody,

I have a question about the shear modulus of polymers. As we know, the general engineering polymers （rubbers） are highly extensible and elastic. The shear modulus，G， for the polymers subjected to the small-strain conditions, can be defined by G=NkT, where N is the number of network chains, k is Boltzmann's constant and T is temperature in Kelvins.
