Studi Eksperimental Variasi Pretension Sambungan Baut Baja Tipe Slip Critical

On the bridge connection type found using high strength bolts with the type of slip-critical connections. In the installation of high quality bolt connection types is conducted pretension with using torque wrench or using manual tool by turn of nut. This study aims to determine tensile strength and failure behavior of the critical slip-type connection by varying the value of pretension on single bolt locking connection with different methods. Pretension variation used 90 Tb, 100 Tb and 110 Tb for torque wrench and 2/3, 3/6 and 4/6 rounds for manual tools of pretension respectively.Tensile test performed on each variation and variation locking method. The results showed the tensile strength values at the both locking methods are same and the failure behavior result are the bolt fail in shear and plate changes into an oval shape

Perilaku Kekuatan Baja Tulangan Beton Akibat Kebakaran

In general, when a reinforced concrete suffered a fire, a lot of people tend to replace it with anew reinforced concrete, because they assume that the strength of the element structure isalready changing. Though it is possible to keep re-creating the building by recountingstrength structural elements. The purpose of this studywass to know a changing of yield andtensile strength toward concrete-steel reinforced bar after burning at various temperature.Steel reinforced bar used was 13 mm (S13) and 16 mm (S16) in diameter which is the gradewas (BjTS 40) and (BjTS 35), respectively. The yield and tensile strength as receivedcondition of S13 were 432,02 MPa and 583,62 MPa, respectively, and S16 were 369,38 MPaand 514,58 MPa, respectively. The average yield strength of S13 after burning at 600 °C,800 °C, and 1000°C, were 411,78 MPa, 417,80 MPa, and 428,14 MPa, respectively. And thetensile strength of S13 were 563,64 MPa, 568,83 MPa, and 577,83 MPa, respectively. Theaverage of yield strength of S16 were 346,15 MPa, 358,13 MPa, and 362,28 MPa,respectively. And the tensile strength of S16 were 504,94 MPa, 507,05 MPa, and 518,49MPa, respectively. Based on this result, S13 and S16 concrete-steel reinforced bar beforeand after burning were still in the same grade compare to as rechieved. It can be concludedthat the building after fire at a temperature 600 ° C, 800 ° C and 1000 ° C for 1 hour with 2.5cm concrete cover thickness still meet the strength requirements of the building

Spin Dynamics of the Triangular Heisenberg Antiferromagnet: A Schwinger Boson Approach

We have analyzed the two-dimensional antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model on the triangular lattice using a Schwinger boson mean-field theory. By expanding around a state with local $120^\circ$ order, we obtain, in the limit of infinite spin, results for the excitation spectrum in complete agreement with linear spin wave theory (LSWT). In contrast to LSWT, however, the modes at the ordering wave vectors acquire a mass for finite spin. We discuss the origin of this effect.Comment: 15 pages REVTEX 3.0 preprint, 6 postscript figures ( uuencoded and compressed using the script uufiles ) are submitted separately

Kinerja Induk Kambing Peranakan Etawah dan Bligon Masa Laktasi

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kinerja induk kambing Peranakan Etawah dan Bligon masa laktasi. Penelitian menggunakan 14 ekor induk kambing yang terdiri dari tujuh ekor kambing Peranakan Etawah dan tujuh ekor kambing Bligon. Parameter yang diamati adalah litter size, bobot lahir, mortalitas prasapih, konsumsi susu, perubahan bobot badan harian induk, body condition score (BCS), bobot sapih, post partum estrus (PPE), post partum mating (PPM), dan konsumsi pakan. Data dianalisis menggunakan rancangan acak lengkap pola searah ANOVA. Hasil analisis statistik menunjukkan bahwa PPE dan PPM induk kambing Bligon berbeda nyata (P<0,05) berturut-turut yaitu (83,28±9,65 vs 93,71±7,69 ; 101,57±9,55 vs 112,42±7,32) hari, sedangkan litter size, bobot lahir, mortalitas prasapih, konsumsi susu, perubahan bobot badan harian, BCS, konsumsi pakan induk kambing PE dan Bligon tidak berbeda nyata. Disimpulkan bahwa PPE dan PPM kambing Bligon lebih baik daripada kambing PE, tetapi kedua bangsa kambing tersebut memiliki kinerja induk yang relatif sama

Development and Evaluation of vetPAL, a Student-led Peer-Assisted Learning Program

Based on an idea from a final-year student, Bristol Veterinary School introduced vetPAL, a student-led, peer-assisted learning program. The program involved fifth-year (final-year) students acting as tutors and leading sessions for fourth-year students (tutees) in clinical skills and revision (review) topics. The initiative aimed to supplement student learning while also providing tutors with opportunities to further develop a range of skills. All tutors received training and the program was evaluated using questionnaires collected from tutees and tutors after each session. Tutees' self-rated confidence increased significantly in clinical skills and for revision topics. Advantages of being taught by students rather than staff included the informal atmosphere, the tutees' willingness to ask questions, and the relatability of the tutors. The small group size and the style of learning in the revision sessions (i.e., group work, discussions, and interactivity) were additional positive aspects identified by both tutees and tutors. Benefits for tutors included developing their communication and teaching skills. The training sessions were considered key in helping tutors feel prepared to lead sessions, although the most difficult aspects were the lack of teaching experience and time management. Following the successful pilot of vetPAL, plans are in place to make the program permanent and sustainable, while incorporating necessary changes based on the evaluation and the student leader's experiences running the program. A vetPAL handbook has been created to facilitate organization of the program for future years. </jats:p

Canine sterile steroid-responsive lymphadenitis in 49 dogs

OBJECTIVES:To report clinical and laboratory features, treatment responses and outcome in dogs diagnosed with sterile steroid-responsive lymphadenitis in the United Kingdom. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Medical records of dogs diagnosed with sterile steroid-responsive lymphadenitis from 2009 to 2016 at six specialist referral centres were evaluated retrospectively. RESULTS:The study included 49 dogs. Springer spaniels appeared to be over-represented (16 of 49 dogs). Young dogs (median age: 3 years and 9 months) and females (31 of 49) were frequently affected. Clinical presentation was variable, with pyrexia (39 of 49), lethargy (35 of 49) and anorexia (21 of 49) the most commonly reported clinical signs. Lymph node cytology or histopathology demonstrated neutrophilic, pyogranulomatous, granulomatous or necrotising lymphadenitis without a detectable underlying cause in all cases. Because a sterile immune-mediated aetiology was suspected, all dogs received prednisolone, which was followed by rapid resolution of clinical signs and lymphadenopathy in most cases. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE:Sterile steroid-responsive lymphadenitis should be considered in dogs with pyrexia of unknown origin with inflammatory lymphadenopathy if no underlying cause can be found and often responds well to immunosuppressive corticosteroid therapy
