Ames, Iowa–An Asteroid Deflection Research Center (ADRC) has been established on the Iowa State campus to bring researchers from around the world to develop asteroid deflection technologies. The ...

On Nov. 7, 1940, the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, or ‘Galloping Gertie,’ dramatically collapsed into the Puget Sound. Friday marks ...

When used in structural engineering, the term deflection refers to load-induced displacement, which typically affects beam designs. It can be an extremely complicated value to calculate when ...

In civil engineering, flexural beams are used to control the effect of vibrations that can cause cracks to appear in surfaces (concrete slabs) and beams. This is particularly important in buildings ...

An Asteroid Deflection Research Center has been established on the Iowa State campus to bring researchers from around the world to develop asteroid deflection technologies. Despite the lack of an ...

Framework that uses digital imaging techniques in precise observation of the engineering structures to detect the defects of many buildings. ‏Four students from the College of Engineering, Civil and ...

Bearing deflection or yield is elastic deformation occurring between balls and raceways because of external loads. Deflection increases nonlinearly as external load increases. To increase bearing ...
