The measurements of acoustic properties of three brittle materials i.e., ITO (alkaline earth boro-aluminosilicate) glass, bulk metallic glass (BMG) and Corner Tv Unit nickel-based superalloy (CM247LC) are conducted in this work to obtain various properties.The elastic moduli of materials are derived from the results by simple acoustic speed-elastic
A total of 2,145 2 Seater Sofa pigs were transported for 8 h in summer (six trips) and winter (five trips) using a pot-belly trailer accommodating pigs in four locations (upper deck or UD, bottom-nose or BN, middle deck or MD and bottom deck or BD).Heart rate of pigs during loading and transportation and lactate and creatine kinase (CK) concentrati
