Stress Concentrations

363
Stress concentration is when stress intensifies near discontinuities such as holes or abrupt cross-sectional changes in a structural member. This localized stress can often surpass the average stress within the member. The stress distribution in flat bars, either with a circular hole or varying widths connected by fillets, can be determined experimentally using a photoelastic method. The results are based on ratios of geometric parameters like the ratio of the hole's radius to the smaller...

Concentrations

ConcentrationsConcentration refers to the amount of solute dissolved in a given quantity of solvent. It determines how strong or weak a solution is. A highly concentrated solution has more solute particles in a fixed amount of solvent, while a dilute solution has fewer. The concentration of a solution affects its physical and chemical properties, such as color, taste, boiling point, and reactivity.For example, in a chemical reaction, the concentration of reactants directly affects the reaction...

Stress Concentrations in Circular Shafts

220
Consider the elastic torsion formula, which applies to a circular shaft with a consistent cross-section. This formula assumes that the shaft's ends are loaded with rigid plates firmly attached. However, in many cases, torques are applied to the shaft through mechanisms like flange couplings or gears, which are connected by keys inserted into keyways. This application method modifies the stress distribution near the point of torque application, causing it to deviate from the distributions...

Solution Concentration and Dilution

85.0K
The relative amount of a given solution component is known as its concentration. Often, though not always, a solution contains one component with a concentration that is significantly greater than that of all other components. This component is called the solvent and may be viewed as the medium in which the other components are dispersed or dissolved. Solutions in which water is the solvent are, of course, very common on our planet. A solution in which water is the solvent is called an aqueous...

The Integrated Rate Law: The Dependence of Concentration on Time

35.7K
While the differential rate law relates the rate and concentrations of reactants, a second form of rate law called the integrated rate law relates concentrations of reactants and time. Integrated rate laws can be used to determine the amount of reactant or product present after a period of time or to estimate the time required for a reaction to proceed to a certain extent. For example, an integrated rate law helps determine the length of time a radioactive material must be stored for its...

Summary

Firms with high supply chain concentration hold more financial assets due to pressure. This corporate financialization is driven by reduced main business profitability, even when firms have competitive power.

Area of Science:

  • Business and Economics
  • Corporate Finance
  • Supply Chain Management

Background:

  • Supply chain concentration, defined as reliance on major suppliers or customers, is a growing concern in business.
  • Understanding the impact of supply chain pressure on corporate financial strategies is crucial for economic stability.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the relationship between supply chain concentration and corporate financialization.
  • To explore the mediating role of main business profitability in this relationship.

Main Methods:

  • Empirical analysis of firms' financial data.
  • Mediation effect model to test the underlying mechanism.

Main Results:

  • Firms with higher supply chain concentration exhibit higher levels of financialization.
  • Supply chain concentration negatively impacts main business profitability, which in turn increases financial asset holdings.
  • Competitive power can reduce financialization but does not overcome the effect of supply chain concentration.

Conclusions:

  • Overdependence on key suppliers or customers drives firms towards financialization, potentially at the expense of core business operations.
  • This shift towards virtual economics suggests a strategic response to supply chain pressures.
