A soil parameter required when civil engineering/mechanical simulations for various grounds are performed is appropriately determined. A parameter determination device determines a parameter of a particle model used in a ground analysis system. The parameter determination device includes a triaxial compression test numerical analysis unit configured to determine the parameter so that the adhesive force and the shear resistance angle of a virtual ground respectively match the adhesive force and the shear resistance angle of an actual ground with a predetermined accuracy, and a pull-out test numerical analysis unit configured to determine the parameter so that a ground reaction force coefficient of the virtual ground matches a ground reaction force coefficient of the actual ground with a predetermined accuracy.

The disclosure relates to a soft rock shear rheological test system with simulation of coupled rainfall seepage and blasting vibrations, which is at least provided with a loading device and a shear box. The loading device includes a frame (2), a normal static load electric cylinder (1) disposed on a top of the frame (2) and a normal dynamic load electric cylinder (16) disposed on a lower portion of the frame (2), a horizontal static load electric cylinder (5) and a horizontal dynamic load electric cylinder (12) disposed on both sides of the frame (2), and a reaction post (10). This test system can perform a dry-wet cycle operation on the test specimen without disassembling the shear box during the shear rheological test, and can truly simulate influences of rainfall seepage and blasting vibrations on the shear rheological effect of soft rock.

A system for evaluating a rigidity of an angle bracket includes a test system having a first test fixture and a second test fixture. The system includes an angle bracket coupon including a first wall, a second wall coupled to the first wall at a bend to define an angle between the first wall and the second wall, and at least one three dimensional feature defined at the bend that extends between the first wall and the second wall. The angle bracket coupon is to be coupled to at least one of the first test fixture and the second test fixture to evaluate the rigidity of the angle bracket.

Methods, devices, and systems for testing the flexibility of a sample such as an electronic device are provided herein. A testing system can have a motor operably connected to a mandrel such that the motor causes the mandrel to accurately and precisely rotate and cause the sample to conform to an outer surface of the mandrel. Moreover, a proximal end of the sample is secured to the outer surface of the mandrel, and the opposing distal end is controlled by a retractable holder such that the entire sample is subjected to a constant bend radius as the mandrel rotates. Other aspects and features such as controlling the environment around the mandrel and securing small samples to the mandrel are also described herein.
