<div style="text-align: left;">The value of a used stamp is higher than a new one. The used stamp, to get more value, has to have the post mark readable and it doesn't have to ruin the image. The value is given also by the intact identation and the bright colour: maybe these two features can be damaged by the passing <a href="http://scmnewused.blogspot.com/2010/11/time.html">time</a>.</div>SCMnuovousatohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03023627332717641021noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120078313317520958.post-13594231873373550422010-11-07T15:05:00.000+01:002010-11-07T15:05:24.910+01:00Alvar Aalto about new and used in design<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://qmark.files.wordpress.com/2007/11/image.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="317" src="http://qmark.files.wordpress.com/2007/11/image.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />

<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_between_overhaul">TBO</a>, time between overhaul: is a time 'recommended' by the manufacturer and depending upon how, for example, an aircraft is being operated. For aircraft used for non-commercial purposes overhauls are not mandatory, but highly recommended. Likewise, the TBO time recommended doesn't guarantee that the engine will last that long.SCMnuovousatohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03023627332717641021noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120078313317520958.post-53235553505648075552010-11-02T16:39:00.002+01:002010-11-02T17:04:54.950+01:00Operation time<br><br />

In continuum mechanics, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_%28mechanics%29"><b>stress</b></a> is a measure of the internal forces acting within a deformable body. Quantitatively, it is a measure of the average force per unit area of a surface within the body on which internal forces act. These internal forces are produced between the particles in the body as a reaction to external forces applied on the body. Because the loaded deformable body is assumed to behave as a continuum, these internal forces are distributed continuously within the volume of the material body, and result in deformation of the body's shape. Beyond certain limits of material strength, this can lead to a permanent change of shape or physical failure. The dimension of stress is that of pressure, and therefore the SI unit for stress is the pascal (symbol Pa), which is equivalent to one newton (force) per square meter (unit area). In Imperial units, stress is measured in pound-force per square inch, which is abbreviated as psi.SCMnuovousatohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03023627332717641021noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120078313317520958.post-62118330720361910382010-11-02T16:33:00.001+01:002010-11-02T17:04:54.952+01:00Fatigue<br><br />

<b><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatigue_%28material%29">Fatigue</a>:</b> in materials science, fatigue is the progressive and localized structural damage that occurs when a material is subjected to cyclic loading. The nominal maximum stress values are less than the ultimate tensile stress limit, and may be below the yield stress limit of the material.<br />
Fatigue occurs when a material is subjected to repeated loading and unloading. If the loads are above a certain threshold, microscopic cracks will begin to form at the surface. Eventually a crack will reach a critical size, and the structure will suddenly fracture. The shape of the structure will significantly affect the fatigue life; square holes or sharp corners will lead to elevated local stresses where fatigue cracks can initiate. Round holes and smooth transitions or fillets are therefore important to increase the fatigue strength of the structure.<br />
In high-cycle fatigue situations, materials performance is commonly characterised by Wöhler curve: a graph of the magnitude of a cyclic stress against the logarithmic scale of cycles to failure.SCMnuovousatohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03023627332717641021noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120078313317520958.post-14981449085701784722010-11-02T15:18:00.001+01:002010-11-02T17:04:54.953+01:00Wear<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.noelkingsley.com/blog/old-sneakers-719759.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://www.noelkingsley.com/blog/old-sneakers-719759.jpg" width="248" /></a></div><br />
<b><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wear">Wear</a>:</b> in materials science, wear is the erosion of material from a solid surface by the action of another surface. It is related to surface interactions and more specifically the removal of material from a surface as a result of mechanical action. The need for mechanical action, in the form of contact due to relative motion, is an important distinction between mechanical wear and other processes with similar outcomes. The definition of wear does not include loss of dimension from plastic deformation, although wear has occurred despite no material removal, because it may lack the action of another surface. This definition also fails to include impact wear, where there is no sliding motion, cavitation, where the counterbody is a fluid, and corrosion, where the damage is due to chemical rather than mechanical action.<br />
Wear can also be defined as a process in which interaction of the surfaces or bounding faces of a solid with its working environment results in dimensional loss of the solid, with or without loss of material. Aspects of the working environment which affect wear include loads (such as unidirectional sliding, reciprocating, rolling, and impact loads), speed, temperature, type of counterbody (solid, liquid, or gas), and type of contact (single phase or multiphase, in which the phases involved can be liquid plus solid particles plus gas bubbles).SCMnuovousatohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03023627332717641021noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120078313317520958.post-72733593027355415832010-10-29T11:28:00.013+02:002010-11-30T12:52:09.093+01:00Brake wear sensor<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.bavtech.com/e34-guides/1995-540i-brake-pad-rotor-replacement/images/brake-pad-wear-sensor-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://www.bavtech.com/e34-guides/1995-540i-brake-pad-rotor-replacement/images/brake-pad-wear-sensor-2.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />

The comprehension of the adjectives new/used have a different meaning in the two eras: artisan and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_Revolution">industrial</a>. We can say that in the artisan era new things were realated to the functionality, it was something that has a new function what was considered new, instead in the industrial era something new is no longer associated to function but to fashion and esthetics. Also the duration of objects in artisan era was longer than in the industrial one, what means that the period of use of objects is shorter now than in artisan era.SCMnuovousatohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03023627332717641021noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120078313317520958.post-38503781264402774042010-10-28T14:46:00.001+02:002010-10-28T14:48:15.032+02:00Have you got a problem?

<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isabelline_%28colour%29">Isabelline</a>, sometimes called Isabella, is a colour, variously described as pale grey-yellow, pale fawn, pale cream-brown or parchment. In horse colours, Isabelline or Isabella Palomino are terms applied to very pale palomino horses whose coat colour is cream, pale yellow or almost white.<br />
According to popular legend, the name comes from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infanta_Isabella_Clara_Eugenia_of_Spain" title="Infanta Isabella Clara Eugenia of Spain">Isabella, Archduchess of Austria</a> (1566–1633), daughter of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip_II_of_Spain" title="Philip II of Spain">Philip II of Spain</a> (1527–1598). Her husband laid siege to Ostend in July 1601 and Isabella, expecting a quick victory, vowed not to change her underwear until the city was taken. The siege lasted a little over three years (ending in September 1604) and her underwear understandably became discoloured in the interval.<br />
A more plausible, though probably still false, version refers to the much earlier <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isabella_I_of_Castile" title="Isabella I of Castile">Isabella I of Castile</a>, the Catholic (1451–1504) and the eight-month siege of Granada by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferdinand_II_of_Aragon" title="Ferdinand II of Aragon">Ferdinand II of Aragon</a> (1452–1516). This siege ended in January 1492 and again resulted in overworn underwear belonging to Isabella.<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isabelline_%28colour%29#cite_note-1"><span></span></a>SCMnuovousatohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03023627332717641021noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120078313317520958.post-15811621820593099622010-10-28T14:10:00.001+02:002010-10-28T14:48:44.959+02:00Loving old object<br><br />

In this movie, titled <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Up_%282009_film%29">Up</a>, we can notice how an old man, not wanting to leave his old house<b> </b>and his old memories, forced by the arrival of the<b> </b>new industrialized world characterized by tall and new buildings, decide to leave the place but not his house, putting many ballons on the top of his house to escape from the new world that is invading him but no matter what, remain at home.SCMnuovousatohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03023627332717641021noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120078313317520958.post-52059777665173014702010-10-26T16:18:00.003+02:002010-11-03T00:24:09.502+01:00Worn Fashion<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">This worn style, called<a href="http://www.blogger.com/goog_553705259"> Grunge</a> style, was very popular in 1990's.</div><br />

The phrase is also used in connection with a retail outlet, e.g. "vintage clothing store." It can also be used as an adjective: "This dress is vintage."<br />
The word vintage is copied from its use in wine terminology, as a more elegant-seeming euphemism for "old" clothes.SCMnuovousatohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03023627332717641021noreply@blogger.com0
