Breakout force

Resistance Another means to prevent inadvertent operation of a control is to introduce a resistance force for fixed positions. Detent wheels and detent on-off rotary switches are examples of resistant forces. Some levers require a breakout force to move them from a neutral position.

In summary, the cause for stick-slip motion in syringes can be rationalized as a combination of high initial friction (breakout force) and the elastomeric properties of the stopper.

The U.S. Navy has developed a vibration embedment anchor for use in shallow or deep water. The vibrator drive unit uses two counter-rotating eccentric masses to develop the vibrational force applied to the anchor fluke. The vibration unit can be either electrically or hydraulically powered and the vibrator and support frame can be recovered after the anchor is installed. The present system uses a Y-fluke that penetrates the sediment in a low-profile configuration and is keyed by pulling back on the anchor line to develop maximum breakout resistance. The support platform uses remote sensing to determine the... 

The best surface qualities in machining aluminum alloys can be achieved by using diamond tools. Because of the low process forces, diamond tools with very sharp cutting edges are not prone to micro breakouts and allow clear cuts which result in smooth surfaces (Kammer 2003). 

The concrete breakout strength of the row of anchors farthest from the front edge perpendicular to the direction of force, if closed shear ties or other mechanisms are used to transfer the load from the row of anchors closest to the front edge to the row of anchors farthest from the front edge. (See Figure 3.12.)... 

The tension and the shear forces in the anchors are transfered to the longitudinal rebars and shear reinforcement, respectively, which will be designed as anchor reinforcement. Therefore, the concrete breakout strength in tension and shear (D.5.2 and D.6.2) is not checked. The concrete pryout strength in shear (D.6.3) is assumed OK by inspection because it is usuaiiy criticai for short and stiff anchors.
