Plasticity is concerned with the mechanics of materials deformed beyond their elastic limit. A strong knowledge of plasticity is essential for engineers dealing with a wide range of engineering problems, such as those encountered in the forming of metals, the design of pressure vessels, the mechanics of impact, civil and structural engineering, as well as the understanding of fatigue and the economical design of structures.

After you remove the six screws around the edges of the plastic frame, you need to find the 7th and remove it too. Mine was "hidden" directly beneath the label (a piece of adhesive backed paper) with the serial number on it. I was ready to give up and throw mine away, but my brother-in-law felt a slight indentation beneath the label. We removed it, and sure enough, there was a seventh screw holding it in place. After that, repair was easy.

The average holding time of each user is 5 sec. The number of requests per hour period is 450. Assuming no overflow (i.e., system handles all calls), what is the traffic intensity?

The missing flap pin activates the safety switch. You can bypass the safety switch (not recommended for safety reasons) and gain operation.

Just in case someone comes across this in the future looking for an answer like I did. I jerry-rigged a solution to keep my Tech Solution TS-4500 going as I'm in the midst of a major shred job. Here's how I jerry-rigged a replacement pin for the flap: 1) I straightened a coated paperclip. 2) Wrapped the two ends together in duct tape, fitted to the size of the insert on the top of the shredder that the pin goes into. 3) Snipped off the excess paper clip at the opposite end of jerry-rigged pin, so there isn't more metal inside the shredder than necessary. (Leave enough to attach to the flap [See next step].) 4) Duct-taped the paperclip to the flap to keep it in the correct position. 5) Inserted the hard plastic pin into its slot and then the jerry-rigged pin into its slot. The flap is able to swing up and down, and I've had no problems using the machine and the machine has had no problems knowing when it's full and auto-stopping.

This is not the safety interlock switch. This flat bar keeps shredder paper from backfilling into the cutters. The safety interlock switch is a vertical slot on the body that a tab on the top fits into.
