External fixation correction of angular deformities leads to secondary translation deformities when occurring around an axis located proximal or distal to the center of rotation of angulation (CORA); secondary length deformities result when correction occurs around an axis concave or convex to the CORA. With circular fixation, the hinge axis can be matched to the CORA. With monolateral fixation...

The connection with opening on beam web is analyzed by Finite Element Program ABAQOUS. The optimal opening sizes and location are determined under the static loads. The factors to influence the formation of plastic hinge in beams and columns withstand static load are considered. Conclusions are drawn that the formation position is not only related with the web height h, but also with flange wid...

Improper seismic design of buildings can lead to collapse and severe damage due natural unpredictable earthquake loads. Based on a comprehensive analysis the effect quantity reinforcement frame plastic hinge formation building at wall buildings, this paper proposes rational method for by means control protect lives property people ensure stability building.

The influences of IgA hinge length and composition on its susceptibility to cleavage by bacterial IgA1 proteases were examined using a panel of IgA hinge mutants. The IgA1 proteases of Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptococcus sanguis strains SK4 and SK49, Neisseria meningitidis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, and Haemophilus influenzae cleaved IgA2-IgA1 half hinge, an Ab featuring half of the IgA1 hinge...

We studied the response to aldosterone, 11-deoxycorticosterone, 11-deoxycortisol, cortisol, corticosterone, progesterone, 19-norprogesterone and spironolactone of human, chicken, alligator, frog and zebrafish full-length mineralocorticoid receptors (MRs) and truncated MRs, lacking the N-terminal domain (NTD) and DNA-binding domain (DBD), in which the hinge domain and ligand binding domain (LBD)...

The penetration of a projectile into warship broadside liquid cabin is usually non-ideal process. To explore the protective effects large against rod projectiles and to provide reference for design new structures, ballistic impact tests penetrating at different attack angles were carried out. Combined with numerical calculation, angle on water entry characteristics as well their failure modes s...

determination of the deformation length is one of the first steps in roll forming design. roll forming industries are very interested in explicit simple relationsfor prediction the deformation length without using trail-and-error methods at workshop or time consuming finite element simulations. in this paper, elastic properties and work-hardening behaviour of the strip are considered in additio...
