This work presents the robustness assessment of stiffened thin-walled composite structures in postbuckling, which is based on a new design strategy that satisfies weight, load-based performance and energy-based robustness requirements. In this approach, robustness is understood as collapse insensitivity due a local failure, where global buckling for instance is assumed as a local failure, once ...

purpose: to evaluate the rate of optical coherence tomography (oct) grid decentration in a routine practice and its effect on thickness measurements methods: topcon spectral domain oct scans from various macular diseases including age related macular degeneration, diabetic macular edema, macular pucker and central serous chorioretinopathy (cscr) were studied in all patients visited during seven...
