this paper deals with the solution of a column with balcony loads. it is intended to determine the expressions for deflections and bending moments of the sections of a column under the action of transmitted loads from a balcony loaded at its free end by a force «p» and rigidly connected to the column somewhere between its ends. the action of this load on the column is equivalent to that of the ...

The cortical column hypothesis is described along with backing evidence. Proposals for the functional properties of columns are reviewed, namely those based on construction of columnar models and networks of columns. An attempt is made to tie this knowledge into that of an existing model of planning, the TELOS model.

In this paper, we propose a new path-based multicast algorithm that is called Row/Column-First algorithm. The proposed algorithm constructs a set of multicast paths to deliver a multicast message to all multicast destination nodes. The set of multicast paths are all of row-first or column-first subcategories to maximize the multicast performance. The selection of row-first or column-first appro...

abstract: in this paper, an exergy analysis approach is proposed for optimal design of distillation column by using simulated annealing algorithm. first, the simulation of a distillation column was performed by using the shortcut results and irreversibility in each tray was obtained. the area beneath the exergy loss profile was used as irreversibility index in the whole column. then, first opti...

I wonder if you read about Graham Hill lobbying the Prime Minister? Mr. Hill was complaining about the unsuitable motor tricycles that are issued to disabled haemophiliacs?and he ought to know what is safe to drive. In the deputation with him were members of the Haemophilia Society who pointed out that nearly half of the haemophiliacs who took part in a survey last year now suffered serious int...
