understanding how a cutout influences the load bearing capacity and buckling behavior of cylindrical shells is fundamental in the design of structural components used in automobiles, aircrafts, and marine structures. in this article, simulation and analysis of steel cylindrical shells with various lengths, include quasi elliptical cutout, subjected to axial compression were systematically carri...

progressive collapse is a chain reaction of failures propagating throughout a portion of the structure disproportionate to the original local failure occurring when a sudden loss of a critical load‐bearing element initiates a structural element failure, eventually resulting in partial or full collapse of the structure. both general services administration (gsa) and united states department of d...

This cross-sectional study of adult female athletes assessed whether the apparent loading-related differences in bone structure are primarily associated with the loading type or the muscle performance-related joint moments. Several structural variables at shaft sites of the tibia, radius and humerus, and distal sites of the tibia and radius were measured with peripheral quantitative computed to...

We present the results of experimental studies and modelling evaluation bearing capacity hollow 3D-printed walls with printed shell performing functions. The was experimentally assessed depending on ratio void areas casting layers in wall structure. It established that case central loading, a can serve as similar to traditional types masonry construction without filling voids structural concret...

Abstract The Active Magnetic Bearing (AMB) technology is introduced in the High Temperature Reactor-Pebble-bed Modules (HTR-PM) demonstration nuclear power plant, which being constructed Shandong province, China. auxiliary bearing one of most important components guaranteeing reliability AMB. It also has an impact on whole reactor system. Compared with traditional bearing, a novel proposed by a...

A good agreement is obtained between experiment and hybrid calculation. Due to structural modelling inaccuracies, the full numerical prediction shows some deviations. However, it appears that a simple BEM model is capable of predicting the general acoustic behaviour of a complex vibrating structure. A sound reduction, specifically in the high frequency range, is obtained with a viscoelastic bea...

The electronic and structural properties of two tetrathiafulvalene derivatives bearing aromatic benzene rings are reported. Thin film transistors of these materials show p-type characteristics with comparable mobility values. It is found that the rigidification of the molecule is beneficial for reducing the reorganisation energy but also has an unfavorable impact on the electronic structure dim...

We report the development of a catalytic method for the enantioselective addition of indoles to pyrone-derived electrophiles. Arylpyrrolidino-derived thioureas catalyze the addition with high stereoselectivity in the presence of catalytic quantities of an achiral Brønsted acid. The indole-pyrone adducts feature a quaternary stereocenter and represent an unusual class of indolines bearing struct...

The Pricaspian Depression in the southeast of the East European Platform is one of the deepest depressions formed over the Baikal folded basement. The sedimentary cover consists of four structural levels corresponding to the major stages of its formation. The Riphean and the Vendian beds constitute the first structural level. The second one comprises deposits from the Devonian to the Upper Tria...

The assembly of two-dimensional (2D) large channel uranyl-organic polyrotaxane networks as well as structural regulation of uranyl-bearing units using jointed cucurbit[6]uril-based pseudorotaxanes with integral rigidity based on supramolecular inclusion is presented for the first time. This construction strategy concerning controlling molecular integral rigidity based on supramolecular inclusio...
