References 11–21 lued structural members are manufactured in a variety of configurations. Structural composite lumber (SCL) products consist of small pieces of wood glued together into sizes common for solid-sawn lumber. Glued-laminated timber (glulam) is an engineered stress-rated product that consists of two or more layers of lumber in which the grain of all layers is oriented parallel to the...

Large outlet glaciers draining the Greenland Ice Sheet significantly influence overall ice sheet mass balance. Considerable short term (years to decades) retreat and fluctuations in velocity of Jakobshavn Isbræ, western Greenland, illustrate the complex nature by which large outlet glaciers respond to climate change, making predictions of future ice sheet change challenging. To provide a longer...

Increased iron loss in the magnetic core of high-speed rotating motors is a problem, and eddy current accounts for majority this. Therefore, an ultra-thin electrical steel sheet with reduced thickness has been developed, its effect recognized. However, it was limited to small cores due restriction that wide plates could not be manufactured. A wound laminated made strips developed further increa...
