ABSTRACT We present relativistic radiation magnetohydrodynamic simulations of supercritical neutron star accretion columns in Cartesian geometry, including temperature-dependent polarization-averaged Rosseland mean opacities accounting for classical electron scattering a magnetic field. Just as our previous pure Thomson simulations, vertical oscillations the shock and horizontally propagating e...

This paper evaluates the effect of slot existence with limited length between flanges and web junction of I-shaped beams at the region of moment connections on vertical force and shear stress distribution in beam flanges and web at connection section in comparison with classical theory of stress distribution. The main purpose of this research is to evaluate the efficiency of the slot in connect...

This study presents a novel energy-dissipating prefabricated joint for connecting beam to column in precast frame structure. The joints are characterized by replaceable steel hinge and tube confined core, providing advantages concrete reinforced frames, such as complete assembly, damage control, maintainability of the structure after an earthquake. hysteretic behavior proposed was studied throu...

Geometry of eccentrically braced frames (EBFs) in some cases causes the connection of link beam to the column. The details of such conditions should be studied carefully due to the full plastic rotation in the link beam. In this research, the behavior of link-to-column connection is modeled and the failure modes are considered. Based on the previous researches shear link can exhibit better beha...

Shear failure of B-C joints is recognized as the primary cause collapse various moment-resisting frame buildings during recent earthquakes. When joint subjected to huge forces severe ground shaking and its behaviour has a very much influencing on structure, sometimes it may Leeds entire structure. To study energy dissipation with different types combinations FRP sheets used retrofit BC in this ...

A new method for generating positrons has been proposed that uses betatron X-rays emitted by an electron beam in a high-K plasma wiggler. The plasma wiggler is an ion column produced by the head of the beam when the peak beam density exceeds the plasma density. The radial electric field of the beam blows out the plasma electrons transversely, creating an ion column. The focusing electric field ...

In order to improve the progressive collapse resistance of an RC frame structure with L-shaped plane under local component failure, X-tension reinforcement and steel trusses are applied design. this paper, finite element software MIDAS Gen v2.1 is used establish 6-story X-type tension strengthening a truss at top. Nonlinear dynamic analysis comparison two structures after structural failure car...

The stability of structures is an important aspect that the designer must pay particular attention to in order ensure safety against collapse. This investigation concerned with analytical and numerical analyses dynamic buckling plane structures. A rigorous mechanical model proposed, consisting a beam-column element nodal ends possessing two rotational springs rigidities acting parallel bending ...

Steel extended end plate bolted connections are recommended to be widely utilized in special moment-resisting frame subjected to monotonic loading. Improper design of steel beam to column connection can lead to the collapse and fatality of structures. Therefore comprehensive research studies of beam to column connection design should be carried out. Also the performance and effect of corrugated...
