Dissipative Shocks behind Bacteria Gliding

open access: yes, 2014
Gliding is a means of locomotion on rigid substrates utilized by a number of bacteria includingmyxobacteria and cyanobacteria. One of the hypotheses advanced to explain this motility mechanism hinges on the role played by the slime filaments continuously

A Design of an Axisymmetric Roof With a Horizontal Rotation Axis

open access: yesStudies in Applied Mathematics, Volume 156, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT This research proposes a novel roof design whose shape follows the mathematical model of an ideal hanging surface. The resulting roof is a surface of revolution, but its rotation axis is horizontal, which challenges conventional intuition because the axis is perpendicular to the direction of gravity.

Cyclic and Explosive Evaluation of New Proposed Steel Joint

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2016
The behaviour of a novel steel beam-to-column connection, the saddlebag, subjected to cyclic and progressive collapse, was evaluated in this paper. The cyclic behaviour considered the interstory drift angle and flexural strength in accordance with 2010 ...

Model for coiling and meandering instability of viscous threads

open access: yes, 2009
A numerical model is presented to describe both the transient and steady-state dynamics of viscous threads falling onto a plane. The steady-state coiling frequency w is calculated as a function of fall height H.

Wave energy converter with floating-point absorber and catenary mooring: dynamic coupling analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Mooring design for floating wave energy converters (WECs) is crucial for station maintaining, efficient power collection, and economic concerns. In order to study the dynamic response of the floating-point absorber under the coupling action of the ...

Overestimation of load-resisting capacity in double-span welded steel beams: a comparative FEM study incorporating ductile damage and element deletion

open access: yesJurnal Ilmiah SINERGI
The study investigates how different finite element modelling assumptions affect the predicted load-resisting behavior of welded beam-column connections in double-span steel beam systems subjected to column-removal scenarios.

Performance of the PR connections under combined Axial-tension and moment loading

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Structural Engineering, 2010
The inherent moment capacity of bolted top-seat angle connections with double web angles (TSDW), categorized as partially restrained (PR) connections according to AISC-LRFD specifications, can be considered in analyses of semi-rigid connections ...

Strengthening of Precast RC Frame to Mitigate Progressive Collapse by Externally Bonded CFRP Sheets Anchored with HFRP Anchors

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2018
Currently, the robustness of precast reinforced concrete frames is attracting wide attention. However, avoiding “strong beams and weak columns” during strengthening against progressive collapse is a key problem.
