Interaction of deformation-strength characteristics of the support load-bearing elements in the preparatory workings [PDF]
The objective of this work is to study the relationship of the deformation-strength characteristics of the fastening system with its displacement value. The tendencies of influence are divided into two groups.

The effect of boundary constraints on finite element modelling of the human pelvis [PDF]
The use of finite element analysis (FEA) to investigate the biomechanics of anatomical systems critically relies on the specification of physiologically representative boundary conditions.

Analytical modeling of reinforced concrete columns subjected to bidirectional shear [PDF]
Under general seismic loading, reinforced concrete columns may be subjected to lateral loads in more than one direction. Available experimental data on columns subjected to bidirectional forces indicate that higher levels of damage and a higher loss of ...
