Stresses and stability for the cone-cylinder shells with toroidal transition

International Journal of Pressure Vessels and Piping, 1998
The stresses in the cone-cylinder shells with a toroidal segment as a transition, subjected to external hydrostatic pressure, have been calculated by both analytical and finite element methods, and compared with those in cone-cylinder shells without tratisition.

The Poison Cone Shell

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine, 1943
During the past one hundred years a few specific cases of death by the bite of a cone shell (Conus) have been published. The total list of known cases is not at all impressive and the danger from such a source may be very minor indeed, but it is present and constitutes a hazard that should not be overlooked by the shell collector in the tropics.

The van der Waals Interactions in Sphere-Shell and Cone-Shell Configurations

The Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 2012
This work introduces two expressions for the integration of the van der Waals interactions in geometries that are relevant to determining oil solubilization in micelles and the interaction among surfactants in micelles. The first integral applies to the interaction between a sphere and a spherical shell that surrounds the sphere.

Discontinuity effects at cone-cone axisymmetric shell junctions

Thin-Walled Structures, 2002
In this paper, the problem of a conical shell axisymmetrically intersecting another conical shell, such that the vertices of the cones lie on opposite sides of the plane of intersection, is considered, and associated discontinuity effects quantified for arbitrary loading and geometric parameters of the intersecting cones.

The caseinase activity of some vermivorous cone shell venoms

Toxicon, 1971
Abstract Venom extracted from anterior regions of the venom ducts of Conus arenatus, Conus lividus, and Conus quercinus displayed significant proteolytic activity towards casein with optimal activities between pH 9 and 10. In contrast no caseinase activity was displayed by venoms extracted from the posterior regions of the venom ducts.

The foregut glands of vermivorous cone shells

Australian Journal of Zoology, 1971
Salivary, snout, and secondary salivary glands are recorded in the foregut region of Conus Javidus, C. lividus, C. litteratus, C. miles, C. vexillum, and C. virgo. C. imperialis has a salivary gland only. The histology and histochemistry of these glands in C. Javidus and C, lividus is investigated.

The distribution of organic cores, cones, cone junctions and pores in the egg shells of wild birds

Journal of Zoology, 1978
Egg shells from 14 widely different species of wild birds were examined, using collodion casts of the inside surface of the shell. Organic cores, cones, cone junctions and pores were counted and in each case measurements of nearest neighbour distances were taken. Shell thickness was also measured.It was found that, using mean values for each egg shell,

Cone Shell Toxins and the Mechanisms of Their Pharmacological Action

1989
The present review mainly focusses on our recent findings on the structure and mechanism of action of bioactive compounds from cone shells. Cone shells are divided into three groups according to their major prey organisms: worm-eating (vermivorous), shellfish-eating (molluscivorous), and fish-eating (piscivorous). Each species has a venom that reflects

Shell restraint to ring buckling at cone-cylinder intersections

Engineering Structures, 1997
A study is presented of the out-of-plane buckling strength of rings attached to cone-cylinder intersections. Simple formulae which can be used to estimate the stiffness of the rotational restraint provided by adjacent shell walls are first developed from a finite element parametric study.
