Experimental Observations of Aerodynamic and Heating Test on Insulating Heat Shields [PDF]
Several different types of insulating heat shields have been subjected to aerodynamic tests and radiant-heating tests in order to obtain a better insight into the problems involved when the primary structure of m aerodynamically heated vehicle is ...

We developed and field‐validated a fully automated trap for Cydia pomonella monitoring, combining a camera with a YOLOv8 object‐detection model for remote insect identification. In controlled laboratory validation, the model showed strong performance (precision 0.77, recall 0.83), with moderate reductions under field conditions. Across six experiments,

Enhancing the superconducting transition temperature of BaSi2 by structural tuning
We present a joint experimental and theoretical study of the superconducting phase of the layered binary silicide BaSi2. Compared with the layered AlB2 structure of graphite or diboride-like superconductors, in the hexagonal structure of binary silicides

Application of formal optimization techniques in thermal/structural design of a heat-pipe-cooled panel for a hypersonic vehicle [PDF]
Nonlinear mathematical programming methods are used to design a radiantly cooled and heat-pipe-cooled panel for a Mach 6.7 transport. The cooled portion of the panel is a hybrid heat-pipe/actively cooled design which uses heat pipes to transport the ...

Minimum-mass design of filamentary composite panels under combined loads: Design procedure based on simplified buckling equations [PDF]
An analytical procedure is presented for designing hat stiffened and corrugated panels made of composite material and subjected to longitudinal (in the direction of the stiffeners) compression and shear loadings.

Numerical Study of I-Joists with Wood-Based Corrugated Panel Web
Oriented strand board (OSB) panels are widely used as the best web solution for wooden I-joists. Many previous studies have focused on testing various new web materials, but few have examined the contribution of other web shapes to the I-joists' behavior.

Design detail verification tests for a lightly loaded open-corrugation graphite-epoxy cylinder [PDF]
Flat corrugated graphite-epoxy panels were tested in compression to verify selected design details of a ring-stiffened cylinder that was designed to support an axial compressive load of 157.6 kN/m without buckling.
