Torsional Stability Assessment of Columns Using Photometry and FEM

open access: yesBuildings, 2020
This paper presents a numerical analysis of the load-carrying capacity of steel open-section columns of a coal power plant structure. The structure was subjected to soil subsidence, which led to considerable structural deformations and damages.

Three-dimensional coating and rimming flow: a ring of fluid on a rotating horizontal cylinder [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The steady three-dimensional flow of a thin, slowly varying ring of Newtonian fluid on either the outside or the inside of a uniformly rotating large horizontal cylinder is investigated.

Standardized naming convention and classification system for critical loads of nitrogen and sulfur deposition

open access: yesEcosphere, 2023
Critical loads (CLs) of atmospheric deposition have been used for multiple decades to assess the impacts of air pollutants on terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems.

Research on bearing capacity of cross-type truss boom with variable cross-section of Crawler cranes

open access: yesMechanics & Industry, 2023
The web crossed truss boom is one of the commonly used truss boom structures of crawler cranes. However, the existing calculations fail to consider the limiting effect of the web members' bending resistance on the chord members, and cannot give full play

A plastic load criterion for inelastic design by analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The allowable plastic load in pressure vessel design by analysis is determined by applying a graphical construction to a characteristic load-deformation plot of the collapse behavior of the vessel.

Experimental and Measurement Methods for the Small-Scale Model Testing of Lateral and Torsional Stability

open access: yesInternational Journal of Concrete Structures and Materials, 2017
Tests of the lateral and torsional stability are quite sensitive to the experimental conditions, such as support conditions and loading system. Controlling all of these conditions in a full-size test is a very challenging task.

Local load sharing fiber bundles with a lower cutoff of strength disorder

open access: yes, 2006
We study the failure properties of fiber bundles with a finite lower cutoff of the strength disorder varying the range of interaction between the limiting cases of completely global and completely local load sharing. Computer simulations revealed that at

Bryophytes and Organic layers Control Uptake of Airborne Nitrogen in Low-N Environments

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
The effects of atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition on ecosystem functioning largely depend on the retention of N in different ecosystem compartments, but accumulation and partitioning processes have rarely been quantified in long-term field experiments ...

Dynamics and Critical Behaviour of the q-model

open access: yes, 2000
The $q$-model, a random walk model rich in behaviour and applications, is investigated. We introduce and motivate the $q$-model via its application proposed by Coppersmith {\em et al.} to the flow of stress through granular matter at rest.

International Standards for the Induction Motor Efficiency Evaluation: a Critical Analysis of the Stray-Load Losses Determination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Motor efficiency has to be measured or calculated in accordance with international standards. The most important standards are the IEEE 112-B, IEC 34-2, and JEC 3 .
