Experimental assessment for non-monolithic slab-column connections

open access: yesAin Shams Engineering Journal, 2021
It is common practice to use non-monolithic connections to connect the new flat slabs to the existing columns for upgrading the stories number of the existing buildings, despite the lack of design guidelines for the non-monolithic connection.

Extension of the QuickFF force field protocol for an improved accuracy of structural, vibrational, mechanical and thermal properties of metal-organic frameworks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
QuickFF was originally launched in 2015 to derive accurate force fields for isolated and complex molecular systems in a quick and easy way. Apart from the general applicability, the functionality was especially tested for metal-organic frameworks (MOFs),

Effects of Four Types of Pre-swirls on the Leakage, Flow Field, and Fluid-Induced Force of the Rotary Straight-through Labyrinth Gas Seal

open access: yesChinese Journal of Mechanical Engineering, 2019
The labyrinth seal in turbomachinery is a key element that restricts leakage flow among rotor-stator clearances from high-pressure regions to low-pressure regions.

Simple relativistic model of a finite-size particle [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Soluble model of a relativistic particle describing a bag of matter with fixed radius held together in perfect balance by a self-consistent combination of three forces generated by electromagnetic and massive scalar and vector fields is presented.

Muscle Force-Velocity Relationships Observed in Four Different Functional Tests

open access: yesJournal of Human Kinetics, 2017
The aims of the present study were to investigate the shape and strength of the force-velocity relationships observed in different functional movement tests and explore the parameters depicting force, velocity and power producing capacities of the tested

Improved side-chain torsion potentials for the Amber ff99SB protein force field

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, 2010
Recent advances in hardware and software have enabled increasingly long molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of biomolecules, exposing certain limitations in the accuracy of the force fields used for such simulations and spurring efforts to refine these ...

Evaluation of the relative contribution of meteorological and oceanic forces to the drift of ice islands offshore Newfoundland

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2020
On 29 April 2015, four beacons were deployed onto an ice island in the Strait of Belle Isle to record positional data. The ice island later broke up into many fragments, four of which were tracked by the beacons.

Full and half-wavelength ultrasonic percussive drills [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Ultrasonic-percussive drills are a leading technology for small rock drilling applications where power and weight-on-bit are at a premium. The concept uses ultrasonic vibrations to excite an oscillatory motion in a free-mass, which then delivers ...

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)
