Study on ultimate strength of ship’s hull considering cross section and beam finite element.

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
The objective of the present research is to study the ultimate strength of ship’s hull considering cross section and beam finite element under longitudinal bending. The single hull bulk carrier and double hull oil tanker are taken to be analysed. The one-

Steel model test on structural strength of ship superstructure underoverall longitudinal bending

Zhongguo Jianchuan Yanjiu, 2022
ObjectivesThe superstructure participates in the overall longitudinal bending of a ship, which leads to stress concentration in certain parts and threatens the safety of the ship's structure.

Causal analysis of trade loss from pathogens: A global study of foot and mouth disease impacts on meat exports

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Our general interest is in global trade loss from livestock pathogens, specifically exports. We adopt a causal inference approach that considers animal disease outbreaks over time as non‐staggered binary treatments with the potential for switching in (infection) and out of treatment (recovery) within the sample period. The outcome evolution of

Helmeted hornbill cranial kinesis: Balancing mobility and stability in a high‐impact joint

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Prokinesis—in which a craniofacial joint allows the rostrum to move relative to the braincase—is thought to confer diverse advantages in birds, mostly for feeding. A craniofacial joint would, however, be a weak link if cranial stability is important. Paradoxically, we have identified a craniofacial joint in helmeted hornbills (Rhinoplax vigil),

Residual ultimate strength of a very large crude carrier considering probabilistic damage extents

International Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2014
This paper provides the prediction of ultimate longitudinal strengths of the hull girders of a very large crude carrier considering probabilistic damage extent due to collision and grounding accidents based on IMO Guidelines (2003).

Time-Varying Evolution Behaviors of Steel–Concrete Composite Girders with Differentiated Connectors

Buildings, 2023
To improve the cracking resistance of a concrete slab in the hogging moment region, a new concept called uplift-restricted and slip-permitted (URSP) connection technology has been proposed.

Comparative Effects of Three Microbial Starter Cultures on the Physicochemical and Sensory Quality of Fermented Sausages

Food Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study innovatively links specific microbial compositions of commercial starter cultures to the evolution of key odorant and taste‐active amino acids, revealing the underlying mechanisms behind distinct flavor profiles. Three microbial starter cultures—Saccharomyces cerevisiae (SC), Scarlet (ST), and Roxaane LC (LC), were added to sausages,

Premature destruction of two-span RC beams exposed to high temperature caused by a redistribution of shear forces

Journal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2017
When multi-span RC elements are exposed to fire one usually observes a yielding of span cross-sections while a safety reserve of support cross-sections is still significant. Due to this phenomenon a redistribution of bending moments occurs and the values

Floral trait similarity at the community‐level increases reproductive success suggesting facilitation through pollinator sharing

Oikos, EarlyView.
The ability of plants to attract pollinators is context‐dependent, influenced by floral traits, abundance, and resources from the plant community. Indirect interactions through shared pollinators, from competition to facilitation, may lead to varied reproductive outputs in plants, and the mechanisms behind these interactions remain to be fully ...
