This paper concerns friendship as an aspect of family love and its fragilities. I explore love as an on-going ethical demand and problem in family life, one that can present continual obstacles to the ability to continue as a family.

Hybrid finite element formulation for geometrically nonlinear buckling analysis of truss with initial length imperfection [PDF]
This paper presents a novel hybrid FEM-based approach for nonlinear buckling analysis of truss with initial length imperfection. The contribution deals with establishing two types of truss finite element (perfection and imperfection element) considering ...

AbstractWe are interested in colouring a graph G=(V, E) together with an integral weight or demand vector x=(xv:v∈V) in such a way that xv colours are assigned to each node v, adjacent nodes are coloured with disjoint sets of colours, and we use as few colours as possible.

Limit point buckling of a finite beam on a nonlinear foundation
In this paper, we consider an imperfect finite beam lying on a nonlinear foundation, whose dimensionless stiffness is reduced from 1 to k as the beam deflection increases.

FUNDAMENTAL MODELS OF STRUCTURAL STABILITY
In this paper, basic structural stability phenomena are described. After some general comments about stability in the field of civil engineering, four elementary sources of nonlinearity are mentioned: of equilibrium equations, strain (geometry) relations,

Numerical characterization of imperfection sensitive composite structures
The need to take the imperfection sensitivity of thin-walled unstiffened cylinders into account during the early design phases motivated the development of the NASA SP-8007 guideline, which brings an empirically based lower-bound curve that gives the ...

György Ligeti, Friction, and the Uncertain Image
The current succession of centenaries of members of a significant group of European composers who made their work in the second half of the twentieth century gives us cause to think again about the historical situation they faced, in the aftermath of ...

The load-carrying capacity of the member with imperfections under axial compression is analysed in the present paper. The study is divided into two parts: (i) in the first one, the input parameters are considered to be random numbers (with distribution ...
