Pipe rupture and steam/water hammer design loads for dynamic analysis of piping systems [PDF]
Nuclear Engineering and Design, 1978 Abstract The design of restraints and protection devices for nuclear Class I and Class II piping systems must consider severe pipe rupture and steam/water hammer loadings. Limited stress margins require that an accurate prediction of these loads be obtained with a minimum of conservatism in the loads.

Study on Cavitation Behavior of Pipe String in Gas Storage Well under Gas-Liquid Environment
International Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2021 In the long-term and continuous operation process of UGS injection-production well, the outer casing joint of the oil string is prone to failure. This causes gas to enter into the annular space between the casing and string forming the gas-liquid two ...

Nanoscale Spatial Organization of ARC High‐ and Low‐Order Assemblies at Excitatory Synapses
Advanced Science, EarlyView.ARC (Activity‐Regulated Cytoskeleton‐Associated protein) mediates synaptic plasticity by forming nanoscale assemblies in neurons. Using super‐resolution microscopy and time‐resolved anisotropy with targeted tagging, the study reveals low‐order ARC assemblies at synapses colocalizing with AMPARs, semi‐circular structures at endocytic zones, and 60–80 nm
