Experimental study on the effect of the riveting process on the bending resistance of beams composed of galvanized Q235 steel

High Temperature Materials and Processes
In this article, a hollow flange beam (ARHFB) composed of self-piercing rivet (SPR) and galvanized steel sheet was proposed, and the process parameters and mechanical properties of SPR connection technology for Q235 galvanized steel sheet were studied ...

Shame as a mediator of the association of childhood emotional abuse with aversive cognitive perseveration in adults

British Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Childhood emotional abuse (CEA) has been linked to response‐focused emotion regulation in adulthood. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unexplored. This pre‐registered study examined whether shame mediates the association between CEA history and aversive cognitive perseveration (ACP), including brooding rumination, experiential ...

Multidirectional load-carrying capacity of cross-laminated timber panel-to-panel orthogonal joint using self-tapping screws installed at an angle subjected to combined load

Journal of Wood Science
This study elaborated on the potential effects of monotonic loading on a cross-laminated timber (CLT) panel-to-panel orthogonal joint. The joint was subjected to multidirectional loading at various angles when it was connected using the self-tapping ...

Self-tapping screw assemblies under monotonic and reverse cyclic load [PDF]

, 2012
In the past century old-growth forests in Canada and the USA provided sufficiently large, clear wooden construction material which have been extensively used. Today, the importance of high-quality structural timber and wood products has increased by far.

Speaker Perceptions of Americanisms in Nigerian English

Journal of Sociolinguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the perceptions of Americanisms among three generations of Nigerians. While prior research has provided quantitative evidence for American influence in contemporary Nigerian English, the role of language beliefs and ideologies in mediating such changes remains underexplored.

“Buprenorphine doesn't hold me”: Neurochemical afterlives of state violence and the struggle for meaning in addiction treatment

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper analyzes two disparate experiences of buprenorphine, a medication for opioid addiction, in California. Within the context of the U.S. War on Drugs and after decades of criminalization, buprenorphine represents a shift toward outpatient medical treatment of opioid addiction, but it has been unequally distributed and experienced ...

A passively adaptive screwdriver: a novel concept for controlling off-diagonal stiffness [PDF]

, 2006
A concept for an automated screw driving mechanism is presented. The proposed mechanism has a self-adjusting axial stiffness that depends on the torsional resistance against screwing.
