Biomolecules, 2023 Although molecular docking has evolved dramatically over the years, its application to glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) has remained challenging because of their intrinsic flexibility, highly anionic character and rather ill-defined site of binding on proteins.

Structural Performance of Semi-Rigid Connection Steel Frames
Diyala Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2022 In most engineering designs, steel connections are usually considered as fully rigid connections or perfectly pinned connections, for simplicity of design work. In reality, this assumption is incorrect.

Location of semi-rigid connections effect on the seismic performance of steel frame structures
Electronic Journal of Structural Engineering, 2022 In design steel frames, combining semi-rigid and rigid connections can result in better structural performance, particularly in seismic locations. In this study, the effects of semi-rigid beam-to-column connections located on the seismic performance of ...

Dynamic Analysis of Semi-Rigid Frames [PDF]
Mathematical and Computational Applications, 2005 The dynamic response of semi-rigid frames is studied by using a computer program. The connection flexibility is modeled by linear elastic rotational springs. Having the same geometry and cross-section; semi-rigid frames, with different spring coefficients, are examined.

Cartilaginous metaplasia of varicose veins: a case report [PDF]
, 2013 Cartilaginous metaplasia of superficial veins was found in a 64-year-old woman who underwent surgery for varicose veins. At operation, some varicose veins of the medial thigh were semi-rigid and fibroelastic to the touch. Histology revealed that half the

Matrix formulation of dynamic design of structures with semi-rigid connections [PDF]
Facta Universitatis. Series: Architecture and Civil Engineering, 2011 The structures with semi-rigid connections comprise systems with the connections in joints which are not absolutely rigid, but allow, in general, some relative movements in directions of generalized displacements.
