The Insistence of Blackness and the Persistence of Antiblackness in Ireland
Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper positions Ireland as a critical site for examining the insistence of blackness and an antiblackness created and sustained through Irish ethnonationalist imaginaries and exclusionary processes. Drawing on connected sociologies and Irish Black Studies, this enquiry argues that antiblackness in Ireland operates as a generational force,

Predesign of steel frames with semi-rigid joints
, 2013 It is well known that real solutions of steel joints in framed structures are far away from the conservative assumption that joints behave like pure hinges and/or full rigid connections. Applying semi-rigid philosophy in the design requires consideration of joint characteristics (M- φ relationship) in the global analysis. The main parameters describing

Optimization of office building frame with semi-rigid joints in normal and fire conditions [PDF]
, 2012 There are many framing systems for buildings. This thesis considers one particularly popular system for office buildings in the Nordic countries. The frame consists of welded steel box beams (WQ-beams) and composite square concrete-filled hollow section ...

Prediction of Behavior of Semi-rigid Composite Joints using Artificial Neural Networks
, 2012 This paper describes an artificial neural network (ANN) model developed to predict the moment-rotation response of semi-rigid beam-to-column composite joints for the full range of loading.

Research on the initial tensile stiffness of T‐stub based on correlation
Engineering ReportsSemi‐rigid steel and composite joints are widely used in steel structures for their effectiveness and low constructional costs and mechanical property research on the semi‐rigid connections could not be ignored.

Effect of reduced joint strength and semi-rigid joints on cold-formed steel portal frames
, 2012 This paper considers the effect of semi-rigid joints and finite connection length on the design of cold-formed steel portal frames sized using a rigid joint and full joint strength assumption, and whether it can offset the fact that the joints cannot ...

Serviceability design of a cold-formed steel portal frame having semi-rigid joints
, 2003 Details are given of a cold-formed steel portal framing system that uses simple bolted momentconnections for both the eaves and apex joints. However, such joints function as semi-rigid and, as a result, the design of the proposed system will be dominated

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Excessive water production in mature oil fields necessitates robust shut‐off treatments, yet conventional polymer gels often fail under high‐temperature and high‐salinity conditions. This study aims to enhance gel thermal stability and mechanical strength by incorporating selenium‐doped Ag/AgO–ZnO nanocomposites synthesized via a novel green ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.We describe the functional anatomy of masticatory muscles in nine opossums, finding a generalized anatomical pattern with differences related to skull morphology. Variation in quantitative myological data and estimated bite force was mostly related to size, and the increase in bite force supports dietary diversification associated with size increase ...
