Snap-through and pull-in instabilities of an arch-shaped beam under an electrostatic loading
The snap-through and pull-in instabilities of the micromachined arch-shaped beams under an electrostatic loading are studied both theoretically and experimentally. The pull-in instability that results in a system collision with an electrode substrate may

Experimental studies of thin-walled steel roof battens \ud subject to pull-through failures [PDF]
Despite the increasing usage of thin and high strength steel roof battens in the roof structures of low-rise buildings, recent cyclones and storms have shown that they prematurely fail at their screw fastener connections to the rafters or trusses due to ...

Development of fragility curves for localised pull-through failures of thin steel roof battens [PDF]
Recent extreme wind events such as tropical cyclones and severe storms have shown that thin steel roof battens fail prematurely at their screw connections to the rafters or trusses. The screw heads connecting the bottom flanges of thin steel roof battens

Energy Flexibilization and Demand Response for a Novel Decentralized Power‐to‐Methanol Process
This study presents the results of an optimization framework for the scheduling of a Power‐to‐methanol process coupled with an electrolyser, renewable energy sources and a battery. The optimal dynamic operating schedule is computed with different configurations and boundary conditions, showing the advantages of flexible operation.

Achieving food security for one million sub-Saharan African poor through push-pull innovation by 2020 [PDF]
Food insecurity is a chronic problem in Africa and is likely to worsen with climate change and population growth. It is largely due to poor yields of the cereal crops caused by factors including stemborer pests, striga weeds and degraded soils.

Different Frontier, Same Legal Script? On the Course of Replicating Earth's Patterns in Space
As states and private actors expand their activities in outer space, the international legal framework governing this domain risks extending longstanding structures of global inequality beyond Earth. This article examines how international space law, shaped by a broader disciplinary pattern of reactive legal development, is poised to reproduce ...

Investigation and Evaluation of Wax Deposition Treatment Methods in Large Natural Gas Plants
Problem: Wax blockage (Biphenyl, PAHs) in low‐temperature units crippled plant capacity. Solution: A novel Circulating Light Hydrocarbon Injection technology. Mechanism: Light hydrocarbons disrupt wax crystals via “like dissolves like” and are continuously recovered. Outcome: 1. Throughput dropped from 10 MMscmd to 3 MMscmd 2.
