Reducing MRI gradient coil vibration with rib stiffeners

Concepts in Magnetic Resonance Part B: Magnetic Resonance Engineering, 2009
AbstractThis work investigates the effect of rib stiffeners on the free and forced vibration of a gradient coil in a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner. Several reinforcement schemes are studied in this article. One scheme utilizes the existing holes in the gradient coil structure (typically reserved for magnetic shims) to produce the ...

Moment‐curvature behavior of continuous reinforced concrete slab strips—Experimental determination and modeling

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract With the market introduction of new reinforcing materials, such as corrosion‐resistant steel, the effect of their stress–strain relationship on the ductility of reinforced concrete structures needs to be evaluated. Their moment‐curvature behavior significantly influences bending moment redistributions, rotation capacity, and deformation at ...

Rotation capacity of continuous reinforced concrete slab strips revisited

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Rotation capacity is a key characteristic of statically indeterminate reinforced concrete structures, as it (i) enables bending moment redistributions, whether intentionally introduced through optimized reinforcement layouts or arising from unforeseen self‐equilibrated stress states, and (ii) promotes large rotations at failure load, thereby ...

Bond, tension‐stiffening, and cracking in multi‐generational recycled aggregate concrete subjected to shrinkage strains

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The concrete industry is responsible for a significant portion of global waste production and multi‐generation recycled aggregate concrete (MGRAC) is a means to allow the sector to transition to a circular economy framework. To predict the behavior of MGRAC at the member level there is a need to understand the underlying mechanics of bond ...

Numerical analysis of waffle slabs in flexure considering the effects of concrete cracking

Revista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais
Waffle slab structures simulated by computational model are generally analyzed by simplified methods, for both the section geometry (converting into solid slabs or grids) and for the material mechanical properties (linear elastic regime).

Methodological Challenges in Studying Wealthy Families

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Studying the wealthy is not easy. This piece provides suggestions for recruitment, interview strategies, and design to gain high‐quality data on wealthy people. It is based on an interview study of 81 US racially‐diverse families with a median net worth of $25 million. First, to gain access to the wealthy, it is key for the researcher to use a
