Numerical simulation of the blast-resistant response of ultrahigh-performance concrete structural members

open access: yesJournal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2019
This paper presents the blast responses of ultrahigh-performance concrete (UHPC) structural members obtained using finite element (FE) modelling. The FE model was developed using LS-DYNA with an explicit solver.

Random network behaviour of protein structures [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular BioSystems, 2009
Abstract Geometric and structural constraints greatly restrict the selection of folds adapted by protein backbones, and yet, folded proteins show an astounding diversity in functionality. For structure to have any bearing on function, it is thus imperative that, apart from the protein backbone, other tunable degrees of freedom be ...

Post-fire performance of structural steel

open access: yesDiyala Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2021
Carbon steel is widely used in building industry. The different structural element might be exposed to high temperature during fire. The structural safety of steel buildings must be evaluated after they have suffered a fire.

Seismic behaviour of geotechnical structures

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2002
This paper deals with some fundamental considerations regarding the behaviour of geotechnical structures under seismic loading. First a complete definition of the earthquake disaster risk is provided, followed by the importance of performing site-specific hazard analysis.

Structural Behaviour of Hybrid Steel-Glass Beams

open access: yesChallenging Glass Conference Proceedings, 2010
Steel-glass beams consisting of steel flanges and a glass web connected by bonding represent a new kind of transparent structural members. This paper deals with the particular structural behaviour of flexible composed hybrid beams regarding specific ...

Health‐Related Social Needs in Children With Sickle Cell Disease Are Associated With Worse Health‐Related Quality of Life

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Children with sickle cell disease (SCD) face multiple acute and chronic medical complications that may impact their quality of life as reported by patients themselves. Health‐related social needs (HRSNs), such as food and housing insecurity, are common in people with SCD, but the association between HRSNs and patient‐reported ...
