Evaluation of Seismic Effects on Atmospheric Pressure Liquid Storage Tanks

open access: yesEngineering Proceedings
As part of the seismic capacity assessment of thin-walled tanks containing liquid fuels, the appropriate modeling of hydrodynamic loads is required. The theory adopted in existing work requires the modeling of the hydrodynamic pressure contribution due ...

An Intelligent Question Answering System for Food Safety Regulation Based on Retrieval-Augmented Generation Framework [PDF]

open access: yesShipin Kexue
The food safety regulation question answering (QA) task imposes high requirements on model accuracy, compliance, and interpretability. However, existing large language models (LLMs) face challenges in this domain, including imprecise knowledge retrieval,

3D‐Printing Aided Rapid Prototyping of Pretensioned Tensegrity Structures for Robotic Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Printing, injection molding, and assembly (PMA) is a method for rapid prototyping mesoscale, topologically complex, and tensioned tensegrity structures. In combination with PMA method, two mold design strategies: modular mold and compact channel layout, enable efficiency and scalability for tensegrity fabrication.

Tank 241-AZ-101 tank characterization plan [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board has advised the DOE to concentrate the near-term sampling and analysis activities on identification and resolution of safety issues. The Data Quality Objective (DQO) process was chosen as a tool to be used in the resolution of safety issues.

WorMa: An Undulatory Robot With Center of Mass Regulation via Internal Fluid Redistribution for Amphibious Locomotion

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
WorMa is an amphibious undulatory robot that uses Center of Mass redistribution as the sole terrain adaptation mechanism. This mechanism is based on internal fluid mass redistribution through a pump‐driven latex balloon system that creates three profiles: head‐biased, balanced, and tail‐biased.

Dual Role of Tamoxifen in Enhancing STING and CEACAM1 Expression to Prime a Favorable Tumor Microenvironment for Anti‐TIM3 Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Anti‐PD‐1/PD‐L1 blockade has revolutionized cancer immunotherapy, but is ineffective against endocrine‐treated (i.e., Tamoxifen), relapsed ER+ breast cancer (BC) patients. This study provides insight into the sub‐optimal response of ER+BCs to anti‐PD‐1/PD‐L1 blockade – highlighting the induction of STING and the CEACAM1/TIM3 axis after chronic ...

Encroachment of Waterspread Area of Tanks in Karnataka: Magnitude, Causes and Consequences [PDF]

open access: yes
Traditional water bodies called tanks were built mainly for catering to the irrigation and drinking needs of the village communities. Until 1950-51, they played a significant role in helping the rural economies.

A Pentaradial and Bilateral Combined Photoreception System in the Sea Cucumber is Mediated by a Blue Light‐Sensitive R‐Opsin

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The sea cucumber Holothuria leucospilota detects blue and adjacent wavelengths of light via an r‐opsin with a maximum absorption at 459 nm. In the oral tentacles, papillae, and tube feet, distinct light‐sensing structures with specialized morphologies are formed, constituting a unique pentaradial and bilateral combined photoreception system.

Assessing VOC Dispersion from Hydrocarbon Storage Tanks: A Case Study on Emission Temporal Resolution

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Volatile Organic Compound emissions from hydrocarbon storage tanks are a key source of industrial air pollution and odour nuisance. This study evaluates odour impact predictions using annual average emissions versus time-resolved emissions from fixed ...
