Intrinsic Shapes of Molecular Cloud Cores [PDF]

, 2001
We conduct an analysis of the shapes of molecular cloud cores using recently compiled catalogs of observed axis ratios of individual cores mapped in ammonia or through optical selection.

Light‑Driven Propulsion of Graphene Aerogels in Microgravity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Ultralight graphene aerogels convert laser light into thrust. Parabolic‐flight experiments directly compare their motion in microgravity and at 1 g, revealing order‐of‐magnitude enhancements in distance, velocity, and transient thrust when weight and friction are removed (∼50 times enhancement).

Anisotropic creep model for soft soils [PDF]

, 2008
In this paper a new anisotropic model for time-dependent behaviour of soft soils is presented. The formulation is based on a previously developed isotropic creep model, assuming rotated Modified Cam Clay ellipses as contours of volumetric creep strain ...

New opportunities for bioscaffold‐enabled spinal cord injury repair

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of bioscaffolds for spinal cord injury repair. We summarize the effects of bioscaffold properties on SCI repair, highlight different types of bioscaffolds, various fabrication strategies, and in vivo transformations for the clinical development of SCI‐repairing bioscaffolds.

Probability prediction of true‐triaxial compressive strength of intact rocks based on the improved PSO‐RVM model

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
In this work, we propose an improved particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm and develop an improved PSO‐relevance vector machine (RVM) model as a substitute for traditional true‐triaxial testing. The model's high prediction accuracy was validated through comparisons with two other machine learning methods and five three‐dimensional Hoek–Brown type

Triaxial Compression Performance Research of Steel Slag Concrete on the Unified Strength Theory

Applied Sciences, 2020
To better explore the mechanical properties of steel slag concrete (SSC) under triaxial compression, true triaxial tests were performed on SSC with three replacement ratios (30%, 70%, 100%) by a servo-controlled setup (TAWZ-5000/3000).

Reconstructing Three-dimensional Structure of Underlying Triaxial Dark Halos From Xray and Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect Observations of Galaxy Clusters

, 2003
While the use of galaxy clusters as {\it tools} to probe cosmology is established, their conventional description still relies on the spherical and/or isothermal models that were proposed more than 20 years ago. We present, instead, a deprojection method

Study on the failure mechanism of the shield excavation face in the sandy cobble stratum under different buried depths

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract One of the significant challenges faced in shield tunnel construction is the risk of collapse resulting from abrupt changes in soil conditions in advance of the working face, particularly within the sandy cobble stratum. This study aims to effectively manage these sudden variations and to further investigate the failure mechanisms associated ...

Testing for triaxiality with kinematic data [PDF]

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1985
Des modeles cinematiques simples de galaxies elliptiques sont utilises pour montrer que si les galaxies sont triaxiales, les vitesses de rotation suivant leurs axes principaux apparents doivent etre associees a des mouvements similaires suivant leurs petits axes apparents.
