Truss Optimization Using Genetic Algorithm, considering Construction Process

open access: yes, 2010
Extending the authors' previous work on the theme of truss optimization using Genetic Algorithms (GAs), this article aims to apply the truss optimization scheme to actual truss structural design by considering some construction requirements for truss ...

What Was Neoliberalism—And Is It Dying?

open access: yesIPPR Progressive Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Andy Burnham has promised nothing short of the end of “forty years of neoliberalism”. That begs the question: what is neoliberalism, really? A set of ideas, a policy paradigm, or something else? As profound economic and geopolitical changes have forced governments to revisit hoary assumptions – about the price mechanism, inequality, and the ...

Non-parametric data-driven approach to reliability-based topology optimization of trusses under uncertainty of material constitutive law

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing
The material behavior intrinsically possesses the aleatory uncertainty (i.e., the natural variability). Against uncertainty in a given data set of elastic material responses, this paper presents a data-driven approach to reliability-based truss topology ...

Comparative Analysis of Three Vertebral Screw Placement Directions in Anterior Thoracolumbar Fracture Surgery: A Finite Element Study

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1464-1477, May 2025.
This study compares the biomechanical effects of three anterior fixation systems in thoracolumbar surgery—HXTL, NHXTL, and Medtronic's CD Horizon ANTERIOR. Finite element analysis evaluates stress and displacement across vertebral bodies and support structures under varying load conditions. Results indicate the HXTL system minimizes nail–rod stress yet

CRISPR/Cas9‐Mediated Knockout of LbSP1 and LbSP5G1 Reveals Efficient Customization of Shoot Architecture in Black Goji Berry

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Goji is recognized as a nutritionally rich superfruit with medicinal and industrial importance. However, its inherently indeterminate growth habit causes asynchronous flowering and uneven fruit ripening, resulting in harvesting inefficiency with high labour costs and low fruit yield.
