Research on Carrying Capacity of T-Shaped Stiffened Concrete-Filled Steel Tubular Columns Subjected to Eccentrically Compressive Load by Yuanlong Yang, Xinchen Han, Bo Nan, Xin Tang

“…In this paper, in order to further study the mechanical behavior of T-shaped stiffened concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns, numerical programs of eccentrically compressive T-shaped stiffened CFST columns were developed to calculate moment M-ϕ curvature curves of cross section and column. The calculated curves with the numerical programs agree well with the experimental results. …”

Effects of Active and Passive Control Techniques on Mach 1.5 Cavity Flow Dynamics by Selin Aradag, Kubra Asena Gelisli, Elcin Ceren Yaldir

“…Several techniques are used for passive control including using a cover plate to separate the flow dynamics inside and outside of the cavity, trailing edge wall modifications, such as inclination of the trailing edge, and providing curvature to the trailing edge wall. The results of active and passive control techniques are compared with the baseline case in terms of pressure fluctuations, sound pressure levels at the leading edge, trailing edge walls, and cavity floor and in terms of formation of the flow structures and the results are presented. …”

Large-Time-Step-Based Ray-Tracing Modeling of Light Delivery in One-Sidedly Cladding-Removed Step-Index Plastic Optical Fiber under Arbitrary Weave Structure by Sun Hee Moon, In Hwan Sul

“…The cladding-removed plastic optical fiber was adopted in a textile weave structure, and its light scattering was measured quantitatively by varying the removal length, fiber curvature, and fabric weave patterns. To show the validity of the proposed simulation technique, twill structures with varying number of cross repeat numbers were used as a testbed. …”

Treatment of Thoracolumbar Spinal Infections through Anterolateral Approaches Using Expandable Titanium Mesh Cage for Spine Reconstruction by Tarantino Roberto, Marruzzo Daniele, Cappelletti Martina, De Giacomo Tiziano, Delfini Roberto

“…Surgery is also fundamental in helping to recover vital functions and in restoring as much as possible the correct curvature of the rachises. The use of an anterolateral approach is dictated by the necessity of obtaining 360° stability as well as by the need to clear away extensive infections, which are not always reachable using a posterior approach.…”
