Elliptical FRP-Concrete-Steel Double-Skin Tubular Columns under Monotonic Axial Compression by Bing Zhang, Gui-Sen Feng, Yan-Lei Wang, Cong-Cong Lai, Chen-Chen Wang, Xia-Min Hu

“…When subjecting to different loads in the two horizontal directions, elliptical columns are preferred as they can provide different bending stiffness and moment capacity around two axes of symmetry without significantly reducing the confining effect of the FRP tube. This paper extends the existing work on circular DSTCs to elliptical DSTCs with a particular focus on four issues: the effect of elliptical aspect ratio (i.e., the ratio of the major axis to the minor axis of the outer elliptical cross-section), the effect of the FRP tube thickness, the effect of void area ratio (i.e., the ratio of the area of concrete void to the area of the outer elliptical section), and the effect of the cross-section of the inner steel tube (i.e., both rectangular and elliptical steel tubes were used). …”

Ternary Toward Binary: Circuit-Level Implementation of Ternary Logic Using Depletion-Mode and Conventional MOSFETs by Hyundong Lee, Seonghoon Kim, Jongbeom Kim, Jaehoon Jeong, Jeonggyu Yang, Taigon Song

“…Thus, ternary logic based on various devices was proposed, but these circuits are still encountering issues of high-power consumption, low operating speed, and challenges in manufacturing compared to silicon-based circuits. Therefore, this paper presents a methodology for designing ternary logic based on Depletion-mode metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (DEPFET) and multi-threshold voltage complementary metal-oxide–semiconductor (MTCMOS). …”
