STUDY ON CRITICAL CTOD OF BIG-THICKNESS AND HIGH-STRENGTH STEELS by XIA ZiYu, MIAO ZhangMu, MA Tao, CHEN Gang, PENG Sheng

“…As one of the essential criteria of assessment to welding toughness,CTOD（ Crack tip opening displacement） is widely applied in engineering.The research on critical CTOD of big thickness and high strength steels has been a hot issue,therefore the theoretical research in China lags behind its overseas.The present paper takes the single edge fatigue precrack of CTOD specimen as a flaw based on the technical route of the British Standard 7910-2005,which is "Guide to methods for assessing the acceptability of flaws in metallic structures".In the meanwhile,make the grading assessments of the HAZ of the60 mm thick EQ70 steel welded joints,combining the results of the CTOD tests.The CGHAZ microstructures of EQ70 steel welded joints has been analyzed by SEM.The assessments on welded joints of EQ70 show that the CTOD values are in the acceptable range.And there are some fine microstructures good for the toughness of the welded joint.This method provides a useful guidance in researches of critical CTOD.…”

Determination of Dam Deformation Safety Monitoring Index Based on Improved Typical Small Probability Method by ZHOU Wenzhong, GU Yanchang, HUANG Haibing, WU Yunxing

“…If the dam has not encountered the most unfavorable load or the data time series isshort, the effect quantity samples will not cover the monitoring effect quantity for the mostunfavorable load combination.This paper describes the theoretical method of determining damdeformation safety monitoring index by using the typical small probability method, proposes animproved typical small probability method by transforming the normal distribution calculation todecompose different load components with query for the standard normal distribution table, andcombined with an example of prototype observation data of a reservoir, determines the safetymonitoring index for radial displacement of section 11 of the dam. …”

Gendering Justice in the Chilean Courts: Institutional Developments and Legal Actors’ Perspectives by Karime Parodi

“…Drawing on interviews, ethnographic fieldwork, and analysis of court rulings, the study identifies four ways in which judges understand a “gendered perspective”: as a method to detect stereotypes, a tool to analyze context, an instrument to reach a fair result, and a rejection of the notion of loosening evidentiary standards. The article argues that in contemporary Chile, different legal cultures shape disparate understandings about a gendered perspective. …”
