Effect of Initial Cable Tension on Cable-Stayed Bridge Performance and a New Construction Method by Hamid Dehghani, Ehsan Dehghani, Mehdi Sharifi, Seyed Rohollah Hoseini Vaez

“…If some bridge elements are loaded to their yield limits, alternating plasticity and incremental collapse could occur under moving and repeated loading. This study investigated the effect of the initial tension force on the stiffness, strength, shakedown limit load, and alternating plasticity of cable-stayed bridges, which has not been studied so far. …”

Prediction and Analysis of Abnormal Gas Emission Law in Low-Gas Tunnel Based on K-Line Diagram by Haiyang Wang, Shulei Zhao, Jialiang Liu, Yanmin Zhou, Xiang Chen, Jie Wang, Liang Cheng

“…The results show that the K-line diagram can reflect the changing trend of gas concentration in real time accurately and show the change law of gas concentration during different construction processes; the moving average (MA) of the K-line diagram can accurately reflect the time of abnormal gas emission, the moving average convergence divergence (MACD) index can reflect the upward or downward power and trend of gas, and the Bollinger Band (BOLL) index can reflect the fluctuation range of gas concentration. …”

Graph Theory of Tower Tasks by Andreas M. Hinz

“…The appropriate mathematical model for the problem space of tower transformation tasks is the state graph representing positions of discs or balls and their moves. Graph theoretical quantities like distance, eccentricities or degrees of vertices and symmetries of graphs support the choice of problems, the selection of tasks and the analysis of performance of subjects whose solution paths can be projected onto the graph. …”

Conservation issues of large rolled paintings on the Portuguese altarpieces by Rita Macedo Moreira

“…Widely used in Portugal, this type of painting is exposed during a specific period of time of the liturgical year and, depending on scenic claims, is presented or simply stored through the system that moves it. This particularity originates characteristic degradation processes as well as very specific needs of exhibition.…”

Optomechanical Backreaction of Quantum Field Processes in Dynamical Casimir Effect by Xie, Yu-Cun, Butera, Salvatore, Hu, Bei-Lok

“…Dynamical Casimir effect (DCE) and cosmological particle creation (CPC) share the same underlying physical mechanism, that of parametric amplification of vacuum fluctuations in the quantum field by an expanding universe or by a fast moving boundary. Backreaction of cosmological particle creation at the Planck time has been shown to play a significant role in the isotropization and homogenization of the early universe. …”
