Unbiased Diffusion through a Linear Porous Media with Periodic Entropy Barriers: A Tube Formed by Contacting Ellipses by Yoshua Chávez, Marco-Vinicio Vázquez, Leonardo Dagdug

“…The effective one-dimensional reduction is used with distinct forms of a position-dependent diffusion coefficient, D(x), found in literature, to obtain expressions for (I) narrow escape times from a single open-ended tube, (II) its correspondent effective diffusion coefficient, both as functions of the eccentricity of the tube, ε, where ε = 0 returns the system to a spherical vesicle with two open opposite sides, and (III) finally, Lifson-Jackson formula that is used to compute expressions to assess the mean effective diffusion coefficient for a periodic elliptic channel formed by contacting ellipses, also as a function of the eccentricity. …”

A New Simple Method for the Strength of High-Strength Steel Thin-Walled Box Columns Subjected to Axial Force and Biaxial End Moments by Hong-Xia Shen

“…It shows that ANSI/AISC 360-10 provides a good estimate over a wide range of column slenderness ratios; but it severely underestimates the strengths of beam-columns with large slenderness ratios and slightly underestimates those of beam-columns made from HSS with fy = 741 MPa, and the calculation is more complicated because of using an effective width concept. …”
