ONE EVALUATION METHOD FOR THE CONTRIBUTION OF SUBSTRUCTURE STIFFNESS TO ARRAY FRAMEWORK STIFFNESS (MT) by WANG Chao, SUN XiaoGang, GU YeQing, Lü ZhenHua, Lü YiNing

“…The mean square root of reflector deformation is often used to measure the stiffness performance of array, but the root mean square method can only analyze the overall stiffness of the framework, and can not evaluate the stiffness of local modules and their contribution to the overall stiffness.To solve this problem, the stiffness contribution of substructure（λ） and substructure bearing coefficient（α） were proposed based on the design criteria of substructure strain energy and uniform strain energy density, which has high calculation efficiency and wide application. …”

Les représentations filmiques de Marie Stuart– Une femme de pouvoir dans l’air du temps by Armel Dubois-Nayt

“…It starts by focusing on the way the Scottish Queen is depicted as a Catholic ruler who had to deal with the Scottish Reformation and the civil strife it entailed. These cinematic representations are considered in the wider scope of Marian myth-making as it developed in the sixteenth century with the aim of showing that until recently cinema has merely harped on the tropes found in her early modern detractors and defenders. …”

Civil society organisations and the local politics of migration: how funding contexts matter by Christine Lang, Elisabeth Badenhoop

“…And yet CSOs delivering public services to migrant and racialised populations often rely on public funding which has been significantly restructured since neoliberal welfare reforms in many Western countries in the 1990s. This article examines how funding contexts shape the opportunities of CSOs to influence local policymaking on migration and migration-related change from a cross-country and cross-city comparative perspective. …”

STUDY ON THE INFLUENCE OF THE STRUCTURE PARAMETERS OF THE WOUND CYLINDRICAL HONEYCOMB ON THE ENERGY ABSORPTION CHARACTERISTICS by JIANG ShiHong, WANG ChengQiang, JIN Hui, WANG Lei, SUN WenYue, LI ZhiFei

“…The increase in the thickness of the flat sheet can reduce the mass specific energy absorption; the simulation model is accurate, and the results are in good agreement with the experimental results in the honeycomb deformation and energy absorption characteristics. This paper has done a more detailed study on the three parameters that affect the strength of the cylindrical honeycomb, which provides new ideas and theoretical support for the energy-absorbing components of the passive safety protection of rail transit.…”
