A critical aspect in the design of tubular bridges is the fatigue performance of the structural joints. Economic viability depends on it. Lower fatigue strength for joints with thicker failing members was observed in welded joints typical to the bridge app ...
Fixed effects meta-analysis can be thought of as least squares analysis of the radial plot, the plot of standardized treatment effect against precision (reciprocal of the standard deviation) for the studies in a systematic review. For example, the least sq ...
This work investigates the potential for harnessing the association of bacterial proteins to biogenic selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) to control the size distribution and the morphology of the resultant SeNPs. We conducted a proteomic study and compared pro ...
Solute transport takes place in heterogeneous porous formations, with the log conductivity, Y = ln K, modeled as a stationary random space function of given univariate normal probability density function (pdf) with mean Y, variance σY2, and integral scale ...
Modern processors are becoming more complex and as features and application size increase, their evaluation is becoming more time-consuming. To date, design space exploration relies on extensive use of software simulation that when highly accurate is slow. ...
Experimental and numerical investigations were carried out on adhesively bonded full-scale double lap joints composed of pultruded GFRP profiles with relatively thick adhesive layers. Thick adhesive layers are often used in infrastructure applications in o ...
Zinc oxide nanoparticles were produced by aqueous precipitation in mild hydrothermal conditions (90 ◦C). Well crystallized regular roundish particles were obtained, with a very narrow size distribution. The influence of soft templates (organic species) to ...
Single crystal deformation unveiling the characteristics of crystal glide and the role of defect propagation herein has been a matter of intense research more than 60 years ago. A manifold of different mechanical testing methods and crystal qualities were ...
We present the results of a study of the charmless vector-vector decay B0→ωK0 with 657×106 BB̅ pairs collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB e+e- collider. We measure the branching fraction to be B(B0→ωK0)=[1.8±0.7(stat)±0.3(syst)]×10-6 with 3.0σ s ...
Monodispersed Pd nanoparticles (8, 11, and 13 nm in iameter) as confirmed by high resolution transmission electron microscopy were prepared via the reverse microemulsion method and deposited on structured supports consisting of carbon nanofibers (CNF) grow ...
