Design Against Failure of Battlefield Equipment Armor Steel

Armor against prejudice.

Stereotype threat, the fear of failing in a way that reinforces derogatory stereotypes of one’s social group, undermines performance in school, sports and the workplace. Recently researchers have developed a more sophisticated understanding of how such anxiety arises, how to combat it and how to prevent it from occurring in the first place. Relatively simple and brief confidence-boosting exerci...

Effect of Initial Local Failure Type on Steel Braced Frame Buildings against Progressive Collapse

In many studies, the alternative load path method (APM) has been used for progressive collapse analysis. In this method, one or several columns of the building are removed and the building response is investigated. This method ignores the initial local failure cause of building and this can affect the structural response. Investigation of ignoring the initial local failure cause of steel braced...
