Valencia bridge fire tests: Experimental study of a composite bridge under fire

Response of Fire Exposed Steel Bridge Girders

Memristor Bridge Synapse Application for Integrate and Fire and Hodgkin-Huxley Neuron Cell

Memory resistor or memristor is already fabricated successfully using current nano dimension technology. Based on its unique hysteresis, the amount of resistance remains constant over time, controlled by the time, the amplitude, and the polarity of the applied voltage. The unique hysteretic current-voltage characteristic in the memristor causes this element to act as a non-volatile resistive me...

Experimental Study on the Fire Resistance Performance of Prestressed Composite Beam with Corrugated Web under Standard Fire with Loading Condition

In this study, fire resistance tests were performed on a conventional slim floor beam and a prestressed composite beam with corrugated webs, which is suitable for a long-span structure with a reduction in story height by utilizing the prestress and accordion effect. In the fire test program, the ISO 834 standard fire curve was adopted. Key test variables were the effect of prestress, shape of c...

Fire and Reconstruction at Lobato Bridge in New Mexico

historic preservation. resulted in the D&RG abandoning the goal of building south to El Paso and focusing instead on building west to the mining camps of Leadville, Colorado, and the San Juan Mountains of southwest Colorado.4 In 1879 reconnaissance surveying was conducted, and contracts were let for the construction of the San Juan Extension. By April 1880 service was extended from Alamosa, Col...

Fire Under Fire: Proton Probabilities at Perihelion

This paper computes the probabilities that the near-Sun flyby mission, Fire, might be bombarded by high energy protons from solar-activity related proton acceleration lying beneath Fire’s perihelion altitude of three solar radii. Although the very largest interplanetary proton events are commonly believed to be caused by interplanetary shocks, this paper assumes the working hypothesis that ther...
