During construction of concrete faced rockfill dam (CFRD), the extrusion-sidewall will be protruding or deficiency under normal. Before panel construction, local slope cutting should taken for squeezed side wall supplementary filling measures after excavating wall, which affect mechanical deformation panel. According to monitoring data concrete-faced dams some hydro-electric station in Hubei Pr...

Two groups of rats in Experiment 1 were required to escape from a square pool by swimming to 1 of 2 submerged platforms that were situated beside the centers of 2 opposite walls. To help rats find a platform, black panels of equal width were pasted to the middle of the walls that were adjacent to the platforms. The width of the 2 panels was 50 cm for Group 50, and 100 cm for Group 100. Test tri...

The development of value added composite products from bamboo with the application of gluing technology can play a vital role in economic development and also in forest resource conservation of any country. In this study, the gluability of Bambusa balcooa and Bambusa vulgaris, two locally grown bamboo species of Bangladesh was assessed. As the culm wall thickness of bamboos decreases from botto...

A persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) was present in a 74 year-old man with dilated cardiomyopathy undergoing implantation of a cardiac resynchronization therapy device with defibrillator (CRT-D). A dual-coil active-fixation defibrillator lead was positioned in the right ventricular apex, followed by a SonR active fixation lead in the right atrial free wall. The coronary sinus lead was a...

Lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose are the three main components of the plant cell wall and can impact stalk quality by affecting cell wall structure and strength. In this study, we evaluated the lignin (LIG), cellulose (CEL) and hemicellulose (HC) contents in maize using an association mapping panel that included 368 inbred lines in seven environments. A genome-wide association study using ap...

Soo-Kwan Jang Choon-Sang Park Heung-Sik Tae (SID Member) Bhum Jae Shin (SID Member) Jeong Hyun Seo (SID Member) Eun-Young Jung Abstract — To investigate the influence of the gas condition, especially xenon (Xe) gas, on the wallvoltage variation in relation to the electric-field intensity during the address period, the wall voltages were measured under various Xe-gas content ranging from 11 to 2...

In this research, styrofoam lightweight concrete panel walls were used with dimensions (1000 mm x 500 60 mm) connected using a purus connection. This connection is because the setting time faster and application easier than joints in general. The tests carried out study flexural strength tests. test consisted of 2 variations objects, including wall panels 50% 70% usage. Based on results test, c...

Prefabricated modular housing structures have become a promising alternative to site-built structures with equal or higher engineering quality and durability. Major advantages of this technology are fast and cost-efficient construction, reduced labor requirements, and superior quality control due to factory production. The modular design of these prefabricated structures offers the opportunity ...

In recent years off-site construction has become popular in North America due to the superior quality of the product, improved productivity, and reduced environmental impact. The panelized construction approach is one of the most readily utilized off-site construction methods. In a wood-frame panelized construction plant, wall panels are customized according to various design parameters such as...
