This paper presents buckling studies made on skew plates using finite element. The effects of the skew angle, aspect ratio, length-to-thickness-ratio, fibre orientation angle, and numbers of layers in the laminate and laminate sequence on the critical buckling load factor (Kcr) of antisymmetric composite laminates have also been presented. The critical buckling load factor (Kcr) is found to inc...

can sense the presence of Brady’s reagent among other nitro compounds! Distortional isomer is also known as bond-stretch isomer differs only in the length of one or more bonds, which has been found to be due to crystallographic disorder in most cases, but shown to exist in Cu(II) due to its plasticity. Here we have used the term distortional isomerism to describe the structures of polyrotaxane ...

In this paper, an analytical model is developed to determine the torsional-flexural buckling load of a channel column braced by unevenly distributed batten plates. Solutions of the critical buckling loads were derived for three boundary cases using the energy method in which the rotating angle between the adjacent battens was presented in the form of a piecewise cubic Hermite interpolation (PCH...

In this paper, the axisymmetric and non-axisymmetric buckling of finite elastic cylindrical shell, which is impacted on the end by axial step loads, is discussed with the aid of the stress wave propagating and reflecting. By solving the disturbed equations, the bifurcation condition of the dynamic buckling, critical buckling load and buckling mode are obtained. The results show that when the th...

In order to deal with power quality problems under distortional and unbalanced load conditions, this paper presents a new control method for a four-wire three-phase unified power quality conditioner (UPQC) which is based on instantaneous power p-q theory. The proposed control approach is based on instantaneous power and is optimized by using a self-tuning filter (STF), without using any low-pas...

Transition state analogs mimic the geometry and electronics of the transition state of enzymatic reactions. These molecules bind to the active site of the enzyme much tighter than substrate and are powerful noncovalent inhibitors. Immucillin-H (ImmH) and 4'-deaza-1'-aza-2'-deoxy-9-methylene Immucillin-H (DADMe-ImmH) are picomolar inhibitors of human purine nucleoside phosphorylase (hPNP). Altho...

A distributed Brillouin fiber sensor has been employed to detect localized pipe-wall buckling in an energy pipe by measuring the longitudinal and hoop strain distributions along the outer surface of the pipe for the first time. The locations of the localized pipe-wall buckling are found and distinguished using their corresponding strain-load data. The formation of the buckling process for the c...
