When the out-of-plane stiffness of a beam is remarkably lower than the in-plane stiffness, the lateral-torsional buckling occurs. In this study, the behavior of mono-symmetric I-beams with discrete torsional and lateral bracings under the concentrated moment is investigated using the finite element analyses. Then, based on the numerical analyses, equation for the stiffness requirement is propos...

The main aim of this article is to study (v,k,λ)-symmetric designs admitting a flag-transitive and point-primitive automorphism group G whose socle is PSL(3,q). We indeed show that the only possible design satisfying these conditions is a Desarguesian projective plane PG(2,q) and G > PSL(3,q).

Controversial views have been expressed about whether tarantula feet can secrete fine silk threads that could prevent them from falling off smooth vertical surfaces. Two studies have claimed that 'ribbed hairs' on the tarsi of tarantulas produce silk. We examined these ribbed hairs in several tarantula species using light and scanning electron microscopy, and compared them with the silk-produci...

the main aim of this article is to study (v,k,λ)-symmetric designs admitting a flag-transitive and point-primitive automorphism group g whose socle is psl(3,q). we indeed show that the only possible design satisfying these conditions is a desarguesian projective plane pg(2,q) and g > psl(3,q).

Multi-ribbed frame grid (hereinafter referred to as MRFG) is an important part of Multi-ribbed composite wall and consisted of outer frame and ribbed grid. The reinforcement of outer frame is the main influence factor on the performance of MRFG. In this study, an MRFG specimen under laterally cyclic and axial loading in literature is numerically simulated with 5 kinds of different reinforcement...
