At present, the tubular structural systems are mainly used in tall buildings to withstand earthquake loads. Although it is possible to analyse the structure by finite element methods using standard three dimensional programs, the system is generally time-consuming and expensive in the primary design work. In this paper, for the analysis of Framed-Tube systems, a simple method was studied and de...

In the present study, the effect of core on shear lag phenomenon in tubular structures is investigated. Three different tubular structure models including model without core, model with central core and model with central core but eliminated in last 15 stories have been analyzed. A shear lag index is defined for evaluating these models. From examination of the results, the effective influence o...

aim : the aim of this study was to assess the incidence of irritable bowel syndrome in women undergoing hysterectomy and tubular ligation. background : the results of previous studies have shown an increased incidence of irritable bowel syndrome after gynecological surgeries. patients and methods : participants were patients of alzahra and taleghani university hospitals in tabriz. one hundred a...

The smallest triple ring tubular silicon cluster Mn2@Si15 is reported for the first time. Theoretical structural identification shows that the Mn2@Si15 tubular structure whose triple ring is composed by three five-membered Si rings in anti-prism motif, is stable in high symmetry (D5h) and singlet ground state ((1)A1'). The dimer Mn2 is placed inside the tubular along the C5 axis, and the Mn dop...

New hydrogels having the tubular structure of a-cyclodextrins (a-CDs) crosslinked by poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) (MT-PEG hydrogels) were prepared by using a hydrolyzable polyrotaxane. The hydrolyzable polyrotaxane, in which many a-CDs are threaded onto a PEG chain capped by a hydrolyzable ester moiety, was used to form a tubular structure in the hydrogel. After crosslinking with another PEG cha...
