Abstract From 1930 to 1960, in Belgium, steel railway bridges were regularly designed using the vierendeel system. Three lines cross Mechelen‐Leuven canal town of Mechelen, providing a unique example this type application. Two these bridges, which constructed 1953 renovated 2021–2022, including installation new rail fastening. It was discovered that 1936‐built third and oldest bridge had multip...

the effect of steel plate thickness on the repair effectiveness of rc beam is presented in this paper. a total of four beams were tested, one beam repaired by cfrp with a thickness of 1.2 mm and used as a control beam, and three beams repaired by a steel plate. steel plates with a thickness of 2 mm, 3 mm, and 4 mm were used in repairing the beams. the maximum load-carrying capacity, deflection ...

Cell growth is a complex phenotype widely used in systems biology to gauge the impact of genetic and environmental perturbations. Due to the magnitude of genome-wide studies, resolution is often sacrificed in favor of throughput, creating a demand for scalable, time-resolved, quantitative methods of growth assessment. We present ODELAY (One-cell Doubling Evaluation by Living Arrays of Yeast), a...

The stability analysis of sleeve stiffened pin-ended slender hollow columns of pipe or box section is performed in the present study. This is accomplished by using energy method, employing three terms in the assumed approximate deflection function. The lengthy and tedious algebraic manipulations involved in solving the relevant eigenvalue problem, necessitates employing the "MATHEMATICA" softwa...
