Further studies are needed to verify the reinforcement design for anchor connections.
The successful tests indicated that well confined core concrete, even within plastic hinge zones, can support anchor connections in shear.
Concrete breakout is a brittle failure mode and thus not preferred for anchor connections in seismic zones (Petersen et al. 2013a).
Meanwhile, beam/column ends, where anchor connections are placed, are likely to develop significant damages during an earthquake (Ibarra and Krawinkler 2005).
Anchor connections are loaded along with concrete structures in reality; therefore the test of Specimen S2 was slightly modified: both the column and the anchors were subjected to loading simultaneously.
Next, we further anchor the connection with our existing support groups of family and friends.
Created by a team at Imperial College, the Blocks modular smartwatch uses a screen that links up to small segments in a band using small metal jacks that act as both the joining anchors and the connections for passing data between the modules.
The behavior of concrete anchors as a connection between steel members and concrete has been extensively studied as summarized in Cook and Klingner (1992), Grauvilardell et al. (2005), Eligehausen et al. (2006), and Pallarés and Hajjar (2010).
There are investigated conditions when the fundamental geometric objects (anchor, metric and linear connection, almost symplectic, and related almost complex structures) may be canonically defined by an N-connection induced from a regular Lagrangian (or Hamiltonian), in mechanical models, or by generic off-diagonal metric terms and nonholonomic frames, in gravity theories.
In the case of pharyngeal attachment, changes in cell shape and orientation at the anterior end of the pharynx lead to epithelial connections that anchor the pharynx to the mouth of the animal; this connection is ultimately required for the proper elongation of the organ as a whole.
