To circumvent such problems, Fig. 5 emphasises quantitative data (the layer 3 5 ratio) obtained for two or more projections in the same study, thus enabling a more robust comparison of ascending and descending connections assessed with identical methodology.
The innovative connection assessed in the study is a viable solution for applications in framed structures fulfilling capacity design requirements, e.g. structural systems in earthquake prone regions.
The methodology is applied in two cylindrical liquid storage tanks of different aspect ratios focusing on local performance of the welded connection, towards assessing the strength of the welded connection.
Being able to quickly review telephone connections to assess whether a network exists is critical to that effort.
The influence of axial compression ratio and slenderness ratio on the mechanical behavior of the connections was assessed by looking at hysteretic performance, backbone curves, characteristic loads and corresponding displacements, ductility, energy dissipation capacity, and stiffness degradation.
It's nothing less than the natural human ability to negotiate a vast amount of general knowledge -- to make connections and assess relationships between bits of information and discard useless facts and focus on what's most relevant -- and all very rapidly.
The consistency of novel connections was assessed from the repeat injections in areas V1, V2, and V4 (Table 3).
The discrepancy with the earlier cell-count data may reflect methodological differences, but can also be given a more systematic interpretation: that, similar to sensory cortex, the laminar patterns associated with the motor hierarchy obey the 'distance rule' (Barone et al. 2000), and are more marked when assessing connections over a larger number of levels.
In this paper, a novel beam-to-column steel moment connection, named "double reduced beam section (DRBS)" is introduced and the seismic performance of the connection is assessed using finite element modeling.
The self-healing effect of the capsule on the splice sleeve connection was assessed by a preliminary pull-out test.
