Besides, it is found from finite element results that, if the planar truss arch is manufactured by using intersecting joints between web members and chord tubes and is laterally restrained on top chord tubes, the out-of-plane buckling of bottom chord tubes will fully be prohibited.
There are several sets of joints/fractures and the intersecting joints are forming the wedge and hence resulting in the wedge failure.
Many members are leaders of other MIT initiatives, facilitating development of intersecting and productive joint programs with MIT-Africa.
The highly pervious feature, which is located near an underground opening and connected to a large source of water, can provide a path for relatively high-head water to the joints intersecting the opening.
If the state of stress, or the geological conditions, of joints intersecting a packer interval are significantly different from those intersecting the tunnel, the equivalent hydraulic conductivity estimated from the test might not be representative in estimating groundwater inflow rate into the tunnel.
From perspective of structure synthesis, certain special geometric constraints, such as joint axes intersecting at one point or perpendicular to each other, are necessary in realizing the end-effector motion of kinematically decoupled parallel manipulators (PMs) along individual motion axes.
Oda's leading imagination is an open penny-shaped crack or joint, intersected by a borehole.
Boss, in medieval architecture, keystone used in vaulting to provide a junction for intersecting ribs and to cover the actual complex of mitred joints.
Due to the high permeability of pre existing rock joints, fractures prefer to initiate at joint tips after the joint is intersected by a fluid driven fracture.
Compared to the standard practice of intersecting predictions of independently-trained models, joint training provides a 32% reduction in AER.
