The PBA technique developed is shown to be efficient and accurate and can be used directly in the performance-based design of thin-walled CFST beam columns and implemented in advanced analysis programs for composite columns and frames.
In this study, a health management program for a composite train carbody was developed using the acquired strain distributions from fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor arrays.
This paper presents a general and effective procedure based on a mathematical programming approach for composite structures optimal design, under weight, stiffness and strength criteria.
The formalism can serve as: (i) a basis for a scripting language for programming composite systems, and (ii) a language for specifying these systems (whether existing or to be built) and then reasoning with specifications of these systems.
The development programs for ''new'' composite structures should come with a parallel design process development, including a special new building block approach (NBBA) that embraces ''scale-up'' of design data.
The box has inputs for composite, component and S-Video, as well as VGA.
b = test for composite genetic dominance effect.
In this paper an experimental program for characterizing the effect of voids on the composite materials behaviour is presented.
For research and program evaluation, the composite measure provides a method to synthesize multiple perspectives on current status.
Ordered logistic regression models sought to explore the association between personal and program characteristics on composite scores for overall knowledge and specific domains of pregnancy, postpartum, newborn care, and child health (Additional file 1: Tables S1 and S2).
