In soft-crystal columns of short hexacatenar hydrazine rods[ 27] or broader board-like perylene bisimides[ 28] it was found that molecular pairs stack on top of one another with a nearly 90° twist.
The building opened last month on the campus, perched on a hill, replacing the dingy 1960s basement space with a double-vaulted ceiling, classical columns, soft colors and intricate details highlighted by Mr. Hauben's 22 oil paintings.

A two-dimensional (2D) finite difference method was adopted in this study to estimate the factor of safety (FS) against deep-seated failure of embankments over stone column-improved soft clay based on individual column and equivalent area models.
I didn't fully appreciate it at the time but, looking back, the lineup was unmissable: Siouxsie and the Banshees, Echo and the Bunnymen, U2, Young Marble Giants, the Durutti Column, Soft Cell, the Psychedelic Furs, Altered Images..
On the basis of tray temperature measurements of the column, soft sensor models for estimation of 95%ASTM-D86ASTM-D86uct streams have been developed.

The causes of structural failures due to the earthquake included soft story, strong beam weak column designs, short columns, deficient beam column joints, non-ductile detailing, unreinforced masonry and inadequate construction quality.
