11.28: Seismic response of built-up steel columns with semi-continuous base-plate connections: Experimental results vs. theoretical predictions

The paper describes a comparison of experimental results and theoretical predictions regarding the lateral force-displacement response of built-up battened steel columns including semi-rigid and partial-strength base plate connections. Two specimens, representing samples of columns extracted from an existing industrial building, were fabricated and tested. Different types of both the battens and the base-plate connections characterized the two specimens. Preliminary lateral-loading tests in a range of elastic response, under varying levels of the concomitant axial force, allowed both exploring initial (elastic) stiffness and estimating yield displacements. Subsequently, cyclic lateral-loading tests with a given value of the axial force allowed investigating the restoring force characteristics in case of seismic actions. First, the paper describes and comments on the experimental performance of the two specimens. Second, numerical finite-element model predictions are illustrated and compared with experimental results. Third, based on the experimental results, as well as on the FE model analysis, the study looks for possible extensions and adaptations to current Eurocode 3 prediction models.

Interaction Of Shock Waves

Abstract In continuation of the work on interaction between shock waves and magnetic fields 1,2 the experiments reported here measured the atomic and electron densities in the interaction region by means of an interferometric and a spectroscopic method. The transient atomic density was also calculated using a one-dimensional theory based on the work of Johnson3 , but modified to give an improved physical model. The experimental results were compared with the theoretical predictions.

Insight Into

Abstract.This work measured $ \mathrm{d}\sigma/\mathrm{d}\Omega$dσ/dΩ for neutral kaon photoproduction reactions from threshold up to a c.m. energy of 1855MeV, focussing specifically on the $ \gamma p\rightarrow K^0\Sigma^+$γp→K0Σ+, $ \gamma n\rightarrow K^0\Lambda$γn→K0Λ, and $ \gamma n\rightarrow K^0 \Sigma^0$γn→K0Σ0 reactions. Our results for $ \gamma n\rightarrow K^0 \Sigma^0$γn→K0Σ0 are the first-ever measurements for that reaction. These data will provide insight into the properties of $ N^{\ast}$N* resonances and, in particular, will lead to an improved knowledge about those states that couple only weakly to the $ \pi N$πN channel. Integrated cross sections were extracted by fitting the differential cross sections for each reaction as a series of Legendre polynomials and our results are compared with prior experimental results and theoretical predictions.

A New Technique

Recirculation is an important factor in single needle dialysis and, if high, can compromise treatment efficiency. To provide information regarding recirculation characteristics of access devices used in single needle dialysis, we have developed a new technique to characterise recirculation and have used this to measure the recirculation of a Terumo 15G fistula needle and a VasCath SC2300 single lumen catheter. The experimentally obtained results agreed well with those established clinically (8.5 ± 2.4% and 18.4 ± 3.4%). The experimental results have also demonstrated a dependence on access type, pump speeds and fistula flow rate. A comparison of experimental data with theoretical predictions showed that the latter exceeded those measured with the largest contribution being due to the experimental fistula.

Effect Of Age

The control systems of accommodation and convergence in the human eye are theoretically examined, together with their interactions which represent accommodative convergence and convergence induced accommodation. A control model is proposed in order to help to understand the system, and it is used to make predictions concerning accommodation and convergence placed in conflict, monocular vision, fusional after-effects and the effect of age and drugs on accommodation and accommodative convergence. In each case the theoretical predictions are compared with established experimental results.
