Plate Connection

This paper proposes an approach for quantifying the demands on shear connections under the assumption of an ineffective column. Formulas and an algorithm are developed to evaluate the axial force, axial deformation, rotation, and moment demands on beam-to-column shear connections. The analysis algorithm developed is verified using a solved example found from literature. Parametric studies are conducted to determine important parameters in the connection modeling for resilience design. Furthermore, a detailed procedure indicating how to obtain the properties of an end-plate shear connection for its resilience design is provided. Four end-plate connection examples are employed to illustrate the proposed methodology. Finally, a capacity design concept is introduced for the ductility design of shear connections. This study demonstrates that shear connections should be designed explicitly for its resilience to resist progressive collapse of a girder-and-beam system.

This paper presents an analytical study on flush end-plate (FEP) and extended end-plate (EEP) connections connected to cruciform column section using component method. The objective of this study is to predict the moment resistance and initial stiffness of FEP and EEP connections on cruciform column section. A series of FEP and EEP connections are tested in laboratory. The connection tests consist of four FEP and four EEP specimens with different configuration. Component method outlined in the publication of Steel Construction Institute and British Constructional Steelwork Association are based on BS5950 and Eurocode 3 (EC3) are used to predict the moment resistance and initial stiffness of the tested specimens. The experimental results are then used to validate the analytical predictions. As compare to the experimental results, all moment resistance of the connections coincide well with analytical predictions. Analytical prediction for initial stiffness using EC3 does not show good agreement with the experimental results. This study shows that the component method can be used to predict the moment resistance of FEP and EEP connections on cruciform column section. Further study need to be carried out for initial stiffness to obtain accurate analytical representation.

This research article focuses on the theme of violence and its representation by the characters of the novel “This Savage Song” by Victoria Schwab. How violence is transmitted through genes to next generations and to what extent socio- psycho factors are involved in it, has also been discussed. Similarly, in what manner violent events and deeds by the parents affect the psychology of children and how it inculcates aggressive behaviour in their minds has been studied. What role is played by the parents in grooming the personality of children and ultimately their decisions to choose the right or wrong way has been argued. In the light of the theory of Judith Harris, this research paper highlights all the phenomena involved: How the social hierarchy controls the behaviour. In addition, the aggressive approach of the people in their lives has been analyzed in the light of the study of second theorist Thomas W Blume. As the novel is a unique representation of supernatural characters, the monsters, which are the products of some cruel deeds, this research paper brings out different dimensions of human sufferings with respect to these supernatural beings. Moreover, the researcher also discusses that, in what manner the curse of violence creates an inevitable vicious cycle of cruel monsters that makes the life of the characters turbulent and miserable.
