Abstract Strenx Section 900 is a cold-formed steel section made of hot-rolled, high-strength steel with a minimum yield strength of 900 MPa (131 ksi). Its high strength combined with naturally stiff form enables construction of stronger and lighter structures. The common shape is a U-bend channel. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, tensile properties, and bend strength as well as fracture toughness. It also includes information on forming, machining, and joining. Filing Code: SA-792. Producer or source: SSAB Swedish Steel Inc..

Diversion wall can improve bend flow patterns in an oxidation ditch. In this paper, a non-equal thickness diversion wall was proposed, and studied by numerical simulation method. The simulated velocity field of the new shape of oxidation ditch diversion wall was compared with that of the common shape diversion wall under the same boundary conditions, which shows that the new shape can better improve the bend flow patterns in an oxidation ditch, and reduce the size of the backflow area and increase the high-velocity region in the channel.

SummaryConsideration is given to the relationship H1 = f(H) linking the common shape factor H and the mass-flow shape parameter H1 which is used in entrainment models of boundary-layer development. A formula suggested by Green et al is found to be most nearly consistent with the measurements presented. However, a more exact prediction of H1 is obtained by introducing a factor involving the Reynolds number based on the local momentum thickness θ; thus H1 = f(H, Reθ). Predictions obtained by incorporating the appropriately modified entrainment equation into the well-known method of Green et al prove not to give an improved representation of the development of boundary layers studied experimentally by the authors and others. It is concluded that the modified formula for H1 is primarily useful in giving an improved specification of the overall boundary layer thickness δ = θ(H1 + H), and hence of other features of the developing profile.

“They Saw What They Said They Saw”: Sense Knowledge in Early Christian Polemic

A curious parallel exists between two early Christian discussions of prophetic or divine knowledge. Both deal with the Christian problem of sense knowledge about the divine in a thought world dominated by Platonic thinking: how can Christians base their knowledge of the divine upon the reports of the apostles who claim to have seen God in a human shape? The first of these discussions arises from criticisms from outside; Celsus, the second-century Platonist critic of Christianity, calls the Christians a carnal race who say that God is corporeal and has a human form, and complains, “How are they to know God unless they lay hold of him by sense-perception?” (C. Cel. 7.27, 37). The second comes from within the Christian camp, and is to be found in the Clementine Homilies. In this rather enigmatic text Simon Magus, the arch-heretic, accuses Peter in his reliance upon his apostolic experience of “introducing God in a shape,” and opposes to apostolic sense knowledge his own visionary experiences (Hom. 17.3). The examination of these two texts demonstrates that in their common terms and the common shape of their arguments the issue of the knowledge of the apostles was common in Christian polemics. It was also a problem for philosophically minded Christians who would prefer to place the knowledge of God, even if historically mediated by Jesus, in the intelligible knowledge of the soul, rather than in the senses.

In recent years, 3D media have become more and more widespread and have been made available in numerous online repositories. A systematic and formal approach for representing and organizing shape-related information is needed to share 3D media, to communicate the knowledge associated to shape modeling processes and to facilitate its reuse in useful cross-domain usage scenarios. In this paper we present an initial attempt to formalize an ontology for digital shapes, called the Common Shape Ontology (CSO). We discuss about the rationale, the requirements and the scope of this ontology, we present in detail its structure and describe the most relevant choices related to its development. Finally, we show how the CSO conceptualization is used in domain-specific application scenarios.
