Timber-concrete composite beams are a new type of structural element that is environmentally friendly. The structural efficiency of this kind of beam highly depends on the stiffness of the interlayer connection. The structural efficiency of the composite was evaluated by experimental and theoretical investigations performed on the relative horizontal slip and vertical uplift along the interlayer between composite’s timber and concrete slab. Differential equations were established based on a theoretical analysis of combination effects of interlayer slip and vertical uplift, by using deformation theory of elastics. Subsequently, the differential equations were solved and the magnitude of uplift force at the interlayer was obtained. It was concluded that the theoretical calculations were in good agreement with the results of experimentation.

Using disk form multilayers, a semi-analytical solution has been derived for determination of displacements and stresses in a rotating cylindrical shell with variable thickness under uniform pressure. The thick cylinder is divided into disk form layers form with their thickness corresponding to the thickness of the cylinder. Due to the existence of shear stress in the thick cylindrical shell with variable thickness, the equations governing disk layers are obtained based on first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT). These equations are in the form of a set of general differential equations. Given that the cylinder is divided intondisks,nsets of differential equations are obtained. The solution of this set of equations, applying the boundary conditions and continuity conditions between the layers, yields displacements and stresses. A numerical solution using finite element method (FEM) is also presented and good agreement was found.

A new type of X-ray diffuse scattering has been found in the early stages of decomposition of the hexagonal phase of Mn–44at.% Al. The diffuse scattering is observed mainly within the basal plane of the reciprocal lattice and differs for the 10{\bar 1}l and 11{\bar 2}l points. Theoretical calculations of the X-ray diffuse scattering according to the kinematic scattering theory have been performed for the elastically isotropic and anisotropic cases and for precipitates of various forms and orientations with and without a depleted layer surrounding them. In the latter case, a zero-intensity region near the reciprocal-lattice points occurs. There are cases of good agreement between the experimental results and calculations for the precipitates with a depleted layer.

As a general trend, in order to reduce material consumption or to reduce the mass of the structures, composite floor slabs solutions are used to achieve large spans floor slabs. This solutions led to floors sensitive to vibrations induced generally by human activities. As a verification of the design concepts of the composite floors, usually, it is recommended a further examination of the floor after completion by experimental tests. Although the experimental values of the dynamic response of the floor are uniquely determined, the processing can take two directions of evaluation. The first direction consist in determining the dynamic characteristics of the floor and their comparison with the design values. Another way that can be followed in the processing of the experimental results is to consider the human perception and comfort to the vibration on floors. The paper aims to present a case study on a composite floor, with steel beams and concrete slab, tested on-site. Both aspects of data processing are analyzed, in terms of the structural element, and in terms of the effect on human perception and comfort. Experimentally obtained values for the dynamic characteristics of the floor are compared with numerical values from finite element analysis, while the second type of characteristic values are compared with various human comfort threshold values found in international standards.

The 1Hmr study of the title compounds has revealed a screw conformation, with defined interconversion processes, in good agreement with crystal structure determinations and theoretical calculations. The mesomeric effect of the heteroatom is smaller than in the anisole series, due to steric inhibitions.The 13Cmr enhances, to some extent, these conclusions. In the case of Te compounds, a heavy atom effect adds to the classical mesomeric and inductive effects to account for the experimental observations.

Sinusoidal shear deformation theory is presented to analyze the natural frequencies of simply supported laminated composite plates. The governing differential equations based on sinusoidal theory are solved by a Navier-type analytical method. The present results are compared with the available published results which verify the accuracy of sinusoidal theory.

The ground structure, elastic and electronic properties of several phases of NbN are determined based on ab initio total-energy calculations within the framework of density functional theory. Among the five crystallographic structures that have been investigated, the hexagonal phases have been found to be more stable than the cubic ones. The calculated equilibrium structural parameters are in good agreement with the available experimental results. The elastic constants of five structures in NbN are calculated, which are in consistent with the obtained theoretical and experimental data. The corresponding Debye temperature and elastic ansitropies are also obtained. The Debye temperature of NbN in various structures consistent with available experimental and theoretical data, in which the Debye temperature of δ-NbN is highest. The anisotropies of ZB-NbN, NaCl-NbN, CsCl-NbN gradually increases. For hexagonal structure, the anisotropies of ε-NbN are stronger than that of δ-NbN. The electronic structures of NbN under pressure are investigated. It is found that NbN have metallization and the hybridizations of atoms in NbN under pressure become stronger.

This paper presents a theoretical analysis for the incompressible MHD stagnation-point flows of a Non-Newtonian Fluid over stretching sheets.The governing system of partial differential equations is first transformed into a system of dimensionless ordinary differential equations. By using the homotopy analysis method, a convergent series solution is obtained. The reliability and efficiency of series solutions are illustrated by good agreement with numerical results in the literature.Besides, the effects of the power-law indexthe magnetic field parameter and velocity ratio parameter on the flow are investigated.

The design of mechanisms for use in practical machinery applications is often of a trial-and-error nature based on traditional practice. Much emphasis has been given to the theory of mechanisms in recent years but this has yet to find wide practical application. This paper is a case study of how a basic idea, conceived by University-based inventors and intended to improve a slow method of making a textile pile fabric, became a reality in the form of a completely new type of high-speed textile machine for making an improved textile product, all within a time scale of four years. It also shows how recent University researches are further advancing its potential from both the machinery manufacturing and textile technology aspects. Step-by-step from the early experimental stages, it illustrates how the challenges of developing the novel mechanisms required for this unconventional machine and process were met by combining practical experience of traditional machinery design with theoretical investigations based on the new techniques of mechanism analysis and synthesis.

Abstract A new type all optical vibration and acceleration sensor using the combination of micromachined Si cantilever and optical fiber is proposed, and its fundamental characteristics are demonstrated. The light emitted from bulb-lens set into the V-groove is reflected at the reflector formed on the Si cantilever and then recoupled into the bulb-lens. Several sensors with different length (0.64–6.0 mm long) of the Si cantilever are fabricated to compare the theoretical resonance frequency fr obtained from the simple model and experimental ones. They had good agreement. From the sensing principle the sensing frequency range of the vibration is suitable below the fr of the Si cantilever of the sensor.
