The dynamic pile driving process is so complex that till now the analysis on the process had been focusing on the filed test or laboratory test. However, the past study about the dynamic process is a time consuming one; with the computational method development, the numerical simulation on this process is possible. In this paper, explicit dynamical analysis method is adopted, the pile is simulated using the elastic solid element, two computational cases are considered and finally the pile driving process dynamical stress is studied.

The loose lashing wire grouped blade, all blades of which are linked by a loose lashing wire, is a kind of damped blade. The linear analysis method cannot be used for the dynamic analysis of loose lashing wire grouped blade because of the contact between loose lashing wire and blades. A non-linear dynamic analysis method is advanced and an application of the method to a kind of loose lashing wire grouped blade is shown in this paper. First, the nonlinear transient dynamic analysis and maximum entropy spectrum analysis methods for loose lashing wire grouped blade are studied. Then, an algorithm to calculate the dynamical stress of loose lashing wire grouped blade with transient dynamical analysis method is proposed. The proposed method provides a useful numerical calculating method for the calculation of dynamical frequency and dynamical stress of loose lashing wire grouped blades.

Integrative taxonomy is an evolving field of multidisciplinary studies often utilised to elucidate phylogenetic reconstructions that were poorly understood in the past. The systematics of many taxa have been resolved by combining data from different research approaches, i.e., molecular, ecological, behavioural, morphological and chemical. Regarding molecular analysis, there is currently a search for new genetic markers that could be diagnostic at different taxonomic levels and that can be added to the canonical ones. In marine Heterobranchia, the most widely used mitochondrial markers, COI and 16S, are usually analysed by comparing the primary sequence. The 16S rRNA molecule can be folded into a 2D secondary structure that has been poorly exploited in the past study of heterobranchs, despite 2D molecular analyses being sources of possible diagnostic characters. Comparison of the results from the phylogenetic analyses of a concatenated (the nuclear H3 and the mitochondrial COI and 16S markers) dataset (including 30 species belonging to eight accepted genera) and from the 2D folding structure analyses of the 16S rRNA from the type species of the genera investigated demonstrated the diagnostic power of this RNA molecule to reveal the systematics of four genera belonging to the family Myrrhinidae (Gastropoda, Heterobranchia). The “molecular morphological” approach to the 16S rRNA revealed to be a powerful tool to delimit at both species and genus taxonomic levels and to be a useful way of recovering information that is usually lost in phylogenetic analyses. While the validity of the genera Godiva, Hermissenda and Phyllodesmium are confirmed, a new genus is necessary and introduced for Dondice banyulensis, Nemesis gen. nov. and the monospecific genus Nanuca is here synonymised with Dondice, with Nanuca sebastiani transferred into Dondice as Dondice sebastiani comb. nov.

AbstractTo design a more robust artifact, an artifact design based on a design rationale analysis is pivotal. Errors in previous design rationales that led to the degradation of artifact robustness in the past provide valuable knowledge towards improving the robust design. However, methods for exposing and analysing errors in design rationale remain unclear. This paper proposes a structured method for a design rationale analysis based on logical structuring. This method provides a well-constructed means of identifying and analysing errors in design rationale from the perspective of knowledge operation.

Since the aluminum alloy quenching is a complicated and a prompt heat-pressure coupling processing, traditional experimental tests and empirical judgments cannot explain and predict the physical and the force behavior completely during the quenching process. Dynamic simulation of the quenching process is conducted using the finite analysis method. Development laws of the stress and the strain field of the surface layer and core of the alloy during the quenching process are described based on the verification of the simulation. States and process history of the stress and the strain in each phase during the quench are obtained, which provides ponderable data and theoretical value for a fully understanding of the aluminum alloy quenching.

The spatial organization of the genome in the cell nucleus is pivotal to cell function. However, how the 3D genome organization and its dynamics influence cellular phenotypes remains poorly understood. The very recent development of single-cell technologies for probing the 3D genome, especially single-cell Hi-C (scHi-C), has ushered in a new era of unveiling cell-to-cell variability of 3D genome features at an unprecedented resolution. Here, we review recent developments in computational approaches to the analysis of scHi-C, including data processing, dimensionality reduction, imputation for enhancing data quality, and the revealing of 3D genome features at single-cell resolution. While much progress has been made in computational method development to analyze single-cell 3D genomes, substantial future work is needed to improve data interpretation and multimodal data integration, which are critical to reveal fundamental connections between genome structure and function among heterogeneous cell populations in various biological contexts. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Biomedical Data Science, Volume 4 is July 2021. Please see http://www.annualreviews.org/page/journal/pubdates for revised estimates.

The aim of this study was to assess and model the evolution of the hypsometric relationship in Araucaria angustifolia plantations grown in the 1940's and 1960's in the Irati National Forest, in the mid-south region of Paraná state, Brazil. Using the complete stem analysis method, it was possible to reconstitute the past annual growth of the diameter at 1.3 m (d) and of the total height (h) of a sample of 30 trees, selected so as to cover diametric and age variability. Eleven discs were removed from each tree at 0.1 and 1.3 m and at 15, 25, 35,..., 95% of the total height. Eleven models traditionally used in hypsometric relationships were tested, two of which were considered generic because they involved the age variable. The models were selected based on the Adjusted Coefficient of Determination (R²Adj), Standard Estimate Error (Syx), absolute (m) and relative (%), and on the graphic distribution of residues in percentage. In the models tested by age, no tendencies were observed and erros (Syx) remained below 14.6%, except for ages 5 and 11. However, the coefficients of determination were low, ranging from 0.29 to 0.55. The Curtis generic model (1970), selected to represent the h/d curve for all ages, also presented a satisfactory performance (R²Adj = 0.87 and Syx = 16%), with results similar to those obtained for the models in each age. As age increases, the h/d curve shifts to the right and changes level, remaining steep at the younger ages and more stable and flat as the population nears the end of its cycle.

In the past study the plastic region tightening has been applied to the bolted flange joint with smaller nominal diameter and its advantages have been demonstrated, however, behavior of the bolted flange joint with larger diameter is not investigated. Flange rotation of the bolted flange joint with large diameter increases when the internal pressure is applied. Gasket stress is not uniform and it may cause leak accident. So, it is necessary to investigate the behavior of the larger diameter flange. The present paper describes the behavior of bolted flange joint with large diameter under plastic region tightening. Firstly, API 20-inch flange joint tightened to the plastic region by bolt with a smaller diameter and superiority in the uniformity of the axial bolt force is demonstrated. And then the internal pressure is applied to the bolted flange joint and the behavior of the additional axial bolt force is demonstrated. The axial bolt force decreases with increasing the internal pressure, and the load factor is negative due to increasing of the flange rotation. However, the load factor of the bolted flange joint tightened to the plastic region by using the bolt with the smaller diameter approached zero. Using the bolts with smaller diameter is advantageous to the flange joint with the larger diamter, whose load factor is negative, to prevent the leakage. Additionally, the leak rate from the bolted flange joint is measured and the sufficient sealing performance is obtained.

The dynamical analysis of a rotating thin-walled composite shaft with internal damping is carried out analytically. The equations of motion are derived using the thin-walled composite beam theory and the principle of virtual work. The internal damping of shafts is introduced by adopting the multiscale damping analysis method. Galerkin’s method is used to discretize and solve the governing equations. Numerical study shows the effect of design parameters on the natural frequencies, critical rotating speeds, and instability thresholds of shafts.
