Abstract:
The strength members, such as front-end side members, are subjected to axial compressive and bending load during collision. Therefore, it is important to consider energy absorption by the axial compression and the bending for design of effective strength members. And at the same time, it also should consider reducing weight of the members. In this study, CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics) side members with single-hat-section shape were manufactured. The axial compression and the bending tests were performed for the members using universal testing machine, and the axial compression and the

This paper examines the seismic performance of Japanese traditional wooden structures considering stiffness and strength aging changes in old structural members. In strength and embedding testing done to evaluate the strength properties of old structural members, results showed that zelkova has a Young’s modulus similar or larger than new members. In nonlinear earthquake response analysis for a Kiyomizudera model based on test results, maximum angle response of columns was decreased reflecting old zelkova stiffness and strength.

Currently, stacking condition related to the energy absorption of composite materials is being considered as an issue for the structural efficiency and safety of automobiles, aerospace vehicles, trains, ships even elevators during collision.

Abstract:
Abstract Steel frame wind bracing systems are usually made of hot rolled profiles connected to frame elements directly or through a gusset plate. The behaviour of angle bracing members is generally complex since controlled by tension or compression, bending and torsion. The common practice is to transform the problem of complex behaviour into the buckling strength of a truss member. This paper deals with an analytical formulation of the force-deformation characteristic of a single angle brace subjected to compression.

The requirements for the interconnection of starred angle compression members contained in North American standards vary greatly from those of European standards. The North American standards, which require only one interconnector for any starred angle made with equal leg angles, are the most liberal. The British standard, on the other hand, is the most conservative.A theoretical study of "slender" starred angles indicates that the buckled shape changes when the number of interconnectors is increased from one to two. There is a corresponding increase in the critical load. The addition of more

Stainless steel has garnered attention as an alternative structural material to conventional carbon steel due to its corrosion resistance properties and aesthetic appearance. Of interest are single angles, which are frequently used in trusses, transmission towers, and as bracing diaphragms. When subjected to compression, knowledge concerning the behavior, analysis, and design of stainless steel single angles is very limited.

Abstract:
M.Ing. (Civil Engineering)<br>Cold-formed steel lipped channels are among the most used sections, as framing members in the building construction industry, especially in residential, commercial and industrial buildings. In portal frame, when lipped channels are used as main frame members, they are usually restrained from the top flange through angle-cleat to prevent lateral-torsional buckling. This restraining system works together with an additional restrain system called fly-bracing. Drilling a bolt-hole or welding the angle cleat onto the flange of the main frame weakens its bearing length.

Abstract:
Postmortem analysis of young sudden cardiac death patients leads to a diagnosis of structural cardiac disease in the majority of cases. However, despite thorough autopsy, including toxicological and histological analysis, in one-third of patients no cause of death is identified and these patients are classified as sudden unexplained death or sudden arrhythmic death syndrome. Postmortem genetic testing in these patients can establish a genetic aetiology of sudden cardiac death, which allows for appropriate screening and management of family members at risk of sudden cardiac death.

Abstract:
Ryan A. Shenvi at the Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla has reported (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2012, 134, 2012) a procedure for the stereoselective formal hydroamination of aminodienes to produce indolizidines. The procedure involves an amine-directed hydroboration, followed by a B to N bond migration (cf. 2) that is induced with molecular iodine and sodium methoxide. The pyrrolidinyl alcohols 3 generated upon oxidation can then be converted by a Mitsunobu reaction to the target bicyclic structures, including indolizidine 207A. Jeremy A. May at the University of Houston has shown (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2012, 134, 6936) that a biomimetic strategy to access members of the flindersial alkaloids is viable. Borrerine can be prepared in two steps from tryptamine and subsequently dimerized by treatment with acid. Notably, the exclusive formation of either flinderoles A and C or isoborreverine can be achieved by treatment with either acetic acid or BF3•OEt2, respectively. The different outcomes of these dimerizations are the result of competing formal [3+2] and [4+2] cycloaddition pathways. The unusual paracyclophane-containing alkaloid haouamine B has undergone (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2012, 134, 9291) a structural revision by Eva Zubia at the University of Cádiz due to the total synthesis of the reported structure (now called isohaouamine B) by Dirk Trauner at the University of Munich. To construct the strained paracyclophane moiety, the iodoamine 4 was deprotected and cyclized to produce structure 5. Aromatization of the cyclohexenone ring then provided the energetic offset for the strain present in 6. This route provided useful quantities of isohaouamine B for biological testing. Few natural products have captured the imaginations of chemists more than strychnine, and some of the most impressive achievements in the field of total synthesis have come from those who have taken up this challenge. David W.C. MacMillan at Princeton University has designed (Nature 2011, 475, 183) an enantioselective approach that not only furnishes (–)-strychnine in 12 steps, but also provides rapid access to a range of other biosynthetically related yet structurally diverse alkaloids, including (–)-akuammicine, (+)-aspidospermidine, (+)-vincadifformine, and (–)-kopsanone.
