Abstract:

Penetration of high velocity is of concern for both civilian and military research for decades, and computerized simulation is the scholarâ s focus in recent years. This study presents a study on the Discrete Element Method (DEM) simulation of plain concrete targetâ s behavior under high-velocity penetration of rigid projectile. In this thesis, different types of research works including empirical, analytical and numerical methods in penetration by the previous scholars were carefully reviewed. A DEM-based concrete model was established by using software PFC3D. The major micro-variables o

Abstract:

The purpose of this thesis is to gain understanding of the load on flat target surfaces produced by projectile impact. Models are proposed from which upper and lower bounds can be derived for the transition be-tween interface defeat and normal penetration. It is shown that the dominating contribution to the normal load is generally provided by the hydrodynamic pressure due to the effect of inertia. In addition it is shown that the contributions from yield strength and compressibility are also significant. For a cylindrical tungsten alloy projectile at an impact velocity representative of to-da

We use the three-dimensional finite element code DYNA3D to analyze two problems: (a) the normal impact of a cylindrical monolithic or composite rod against a smooth flat rigid target, (commonly known as the Taylor impact test), and (b) the penetration of composite and monolithic steel cylindrical rods into reinforced concrete targets. The composite rod is made of either a steel or copper shell enclosing a ceramic. The ceramic and the steel are assumed to fail at a critical value of the effective plastic strain, whereas no failure is considered in the copper. The thermoviscoplastic response

To do that, an emerging class of drugs called peptides are explored. The lead peptide of this work successfully kills breast cancer cells via LDH5 inhibition.

Abstract:

Hydrocarbon-stapled alpha-helical peptides represent a relatively new class of synthetic peptidomimetics capable of inhibiting protein-protein interactions. It has been shown that hydrocarbon "staples" spanning one or two helical turns in a peptide increase alpha-helical content and protease resistance, enhance target binding affinity, and promote cell penetration. This technology has been applied to the development of cell-permeable ligands targeting several intracellular targets.

<p>The ground penetrating radar (GPR) is one of the most popular and successful sensing modalities that have been investigated for buried target detection (BTD). GPR offers excellent detection performance, however, it is limited by a low rate of advance (ROA) due to its short sensing standoff distance. Standoff distance refers to the distance between the sensing platform and the location in front of the platform where the GPR senses the ground. Large standoff (high ROA) sensing modalities have been investigated as alternatives to the GPR but they do not (yet) achieve comparable detection
