Quasi-Static Compressive Behavior and Energy Absorption Performance of Polyether Imide Auxetic Structures Made by Fused Deposition Modeling by Jing Xu, Liubimau Aliaksandr, Hanna Narkevich, Sijia Hao, Yubin Chen, Yuguang He, Junpeng Tian, Shenglong Dai, Cheng Yang

“…It was found that the Poisson’s ratio and normalized equivalent Young’s modulus of ULTEM 9085 and ULTEM 1010 with the same geometries were very close, while the energy absorption of the ductile ULTEM 9085 was significantly higher than that of the brittle ULTEM 1010 structures. Furthermore, a linear correlation exists between the relative density and specific energy absorption of missing rib square grid structures within the investigated relative density range, whereas the relationship for re-entrant structures follows a power law. …”

Structure-Aware Bayesian Compressive Sensing for Near-Field Source Localization Based on Sensor-Angle Distributions by Si Qin, Yimin D. Zhang, Qisong Wu, Moeness G. Amin

“…In this method, a spike-and-slab prior is used to statistically encourage sparsity of the SAD across each segmented SAD region, and a patterned prior is imposed to enforce the continuous structure of the SAD. The results are then mapped back to source range and DOA estimation for source localization. …”

Assessment of Structural Integrity Through On-Site Decision-Making Analysis for a Jacket-Type Offshore Platform by Rodrigo Daniel Álvarez Bello Martínez, Juan Antonio Álvarez-Arellano, Youness El Hamzaoui

“…The environmental conditions include multi-directional wind, waves, currents, and seismic loads. In the static linear analyses (i, ii, and iii), the overall results confirm that the unity checks (UCs) for structural members, tubular joints, and piles remain below allowable thresholds (UC < 1.0), thus meeting API RP 2A-WSD, AISC, IMCA, and Pemex P.2.0130.01-2015 standards for different load demands. …”

The influence of digital village construction on agricultural green development-based on the mediate role of industrial structure upgrading by Zhaoguang Li, Kai Hu, Qinying Shi

“…The role and mechanism of China's digital rural construction in promoting the green development of the whole process of agricultural production needs further analysis.MethodsBased on the panel data of prefecture-level cities in Henan Province from 2013 to 2022, we used the entropy topsis model, the fixed effect model, the Tobit regression model, the intermediate effect model, and the threshold effect model, aiming to explore the effects of digital village construction on agricultural green development and their regional differences, impacts paths and non-linear effects.ResultsThe study found the following: (1) The level of agricultural green development and the digital village construction have increased in Henan province, with the latter exhibiting a spatial clustering phenomena. (2) Digital village construction has a significant positive effect on green agricultural development, but this effect does not exist in mountainous areas. (3) The digital village construction can impact green agricultural development through the updating of agricultural structures. (4) The positive influence of digital village construction on green agricultural development is non-linear, with a single-threshold and increasing marginal effects.DiscussionThese findings provide references for other countries to use digital elements to promote green and sustainable development of agriculture. …”

Study on the structural stability of partial cable-stayed bridges with multiple towers and high piers during construction. by Chenglong Zhu, Lingbo Wang, Yixiang Liu, Lin Kang, Xinjun Guo, Xiaobo Zheng

“…Furthermore, the impacts of the combination of the reduction of the main pier stiffness with two unfavorable factors (the detachment of the construction hanging basket and asymmetric construction on both sides of the main beam) on the construction safety and stability of the structure were explored. The results show that the stability coefficient of the structure during the entire construction process met the requirements of the corresponding specifications; the linear elastic stability coefficient at each stage was greater than 4.0, and the nonlinear stability coefficient was greater than 2.5. …”
