Abstract: Head injuries induced by tennis ball impacts are computationally studied. The impact of a two-piece tennis ball on a human head is simulated by using an established full body model and a newly constructed tennis ball model. ...

Abstract: Intervertebral disk (IVD) is the largest avascular structure in human body, consisting of three types of charged hydrated soft tissues. Its mechanical behavior is nonlinear and anisotropic, due mainly to nonlinear interactions ...

Abstract: Low-frequency analyses are reported for four years of 3-day-mean satellite microwave and infrared data representative of temperatures in the stratosphere. In data representative of 30?150 mb temperatures oscillations with ...

Abstract: Focused on the problem that there was no traffic-load effect model for arch bridge suspenders, the health monitoring data based traffic-load effect model was studied. The composition modules and their functions of the ...

Abstract: Four years of satellite-derived microwave and infrared radiances are analyzed for the three-dimensional and seasonal variation of semiannual oscillations (SAO) in stratospheric temperatures, with particular focus on high ...

Abstract: Aimed at the capacity reduction factor of outside lane when buses move in and out of bus stops, using the related results of queuing theory and gap acceptance theory, the setting conditions of margin for the stops of single ...

Abstract: Using the flat steel-box girder of China’s Sutong Cable-stayed Bridge as a research object, its temperature field is long-term monitored and analyzed based on bridge’s structural health monitoring system. The temperature ...

Abstract: Taking advantage of the structural health monitoring system installed on the steel truss arch girder of the Dashengguan Yangtze Bridge, the monitoring correlation between strain and uniform temperature at night is obtained, ...
