Alchemical Transformation and the Grief-Threshold in H.D.'s Helen in Egypt
… a phenomenological transformation in the brazier of the heart, which burns both on the beach of her new home in Egypt and in the depths of her psychic life. I have envisioned a process by which Helen psychologically enters into the brazier's flames to begin an alchemical process, so that …

The quasi-static and dynamic responses of metallic sandwich structures
… faces present. In contrast, long beams fail by Brazier plastic buckling and for this collapse mechanism, the presence of a back face strengthens the beam. Third, drop weight tests with an impact velocity of 5 m/s are performed on simply supported and clamped sandwich beams with a corrugated core …

Archi-Culture or Agri-Tecture: The Garden in The Machine
Since the late 19th century, Urban Agriculture has served its respective context in more ways than just food production. The Urban farm became the center of community, essential democratic space where neighbors from all walks of life could share stories, recipes, farming practices and resources …

Analysis, Design, and Experimentation of Beam-Like Structures
… to the presence of wrinkling and/or the Brazier effect (ovalling of the cross section) for flexible beams. The presented work has applications in programmable buckling, uncertainty quantification, and design of futuristic HAAP models to help face the upcoming environmental crises and meet …

To investigate whether VEGF and KDR polymorphisms are associated with chronic Achilles tendinopathy and self-reported measurements of tendon pain
Background: Chronic Achilles tendinopathy (AT) is prevalent in the sporting population, specifically in sporting codes with a large running component, and presents as swelling, impaired lower limb function, and pain of insidious onset. Although the mechanisms are unclear, current theories implicate …

Mobile Carbon Footprinting: Sensing and Shaping the Carbon Emissions of Daily Activities Using Digital Technologies
Lifestyle changes for reducing greenhouse gas emissions are becoming a necessary component of climate change mitigation. Data-driven digital tools for encouraging widespread participation in bottom-up emissions reduction and climate action do not yet exist, however, and emissions remain illegible …

Analysis and Design of Variable Stiffness Composite Cylinders
… a nonlinear shell boundary layer as well as the Brazier effect due to nonlinear bending of long cylinders. Stress analysis and initial buckling estimates are formulated for a general variable stiffness cylinder. Results and comparisons for several simplifications of these highly complex governing …
