The elastic effect of columns on the moments in slabs due to vertical loads
… the experimental plate, the case of an interior panel of an infinitely large slab was used, This case produced solutions of greater negative stresses at the columns and lesser positive stresses at the center, than the experimental results. If an analogy is drawn between the slab supported on its …

The effects of end restraint on steel deck reinforced concrete floor systems
… concrete floor systems has been carried out on single-span, single panel width test specimens. Little of this research has considered the benefits that actual field conditions have on overall strength and stiffness. This experimental study investigates typical field details at intermediate …

Computational Modeling of Glass Curtain Wall Systems to Support Fragility Curve Development
… of CWs. A 3D finite element (FE) model of a single panel CW unit was generated including explicit modeling of the CW components and component interactions such as aluminum-to-rubber constraints, rubber-to-glass and glass-to-frame contact interactions, and semi-rigid transom-mullion …

The effects of typical construction details on the strength of composite slabs
… slabs has been centered primarily around single span, single panel width slabs with unrestrained ends. The test specimens in this study are more representative of actual slab construction. The effects of multiple spans, multiple panels, end restraint from pour stops, and deck anchorage …

Frequency estimation of pre-stressed and composite floors
… have been identified. A new linear-elastic single panel or beam finite element model, correlated with the experimental results, has been developed for the accurate estimation of the fundamental natural frequency of these floors. The correct boundary conditions for various categories of …

Early stage product design process : a case study of an educational building kit
… lamp proportions, a final intuitive UI with a single panel of buttons was converged upon. This UI utilized one button to switch through the four possible light modes instead of having a separate button for each mode. This UI will be employed in a future prototype that will be further tested …

Acoustical characterization and parameter optimization of polymeric noise control materials
… that affect performance, are developed for single layer panel configuration and adapted for layered panel construction with homogenous core. An optimum set of material parameters is selected and translated into practical applications for validation. Sound attenuating thermoplastic materials …

Structural-acoustic design and control of an integrally actuated composite panel
… The basic representative structural element of a single panel offers an analytically tractable basis for examining various control methodologies for mitigating the acoustic response. An electro-mechanical Rayleigh-Ritz structural model is combined with an expression of the acoustic power radiated …

Design and Control of Charge-Pumped Reboost Converter for PV Applications
… non-linear output power with respect to PV panel operating voltage or current. The majority of PV sources yield poor conversion efficiencies between available solar radiation and electrical output. Additionally, they are expensive compared to other conventional power sources. Power …

Constructing Vision: László Moholy-Nagy's Partiturskizze zu einer mechanischen Exzentrik, Experiments in Higher Spatial Dimensions
… drawing, each chapter is an interpretation of a single panel of the drawing, corresponding to the prelude and the five acts of the performance. This interpretation was made through a close reading of the drawing itself, examining the references made in the images and notations, comparing the two …

Demographic Dividend in Central Asia
… data from the five Central Asian states using a panel fixed-effects model with Driscoll-Kraay-corrected robust standard errors in a single panel estimation. Next, we analyze the impact of the demographic transition on poverty and inequality reduction in Central Asia. Although the economies of all …

Comparison and Design of High Efficiency Microinverters for Photovoltaic Applications
… Renewal energy sources such as photovoltaic (PV) panels have become more popular due to recent developments in PV panel manufacturing that decreases material costs and improves energy harvesting efficiency. Since PV sources are DC sources power conversion stages have to be used in order to …
