Development of Link Column Frame System for Seismic Resistance of Reinforced Concrete Structures
Authors: Joseph Joel Shelton , Gladston Hemalatha , Vellapandi Venkatesh 
Published: July 2018

AbstractThe purpose of the link column frame is to provide acceptable collapse prevention performance and to allow for easy repairs following a moderate earthquake. The experimental and analytical studies that are presented in this article mainly focus on the behavior of normal and link column reinforced concrete (RC) frames with different connection configurations. Quasi-static cyclic load experimental results are presented and discussed for seven 1:3 scaled RC frames with and without link columns. There are various connections between the main beam and the link column. With respect to experimental results and using ANSYS software, the finite element model related to these frames is made and calibrated, and then nonlinear analysis under cyclic static loading is performed. The experimental results show that the yield strength and ultimate strength capacities of the link column frames increase with a decrease in relative story drifts, especially in the hinged link column frame that was designed according to IS 12303-1987, Criteria for Design of RCC Hinges. Greater amounts of energy were dissipated by the link column frame, which has a hinge connection designed according to IS 12303-1987; this connection was found to be more effective and reliable. When compared with the normal frame, the link column frame with the proper connection dissipates more energy by shear yielding of the link beam. The additional link provides extra stiffness to the entire system.

Abstract
Hot-dip galvanizing is the process of submerging steel elements into molten zinc to form a metallurgically bonded zinc coating that serves as corrosion protection for the steel substrate. Used with great success on an industrial scale for many decades, hot-dip galvanizing is a ubiquitous process. On occasion, cracks in steel members develop during galvanizing. While such cracking remains a poorly understood phenomenon, previous research has attributed the formation of cracks to the combined effects of residual strains introduced by welding and temperature-induced deformations caused by the hot-dip galvanizing process. This article presents thermomechanical analyses of a structural steel beam with a welded double-angle connection detail where cracking occurred during hot-dip galvanizing. Three-dimensional finite element models of the beam and connection detail were analyzed using the finite element analysis software Abaqus (Dassault Systèmes, Vélizy-Villacoublay, France). The welding process was simulated using the Abaqus Welding Interface, maintaining the welding sequence of the connection. After welding, the entire beam was subjected to a temperature field that was specified through a user subroutine in Abaqus, simulating the hot-dip galvanizing process. The temperature field had a bath temperature of 450°C and a thermal cycle that included dipping, dwell time, and removal from the bath. Material properties used in the simulation were nonlinear and temperature dependent. The parameters of the study were the welding sequences, heat input during welding, and the depth of the double-angle connection. It was observed that strain demands due to welding and hot-dip galvanizing were high magnitude at the cracked location in the beam. The relative significance of strain demands due to welding and of hot-dip galvanizing on the propensity for the beam to develop cracks are discussed.

Published: July 2018

Introducción. Durante el embarazo, los niveles séricos de triglicéridos maternos aumentan como un mecanismo de adaptación fisiológica para suplir las necesidades del feto en desarrollo. Pese a que el incremento excesivo se ha asociado a preeclampsia, macrosomía y parto pretérmino, no se han establecido de manera contundente los niveles a partir de los cuales se deben tomar medidas en cada trimestre para prevenir complicaciones.Objetivo. Hacer una revisión sobre fisiopatología, efectos en madre e hijo, valores esperados en cada trimestre e intervenciones terapéuticas en hipertrigliceridemia gestacional.Materiales y métodos. Se realizó una revisión con la búsqueda de artículos en las bases de datos ScienceDirect, PubMed, Scopus, LILACS, Cochrane y SciELO con los términos: Pregnancy; Hypertriglyceridemia; Maternal-Fetal Exchange; Fetal Development; Pregnancy Complications y sus equivalentes en español.Resultados. Se encontraron 59 artículos que cumplieron los criterios de búsqueda y daban respuesta a los objetivos.Conclusiones. El número limitado y la gran variabilidad de los datos indican la necesidad de realizar más investigaciones que establezcan los rangos de normalidad de los triglicéridos durante los tres trimestres del embarazo y así determinar riesgos e intervenciones eficaces antes de la gestación y reducir la morbimortalidad materno-infantil.

Quantifier scope in sentence prosody?
Authors: Surányi Balázs , Turi Gergő 
Published: July 2018

Logical scope interpretation and sentence prosody exhibit intricate, yet scarcely studied interrelations across a variety of languages and constructions. Despite these observable interrelations, it is not clear whether quantifier scope by itself is able to directly affect prosodic form. Information structure is a key potential confounding factor, as it appears to richly interact both with scope interpretation and with prosodic form.To address this complication, the current study investigates, based on data from Hungarian, whether quantifier scope is expressed prosodically if information structure is kept in check. A production experiment is presented that investigates grammatically scope ambiguous doubly quantified sentences with varied focus structures, while lacking a syntactically marked topic or focus. In contrast to the information structural manipulation, which is manifest in the analysis of the acoustic data, the results reveal no prosodic effect of quantifier scope, nor the interaction of scope with information structure. This finding casts doubt on the notion that logical scope can receive direct prosodic expression, and it indirectly corroborates the restrictive view instead that scope interpretation is encoded in prosody only in cases in which it is a free rider on information structure.

AbstractSeparating the impacts of climate change and human activity on actual evapotranspiration (ET) is important for reducing comprehensive risk and improving the adaptability of water resource systems. In this study, the spatiotemporal distribution of actual ET in the Aksu River Basin, Northwest China, during the period 2000–2015 was evaluated using the Vegetation Interfaces Processes model and Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer-Normalized Difference Vegetation Index. The impact of climate change and human activity on actual ET were separated and quantified. The results demonstrated that: (1) the annual pattern of actual ET per pixel exhibited the highest values for arable land (average 362.4 mm/a/pixel), followed by forest land and grassland (average of 159.6 and 142.8 mm/a/pixel, respectively). Significant increasing linear trends (p &lt; 0.05) of 3.2 and 1.8 mm/a were detected in the arable land and forest land time series, respectively; (2) precipitation was the most significant of the selected climate factors (precipitation, average temperature, sunshine duration, and wind speed) for all ecosystems. The second most significant was wind speed; (3) human activity caused 89%, 98%, and 80% of the changes in actual ET of forest, grass, and arable land, respectively, while climate change caused 11%, 2%, and 20% of the changes in actual ET, in the Aksu River Basin during 2000–2015.

Governança global: visões teóricas e pluralidade de atores
Authors: Pizarro Juliano Oliveira , De Moraes Ria Carmen Silvia 
Published: July 2018

A presente pesquisa tem o objetivo de fazer uma análise teórica sobre o movimento da governança global, através do estudo dos principais atores, articulações e mecanismos alternativos. A metodologia utilizada no trabalho foi revisão bibliográfica de abordagem qualitativa. Tevese como critério a utilização de literatura clássica, artigos, estudos contemporâneos sobre a temática. A delimitação temporal da pesquisa se deu a partir da década de 1990, devido à ascensão dos processos de globalização após a guerra fria, da nova ordem multipolar e do recrudescimento do neoliberalismo. Ocorreram assim mudanças nos paradigmas internacionais das relações políticas e econômicas entre atores heterogêneos e plurais Estados nacionais, empresas multinacionais, sociedade civil global, organizações internacionais, blocos regionais.Isso ampliou os cenários e espaços de disputa pelo poder. Essas dinâmicas comportam uma pluralidade de atores públicos e privados que disputam espaço e relacionamse ao mesmo tempo. É nesse cenário de disputa, controle e condução pelo poder que as dinâmicas da governança global são estabelecidas, sem necessariamente um governo mundial constituído e revestido de uma única autoridade. O caráter contraditório e por vezes não explícito da governança global tem apresentado desafios teóricos para qualquer tentativa de entender seu funcionamento e sua evolução.
