CONCRETE FILLED TUBULAR BRACING SUBJECTED TO CYCLIC LOADING

Concrete Filled Tubular Bracing Subjected to Cyclic Loading

The energy absorption of concrete filled, hollow-steel bracing was analyzed respect to geometric and mechanical parameters including the width-to-thickness section ratio, slenderness level, and strength of the steel and concrete.Local buckling and ductility were also investigated with respect to variation in the cross-section.The infill increased t

Photoinhibition-like damage to the photosynthetic apparatus in plant leaves induced by submergence treatment in the dark.

Submergence is a common type of environmental stress for plants.It hampers survival and decreases crop yield, mainly by inhibiting plant photosynthesis.The inhibition of photosynthesis and photochemical efficiency by submergence is primarily due to leaf activecare spitfire senescence and excess excitation energy, caused by signals from hypoxic root
