Improved 3-D frequency-selective structures and their applications by Ahmed Abdelmottaleb Abdelfattah Attia Omar

“…ABSTRACT Frequency-selective surfaces are 2-D infinite arrays that act as a filter for the incident electromagnetic waves. They have been used in hybrid radomes, dichroic main reflector, sub-reflector, microwave absorbers, absorptive frequency-selective surfaces, high impedance surfaces, and many other applications. …”

Static elastic properties of composite materials containing microspheres by Jones, GW

“…To motivate the analysis we consider the paradigm problem of the debonding of a distribution of cylindrical inclusions in an elastic material undergoing antiplane shear, with bonded and debonded inclusions playing the role of unbuckled and buckled shells respectively. …”

What are the intensities and line-shapes of the twenty four polarization terms in coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy? by Niu, Kai, Lee, Soo-Ying

“…Coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy (CARS) is conventionally described by just one diagram/term where the three electric field interactions act on the ket side in a Feynman dual time-line diagram in a specific time order of pump, Stokes and probe pulses. …”

Experimental studies on the behaviour of non_seismically detailed reinforced concrete column by Lim, Marvin Wei Sheng.

“…Post earthquake and experimental research have shown that old reinforced concrete structures which are designed based on non-seismic details are vulnerable to shear failure during earthquakes. Shear failure can lead to a reduction in building lateral strength, change in inelastic deformation mechanism and loss of axial load-carrying capacity. …”
