Impact of structural eurocodes on steel and composite structures by Jin, Y. F., Cai, Y. Q., Chiew, Sing Ping, Lee, Chi King

“…It is found that the flexural buckling resistance, web bearing and buckling resistance and lateral-torsional buckling resistance determined from Eurocodes 3 and 4 are much larger than those from BS5950. However, for shear buckling resistance of plated structures, Eurocode 3 produced a lower value compared to BS5950, and for shear resistance of headed stud, Eurocode 4 produced a lower value compared to BS5950-3.1.…”

Interns or workers? China's student labor regime by Chan, J, Pun, N, Selden, M

“…Based on fieldwork in Sichuan and Guangdong between 2011 and 2012 and follow-up interviews in 2014, as well as analysis of the Henan government's policies on internships, we find that the student labor regime has become integral to the capital-state relationship as a means to assure a lower cost and flexible labor supply for Foxconn and others. …”

Application of long gauge sensors on RC structures by Yong, Jun Jordan

“…Various types of sensors are utilized, including Linear Variable Differential Transformers (LVDTs), point gauges, and long gauge sensors (LGS). By applying gradual shear loads and monitoring subsequent responses, our goal is to ascertain the extent of shear stress under varying loading circumstances. …”

Customized glass sealant for ceramic substrates for high temperature electronic application by Sharif, Ahmed, Gan, Chee Lip, Chen, Zhong

“…This study investigates the ceramic to ceramic bonding, using composite glass frit as the binding layer that is able to tolerate a high temperature environment for ruggedized microelectronic applications. Shear strength measurements were carried out at both room and high temperature (i.e. 250 °C) to evaluate room and high temperature performance of the joints. …”
