The Effect of Drought on Stomatal Conductance in the Biosphere 2Justin Gay
This study examined the effect of drought on stomatal conductance in three plant species in the Biosphere 2 rainforest: Clitoria racemosa, Hibiscus elatus, and Cissus sicyoides. A 4-week drought was imposed and transpiration rates were measured weekly at three canopy heights for each species. Results showed that H. elatus had the largest decrease in transpiration during drought and was the only species to lose leaves. C. racemosa was more resistant to short-term water stress. Transpiration rates varied between species and canopy levels in response to drought, with the upper canopy level showing the strongest correlations.
Biosphere 2 was a 3.15 acre experimental enclosed ecosystem in Oracle, Arizona built by Space Biosphere Ventures in 1987 to study interactions within a closed system and test the viability of space colonization. Over 3 years, 8 people lived inside Biosphere 2 with different biomes like a rainforest, ocean, and desert to study the balance of gases, water, and nutrients without external resources. However, the experiment ultimately failed both environmentally and socially as the closed system faced instability and the inhabitants struggled under the pressures of living in isolation.

The document provides information about space frames. It discusses that a space frame is a truss-like, lightweight rigid structure constructed from interlocking struts in a geometric pattern. Space frames can span large areas with few interior supports because they are strong due to the inherent rigidity of triangles and how loads are distributed as tension and compression along struts. The document outlines different types of space frame configurations based on curvature and number of grid layers, and discusses their properties, design, construction, and historical development.
The document discusses different types of roof structures including pitched roofs, flat roofs, space frames, roof shells, folded plate roofs, and membrane roofs. It provides details on components, materials, advantages and disadvantages of pitched and flat roofs. It also describes new concepts like the profiled steel sheet dry board (PSSDB) roof system which combines profiled steel sheeting and dryboard panels for construction.
Space frames are three-dimensional structures composed of interconnected linear elements that transfer loads through a grid-like network. They are designed without intermediate columns, creating large open interior spaces. Space frames come in various types including two-way and three-way grids, and can be single, double, or triple-layered. They consist of tubular members and specialized connectors, such as tuball nodes, nodus connectors, and triodetic connectors. Space frames are light, economical, stiff structures that allow freedom in building design and easy integration of services. Examples include the San Siro Stadium in Milan and Stansted Airport in London.
Space frames are truss-like, lightweight rigid structures constructed from interlocking struts arranged in a geometric pattern. They were independently developed in the early 1900s and 1950s to span large areas with few interior supports. Space frames transfer loads through a three-dimensional arrangement of linear elements subjected only to axial tension or compression. Common materials used include steel and timber. Connections are made through various joint types, and space frames can be single, double or triple layered grids. They provide advantages like light weight, stiffness and versatility compared to other structures.

BTS 2016 - Composite SCL - Jiang Su_rev0.6Jiang Su
Utilising composite action to achieve lining thickness efficiency for sprayed concrete lined (SCL) tunnels.
The presentation discusses using composite action in SCL tunnels, where a primary lining is bonded to a secondary lining via a sprayed waterproofing membrane. Current design only considers the linings separately, but composite action allows load sharing and reduced thickness. The study uses numerical modeling to evaluate lining efficiency as the secondary lining thickness decreases from 300mm to 50mm. Results show the interface can withstand stresses and one-pass SCL is structurally possible, allowing more efficient tunnel design with thinner secondary linings. Further testing is needed to confirm long-term membrane behavior.
Structural Behaviors of Reinforced Concrete Dome with Shell System under Vari...ijtsrd
There are many different systems constructing dome structure. Among them, the shell system is the most popular in reinforcement concrete structure in these days. Therefore, it is necessary to know the structural behaviours of it. The objectives of this journal is to study the structural behaviours of the reinforced concrete dome structure with shell system under gravity loading and lateral loading in cyclone wind categories and various seismic zones. Seismic loads are considered from zone 1 to zone 4 based on UBC 1997 .Wind loads are considered from I to V category as cyclone categories. Structural elements of RC dome structure are designed according to Building Code of American Concrete Institute ACI 318 99 . With these member forces obtained from the SAP 2000 analysis, the design for all structural members will be performed according to ACI 318 99. The members of dome structure are designed as an intermediate moment resisting frame. The design of the shell beams is verified by using hand calculations with the output forces under the gravity loading and lateral loading obtained from the SAP2000 analysis. Equivalent static analysis procedure is used in this study. Based on the comparison of analysis results, it can be observed where the maximum deflection occurs along the meridian direction under seismic and wind loading conditions. Then, the axial force of dome structure is significant than any other forces in shell system. From the study of analysis results of both systems, it has been noticed that the bottom ring in shell system is essential to control the forces from the shell area.

Dynamic analysis of steel tube structure with bracing systemseSAT Journals
Abstract Nowadays, competition towards rise of tall steel structures made certain factors are compulsory like serviceability and comfort of human relating to lateral loads caused by wind or earthquake. Earthquake is dangerous to the living beings in terms of its effects on manmade structures. Structures like tall buildings are built to resist gravity loads. However many tall buildings are not so resistant in lateral loads due to earthquake so need an improvement in resisting lateral loads. So there are many structural systems which resist lateral loads by varying orientation, addition of different structural systems. Like steel tubular structural system is considered and compared for their results against lateral forces and also by providing mega bracing system and diagrid bracing system. In this dissertation work, four structural systems are considered in which one is framed structure and rest are tubular system with addition of different bracing systems as mega bracing and diagrid bracing system. For the purpose 45 storey steel structure with rectangular plan of dimension 44mx24m uniform throughout the height is considered and analyzed for gravity and lateral loads using ETABS software. Its intention is to obtain the functioning characteristics like displacements, storey shear, time period, frequency, peak displacement and peak acceleration in both x and y direction to get most economical structure in all ways. Results shows that the steel tubular structure with mega bracing system performance is much better than the framed structure, tubular and tubular structure with diagrid bracing system. Keywords: Steel Tube Structure, Mega Bracing, Diagrid Bracing, Dynamic Analysis, ETABS, Time and History Analysis.
A THEORETICAL STUDY ON COLLAPSE MECHANISM AND STRUCTURAL BEHAVIOR OF MULTI-ST...nhandoan10
This document presents a theoretical study on the collapse mechanism and structural behavior of multi-story reinforced concrete (RC) frames subjected to earthquake loading. A nonlinear finite element analysis was utilized to investigate the behavior and collapse mechanism. Plastic hinges were assumed to occur when steel yields or concrete reaches ultimate strength. The behavior of RC frames was investigated focusing on propagation of plastic hinges with varying numbers of stories, concrete grades, and reinforcement ratios, under three earthquake motions. Parameters like member rotations, hinge formation times, maximum shear and displacements were examined.

1) Modern steel reinforcement has a smaller strength-to-yield ratio than reinforcement used in 1970s guidelines, which was predicted to decrease rotation capacity of reinforced concrete structures.
2) Experimental testing found that under static loading, reinforcement with a yield plateau (mild steel) absorbed more energy through distributed plasticity, while steel without a yield plateau (stiff steel) formed a localized plastic hinge.
3) Under dynamic loading from drop tests, both mild and stiff steel reinforcement showed similar, localized plastic straining, unlike under static loading. Inertia forces during dynamic loading likely caused a different moment distribution compared to static loading.
This document presents a case study on the failure analysis of prestressed steel cables used in a suspension bridge. The key points are:
1) The study characterized the material properties, microstructure, and fracture surfaces of damaged cables through various tests.
2) Fatigue testing was conducted to simulate the static load of the bridge and obtain stress-strain curves.
3) Fractographic analysis through SEM revealed ductile failures and intergranular cracking in some wires.
4) The main cause of cable failure, which led to bridge collapse, was determined to be stress corrosion cracking.
The document provides details about the Tokyo Sky Tree project, including:
- It is a 634m tall broadcasting tower and restaurant in Sumida, Tokyo, built over 4 years at a cost of $800 million.
- The soil at the site is silt, so a reinforced concrete wall pile foundation was used, with knuckle walls and piles driven 35m into the ground, to withstand earthquakes up to magnitude 7.3.
- Vibration control systems include two tuned mass dampers installed at 620m and 625m heights, as well as a core column with oil dampers above 375m, to suppress motions from wind.
This paper involves an experimental investigation on the flexural behaviour of curved beams and comparison of its results with conventional beams. Curved beams of size 1200 x 150 x 100 mm with varying initial curvature as 4000mm, 2000mm and the concrete strength as M40 is considered. Various reinforcement are provided in the curved beams to predict which reinforcement detail would give more resistant over maximum loading. The material properties of cement, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate and the compressive strength of concrete cube were found out. A total of 12 specimens of curved beams were casted with various combination of reinforcement along with three control specimens. The beams are tested under two point loading both horizontally and vertically. The deflection and maximum moment carrying capacity are investigated to understand its strength. Also analytical modelling is done to determine the ultimate moment carrying capacity using Finite Element Software ABAQUS to compare with the experimental model.
The document discusses different bracing systems for steel lattice towers and identifies the optimal bracing system. It analyzes towers of heights 40m and 50m with different bracing configurations including X-B, single diagonal, X-X, K, and Y bracings. The towers are modeled and analyzed for wind loads. Results show that the Y bracing system has the lowest weight and is most economical for resisting lateral loads for towers up to 50m height. Therefore, the study identifies the Y bracing system as the optimal bracing configuration for this height range of towers.
The document describes the design and analysis of a mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) retaining wall in Kottayam, India. Key points:

- External stability was checked for sliding, bearing capacity, and overturning. Internal stability was checked for reinforcement tension.
- 10 layers of geogrid reinforcement with a tensile strength of 150 kN/m were selected with a vertical spacing of 0.8m.
- External and internal stability checks confirmed the wall design was safe and satisfied safety factors of at least 1.5.

Rainfall intensity duration frequency curve statistical analysis and modeling...bijceesjournal
Using data from 41 years in Patna’ India’ the study’s goal is to analyze the trends of how often it rains on a weekly, seasonal, and annual basis (1981−2020). First, utilizing the intensity-duration-frequency (IDF) curve and the relationship by statistically analyzing rainfall’ the historical rainfall data set for Patna’ India’ during a 41 year period (1981−2020), was evaluated for its quality. Changes in the hydrologic cycle as a result of increased greenhouse gas emissions are expected to induce variations in the intensity, length, and frequency of precipitation events. One strategy to lessen vulnerability is to quantify probable changes and adapt to them. Techniques such as log-normal, normal, and Gumbel are used (EV-I). Distributions were created with durations of 1, 2, 3, 6, and 24 h and return times of 2, 5, 10, 25, and 100 years. There were also mathematical correlations discovered between rainfall and recurrence interval.
Findings: Based on findings, the Gumbel approach produced the highest intensity values, whereas the other approaches produced values that were close to each other. The data indicates that 461.9 mm of rain fell during the monsoon season’s 301st week. However, it was found that the 29th week had the greatest average rainfall, 92.6 mm. With 952.6 mm on average, the monsoon season saw the highest rainfall. Calculations revealed that the yearly rainfall averaged 1171.1 mm. Using Weibull’s method, the study was subsequently expanded to examine rainfall distribution at different recurrence intervals of 2, 5, 10, and 25 years. Rainfall and recurrence interval mathematical correlations were also developed. Further regression analysis revealed that short wave irrigation, wind direction, wind speed, pressure, relative humidity, and temperature all had a substantial influence on rainfall.
Originality and value: The results of the rainfall IDF curves can provide useful information to policymakers in making appropriate decisions in managing and minimizing floods in the study area.
