This paper proposes a model for analysing the non-linear behaviour of steel concrete composite beams prestressed by external slipping cables, taking into account the deformability of the interface shear connection. By assuming a suitable admissible displacement field for the composite beam, the balance condition is obtained by the virtual work principle. The solution is numerically achieved by approximating the unknown displacement functions as series of shape functions according to the Ritz method. The model is applied to real cases by showing the consequences of different connection levels between the concrete slab and the steel beam. Particular attention is focused on the limited ductility of the shear connection that may be the cause of premature failure of the composite girder.

In this paper, we study lightlike submanifolds of a semi-Riemannian manifold admitting a semi-symmetric non-metric connection. We obtain a necessary and a sufficient condition for integrability of the screen distribution. Then we give the conditions under which the Ricci tensor of a lightlike submanifold with a semi-symmetric non-metric connection is symmetric. Finally, we show that the Ricci tensor of a lightlike submanifold of semi-Riemannian space form is not parallel with respect to the semi-symmetric non-metric connection.

The crimping connection is a permanent connection that maintains mechanical and electrical property for a long time by crimping two conductors. In this paper, we have done a basic study to decide normal or abnormal condition depending on crimping. Using PZT piezo-sensor, we have analyzed crimping waveforms according to the crimping height. And hence the normal or abnormal condition of crimping connections in real time could be decided by comparison of crimping waveforms in the cases of normal crimping, over crimping, under crimping and core omitting.

Considering that the output voltage and current of a single PV panel are limited in PV power generation, a PV array should be constructed by connecting several PV panels in series and parallel to meet the required voltage/power levels for power generation capacity. When a PV array is partially shaded, the maximum power generation depends on the configuration of a PV array and the presence or absence of blocking diodes. This study considers six PV array configurations and the presence or absence of blocking diodes. An optimum connection structure was proposed to maximize power generation in a partial shadow condition. Results were verified through simulation and an experiment.

This paper analyzes the operation characteristics of a self excited induction generator with Steinmetz connection. For this analysis, the symmetrical components analysis is used to obtain the related expressions and the excitation capacitance and the magnetizing reactance are determined in turn by the condition of self excitation which includes the input impedance of the generator as viewed across load terminals. Two simultaneous equations of the condition of self excitation itself are solved by using the real and imaginary function in an application software. This method is applied to simulate the operation characteristics when the generator is driven at rated speed and the specified excitation capacitor is connected across the lagging phase. The results show that better operation characteristics except generated frequency are obtained by using relatively large excitation capacitance and resistive load.

Let G and H be compact connected Lie groups with biinvariant Riemannian metrics g and h respectively, ${\phi}$ a group isomorphism of G onto H, and $E:={\phi}^{-1}TH$ the induced bundle by $\phi$ over the base manifold G of the tangent bundle TH of H. Let ${\nabla}$ and $^H{\nabla}$ be the Levi-Civita connections for the metrics g and h respectively, $\tilde{\nabla}$ the induced connection by the map ${\phi}$ and $^H{\nabla}$. Then, a necessary and sufficient condition for $\tilde{\nabla}$ in the bundle (${\phi}^{-1}TH$, G, ${\pi}$) to be a Yang- Mills connection is the fact that the Levi-Civita connection ${\nabla}$ in the tangent bundle over (G, g) is a Yang- Mills connection. As an application, we get the following: Let ${\psi}$ be an automorphism of a compact connected semisimple Lie group G with the canonical metric g (the metric which is induced by the Killing form of the Lie algebra of G), ${\nabla}$ the Levi-Civita connection for g. Then, the induced connection $\tilde{\nabla}$, by ${\psi}$ and ${\nabla}$, is a Yang-Mills connection in the bundle (${\phi}^{-1}TH$, G, ${\pi}$) over the base manifold (G, g).

A generalized even-dimensional Riemannian manifold defined by the ME-connection which is both Einstein and of the form (3.3) is called an even-dimensional ME-manifold and we denote it by $MEX_{2n}$. The purpose of this paper is to study a necessary and sufficient condition that there is an ME-connection, to derive the useful properties of some tensors, and to investigate a representation of the ME-vector in $MEX_{2n}$.

Three component velocity measurements with a refractive index-matching technique was used to investigate the flow characteristics in the atrio-pulmomnary (AP) Fontan connection under the steady flow condition. A strong swirl was observed in the extra-cardiac conduit and the main pulmonary artery (MPA). Maximum velocity magnitude in the MPA was about 0.8 m/s near the posterior wall at 6 liter/min. Swirling motion of the flow as well as geometric abnormalities of the connection are important factors in energy loss across Fontan connections.

We give analogous criterion to admit a real parabolic connection on real parabolic bundles over a real curve. As an application of this criterion, if real curve has a real point, then we proved that a real vector bundle E of rank r and degree d with gcd(r, d) = 1 is real indecomposable if and only if it admits a real logarithmic connection singular exactly over one point with residue given as multiplication by $-\frac{d}{r}$. We also give an equivalent condition for real indecomposable vector bundle in the case when real curve has no real points.
