Introduction Predicting the remaining bearing capacity of corroded RC members serves as a vital factor to assess the durability and longevity of a reinforced concrete (RC) structure.
Also the theory of limit equilibrium was applied during analysis to yield the final conclusion.According to Higgins and Farrow's[3]research on how the stirrrup corrosion degree under different stirrup ratio affect test beam, they concluded that the check of appearance damage can't be the sufficient condition for distinguishing the structure properties of corroded RC beam,and they also indicated that the conditions of local corrosion of stirrups in different positions had great influence on distinguishing the structure properties of corroded RC beam.Another approach was developed by Zhao and Jin[4], where the previous conclusions on this issue were discussed and evaluated.
By considering the influence of steel bar corrosion on their cross-section and mechanical properties, as well as the reduction of the effective section area of the concrete, a shearing capacity assessment formula of RC beams with corrosion stirrups is proposed based on the shear capacity formula given by the actual Chinese code for the design of concrete structures(GB50010-2002).
After reaching the ultimate shear strength, the stirrups and oblique bars yield , therefore ,, combined with equation (1) , the shear force is present with (5) where is the angel between diagonal crake and horizontal directivity, and is affected by the oblique stress of the concrete .

However, more efficient methods of mechanical structuring of silicon surface affect the prime cost of solar cells.
The investigation of optical properties of obtained textures was performed using a Specord Plus spectrophotometer. 3.
Models of textures were chosen based on the condition of multiple reflection of light within the created textured layers, which would increase antireflective properties of the solar cell surface.
Fig. 4 shows the results of optimization of antireflective properties of obtained textures.

Here parameters as mutation operator (M), crossover constant (CR), differential amplification factor (F), Population Size (PS) and Generations number (G) are evaluated.
Results indicated that the crossover constant (CR) and amplification factor (F) are important parameters for suitable prediction of the effect of degrees of freedom over thermal performance.
In this study, it was showed that one configuration parameter of the method can strongly affect the influence of geometry over thermal performance of the intruded cavity.
Some advantages of this method are the few number of control parameters, adaptability to parallel processes and good convergence properties [17].
In the present work, four different version of DE algorithm was executed with different parameters of mutation (MR), crossover (CR) and amplification factor (F).

At the same time, the temperature increase (depending on different conditions – the magnitude of the fire load, the factors of the microclimate of the room, etc.) sometimes differs from the conditions of the standard mode, so in this work, when studying the process of self-ignition of wood samples, we considered several modes of increasing the temperature over time.
Extractive substances are involved in the formation of coke, affect the formation of smoke.
In order to better study the properties of fire danger of wood, it is necessary to continue testing with other types of hardwood, as well as to study the possibility of reducing the fire danger of wood samples by applying to their surface flame retardants made from available components.

Generally speaking, from the previous critical review, it can be stated that using LRB as a base isolators affects the dynamic response of RC buildings causes a rise in the natural period, roof displacement and a reduction in the roof acceleration, base shear and storey drift ratio.
At the two ends of the columns, the nonlinear hinge properties are assigned (P-M2-M3) hinges, these are based on the concrete compressive strength (fc’=40MPa) and steel yielding stress (fy=400MPa).

Introduction It is well established that high microporosity can result in dramatic deterioration of the mechanical properties, and in particular of fatigue properties.
Because of the complexity of the physics associated with microporosity formation, assessing the hierarchy of the process and material parameters that affect microporosity is not a trivial task.
(10) where A and Ke are the activity and equilibrium coefficient of pores respectively, and 101,325 is a unit transformation factor.
(13) where α is a transition factor from gas and melt mixture to pore, and Ptot is the total melt pressure on the pore calculated with Eq. 1.
The transition factor is evaluated by comparing model predictions with experiments.

F1, F2, F3, and the commercial FGG recorded dropping points higher than 350 °C, indicating no dropping point properties for the tested greases.
The comparison was made to set a benchmark for the formulated FGG in terms of physical properties.
About 1 g of chitosan was added in the subsequent formulation to study the effect of chitosan on the properties of the FGG (F3).
The ability of lubricating grease to bleed oil, often known as “grease bleeding”, is one of the factors used to choose lubricating grease [17].
In conclusion, chitosan can be used as an additive to modify and improve the properties of FGG.
