Simple determination of the axial stiffness for largediameter independent wire rope core or fibre core wire ropes
Raoof and Kraincanic recently developed two somewhat different theoretical models for analysing large-diameter wire ropes with either an independent wire rope core (IWRC) or a fibre core. Most…

Static, dynamic and fatigue characteristics of helical cables
Extensive parametric studies have been carried out, using the orthotropic sheet theoretical model of Hobbs and Raoof, on a wide range of spiral strand constructions, with outside diameters, d, and…

The importance of, and the benefits derived from, forward dental peripatetic clinics in Afghanistan
TLDR
The results of this review demonstrate that peripatetic clinics in Afghanistan save considerable mission time, reduce risk to military personnel, and were greatly valued by those suffering dental problems.

Determination of the bending stiffness for a spiral strand
Owing to their peculiar construction, axially preloaded spiral strands undergo plane-section bending only for sufficiently small maximum lateral deflection/span ratios. Beyond a certain limit of this…

End fixity to spiral strands undergoing cyclic bending
Based on a semi-empirical approach and guided by the previously reported experimental observations and theoretical work by the first author, it is suggested that for spiral strands with mean axial…

Low-discrepancy sequences for volume properties in solid modelling
TLDR
This paper investigates the use of low-discrepancy sequences for computing volume integrals in geometric modelling with practical results given for a series of test objects which clearly demonstrate the superiority of the low- Discrepancy method.
Computing Volume Properties Using Low-Discrepancy Sequences
TLDR
The relative advantages of using low- Discrepancy methods compared to random point sequences are discussed theoretically, and practical results are given for a series of test objects which clearly demonstrate the superiority of the low-discrepancy method when used in a simple approach.
