COMPARATIVE STUDY AND MULTI-OBJECTIVE CRASHWORTHINESS OPTIMIZATION DESIGN OF FOAM AND HONEYCOMB-FILLED NOVEL ALUMINUM THIN-WALLED TUBES

Comparative Study and Multi-Objective Crashworthiness Optimization Design of Foam and Honeycomb-Filled Novel Aluminum Thin-Walled Tubes

Due to their lightweight, porous and excellent energy absorption characteristics, foam and honeycomb materials have been widely used for filling energy absorbing devices.For further improving the energy absorption performance click here of the novel tube proposed in our recent work, the nonlinear dynamics software Abaqus was firstly used to establi

Investigating clove oil and its derivatives as anaesthetic agents for decapod crustaceans to improve welfare commercially and at slaughter

Decapods have been recently classified as sentient beings in UK policy and therefore the establishment of humane methods for the live transportation and slaughter of commercially valuable shellfish as well as for decapods used in research is critical.Formerly overlooked, the use of anaesthetics provides a promising avenue for improving welfare stan
