A co-rotational updated Lagrangian formulation for a 2D beam element with consideration of the deformed curvature
A tensor-based updated Lagrangian (UL) formulation for the geometrically nonlinear analysis of 2D beam-column structures is developed by using curvilinear coordinates, which has considered the effects of the d...

Manganese removal from the Qiantang River source water by pre-oxidation: A case study
We evaluated several different pre-oxidation treatments, namely the introduction of either potassium permanganate (KMnO4), chlorine (Cl2), or both to remove manganese (Mn) from the Qiantang River source water. Ou...
