TL;DR: In this article, the seasonal evolution of total inorganic carbon and CO2 air-sea fluxes in the Eastern North Atlantic Subtropical Gyre (Azores area) was investigated by means of studying a data set from 10 cruises covering a seasonal cycle.

TL;DR: In this article, a series of tests carried out to investigate the behaviour of a number of optimised fiber composite plates of differing geometry, simply supported along two edges and built in along the other two, subject to a varying combination of shear and in-plane bending, for which no theoretical solution exists, assesses the suitability of analytical techniques and finite element analysis to predict this behaviour.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the theoretical basis for both static and dynamic numerical approaches to the elastic stability of a folding multi-layered truss, including geometrical nonlinearity.

TL;DR: In this paper, the concept of energy minimization was proposed for multi-folding of a pantograph structure under dynamic loading, and the critical dynamic and postbuckling effects were explored through a simple model, where the authors considered the large displacement range within which a truss is allowed to be foldable and deployable.

TL;DR: The suitability of using the efficient, linear elastic design software VICONOPT for the analysis of a stiffened panel with a postbuckling reserve of strength is investigated as mentioned in this paper.
