TL;DR: A curtain having an integral tie-back arrangement includes a piece of flexible material, part of which is fixed to the curtain for providing a channel from one of its vertical edges to the other of its Vertical edges.
Abstract: A curtain having an integral tie-back arrangement includes a piece of flexible material, part of which is fixed to the curtain for providing a channel from one of its vertical edges to the other of its vertical edges. An elongated flexible member which extends through the channel is fixed at one end to one of the vertical edges. As a result, if the free end of the elongated flexible member is pulled, the curtain is shirred along its width. The flexible material supports a device having a circular loop and an S-shaped section to which the elongated flexible member may be frictionally tied so as to support the shirred curtain. After the curtain is hung, the loop may be coupled to a nail on its window, thereby supporting the tie-back arrangement.

TL;DR: A review of the state-of-the-art in this field can be found in this article, highlighting the key areas of development, including the modelling of the soil media and various analytical as well as numerical approaches in analysing the interaction action between the foundation and soil.
Abstract: The interaction action between structures and supporting soil media is of fundamental importance in foundation design and it has always attracted the attention of both researchers and engineers. This paper reviews the state-of-the-art in this field, highlighting the key areas of development, including the modelling of the soil media and various analytical as well as numerical approaches in analysing the interaction action between the foundation and soil.

TL;DR: This work imagines two kinds of devices allowing us to deduce the size of the raindrop from impact forces, considering natural parameters such as drop radius and density, impact speed and response time of the substrate.
Abstract: Drop impacts are difficult to characterize due to their transient, non-stationary nature. We discuss the force generated during such impacts, a key quantity for animals, plants, roofs or soil erosion. Although a millimetric drop has a modest weight, it can generate collision forces on the order of thousand times this weight. We measure and discuss this amplification, considering natural parameters such as drop radius and density, impact speed and response time of the substrate. We finally imagine two kinds of devices allowing us to deduce the size of the raindrop from impact forces.
