Formulation and evaluation of an analytical model for composite box-beams
Edward C. Smith,Inderjit Chopra +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a direct method for determining the effective elastic stiffnesses and deformation behavior of composite box-beam (BB) structures is developed analytically, validated, and demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Health Wise South Africa: Development of a Life Skills Curriculum for Young Adults
Linda L. Caldwell,Edward C. Smith,Lisa Wegner,Tania Vergnani,Elias Mpofu,Alan J. Flisher,Catherine Mathews +6 more
TL;DR: HealthWise as discussed by the authors is an international collaborative effort that aims to reduce risky behavior (e.g., substance use, risky sexual behavior) that leads to outcomes such as HIV/AIDs, pregnancy, and addictions among a sample of South African youth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrasonic de-icing of wind-tunnel impact icing
TL;DR: In this paper, a steel plate was actuated by three lead zirconate titanate disks excited at their ultrasonic radial mode to create transverse shear stresses that prevented ice formation on top of the actuator locations for a fraction of the power required with electrothermal systems used in helicopter rotor blades.
Journal ArticleDOI
Instantaneous De-Icing of Freezer Ice via Ultrasonic Actuation
TL;DR: In this paper, a low power, nonthermal, ultrasonic de-icing system is introduced as a potential deicing system for helicopter rotor blades, which generates delaminating ultrasonic transverse shear stresses at the interface of accreted ice, debonding thin ice layers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Abnormal Development of the Earliest Cortical Circuits in a Mouse Model of Autism Spectrum Disorder
Daniel A. Nagode,Xiangying Meng,Daniel E. Winkowski,Edward C. Smith,Hamza Khan-Tareen,Vishnupriya Kareddy,Joseph P. Y. Kao,Patrick O. Kanold +7 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that prenatal VPA exposure severely affects the developmental trajectory of cortical circuits and that sensory-driven activity may exacerbate earlier, subtle connectivity deficits.
