An energy absorber device is a device that is capable to convert one form of energy to the plastic deformation or another form of energy. Plastic deformation energy can be converted into several modes of deformation including axial crushing, inversion, splitting, lateral indentation and lateral flattening. The objective of this paper was to investigate the axial splitting and curling behavior of aluminium circular metal tubes which was compressed axially under static loading. An experimental investigation was carried out by using three types of dies with different semi-angles, a which was 45°, 60° and 75°. To ease the splitting process, the tube was introduced with 4 and 6 slits with the length of 5 mm at the leading edge of the tube. The slit prevented the tubes from buckling and estab...

Spend any amount of time with the immensely talented musician and artist and you'll hear him talk himself in and out of at least one circular argument or position, taking both sides with equal amounts of passion and indifference While not directly, he gave a demonstration of it sitting in his studio for a video and photo shoot, among all of the analogue and antiquated recording equipment and plucking on a ukulele, while chatting knowledgeably with the photographer about the technical specifics of the camera being used. In actuality, Diaper Island, Van Gaalen admits, was the fourth attempt at an album, with three aborted others being: a horrible electro record (An embarrassment to everything, he says, and I'm glad people told me); a stripped-down folk recording, which he describes as ju...
On his 2006 Sub Pop debut Below the Branches, San Francisco songwriter and multi-instrumentalist [Kelley Stoltz] showed off his affection for sunshiny '60s California pop; this time around he's shifted his focus slightly, staying in the same decade but channelling British bands like the Beatles and...
According to Michael Kahana at the University of Pennsylvania, the human brain is wired to detect direction, but for some reason, that wiring does not function. Similar wiring in the brains of monkeys, mice, rats and fish successfully accomplishes direction-finding. Some scientists suspect that humans might have had an ancestral ability to navigate through unfamiliar terrain, but have since lost it. The survival value of circular direction of movement in humans has not been extensively studied. Nobody is clear on why such movements are circular, and not some other geometric pattern. It has been speculated that people circle when confronted with unfamiliar surroundings so as to confine their aimless wonderings within a relatively small core area, perhaps increasing the likelihood of even...
