Closed-form optimal design of passive switching dampers for stay cables

Near-anchor linear viscous dampers for stay cables are constrained by the small local motion available for energy dissipation. This study proposes a passive switching damper that mechanically alternates between high- and low-damping states according to motion direction, without s...

Supplementation with Agrobacterium sp. FN01-Derived Crude Product Dominated by L-β-Galactoglucan Enhances Growth Performance and Nutrient Utilization and Modulates Intestinal Microbiota in Pigs

Polysaccharides are well known for their immunomodulatory properties and gut microbiota-regulating functions; however, their digestive stability and structure-dependent biological mechanisms remain poorly understood. This study investigated the in vitro enzymatic resistance and i...
