Ames, Iowa–An Asteroid Deflection Research Center (ADRC) has been established on the Iowa State campus to bring researchers from around the world to develop asteroid deflection technologies. The ...

In most shafts, bending is the primary source of deflection. However, for short shafts where length is less than 10 times the maximum diameter, deflection due to shear can become significant.

Traditional practice dictates potential deflection of lattice steel towers will not cause structural issues while stringing conductor. However, Los Angeles Department of Water & Power (LADWP) and ...

Our aerospace engineering department strongly supports Professor Bong Wie’s effort in establishing this center to address the engineering and science issues of asteroid deflection.” ...
