Farmers’ Awareness of Bean Ascochyta Blight and Evaluation of Constraints of Bean Production in Rwanda.
Abstract: The awareness and perceptions of ascochyta blight by farmers is an important factor that affects the type of bean genotype adopted. Although farmers in Rwanda prefer large-seeded bean genotypes both for consumption and for market, these genotypes are susceptible to ascochyta blight. It was observed that farmers are abandoning large-seeded bean genotypes in preference for smaller seeded genotypes which seem to be more resistant. Therefore, the objective of this study …

STRUCTURAL BEHAVIOR OF FLEXIBLE AND SEMI-RIGID BEAM-COLUMN JOINT CONNECTIONS BY FEM
Abstract: This study investigates the structural behavior of flexible and semi-rigid beam-column joint connections in cold-formed steel (CFS) structures, focusing on the use of Finite Element Modeling (FEM) to simulate their performance under various loading conditions. Traditional analysis methods often oversimplify beam-column connections, treating them as either perfectly rigid or fully flexible, which does not accurately capture real-world joint behavior. In reality, many beam-column joints exhibit semi-rigid characteristics, where the stiffness …
