Some works on the modeling and analysis of spider orb webs under prey impact are presented as follows. More details can be found in the references. These works consist of my PhD thesis. It is challenging to achieve the end just in one year. Nevertheless, it was fullfilled. Sincere appreciation to my advisor Prof. Hashemi, the best professor that I have ever met.
I had been in USA for 5 years pursing a PhD. During the course, there were inevitably highs and lows. I drifted from the west coast to the east coast, meanwhile a short stay at Pittsburgh. The pale-yellow sunset in Los Angeles, the freezing-cold snow in Pittsburgh, and the viviflying Charles river in Boston were all borne in my mind. These scenes happen to map my feeling and experience in each place. All in all, the fifth year’s life in Boston is the most memoriable.
