Multi-objective optimization of double curvature arch dams subjected to seismic loading using charged system search [PDF]
This paper presents a multi-objective formulation for optimization of arch dams. The objective is to simultaneously minimize the concrete volume and stress state of the dam body. Instead of a single design, the multi-objective problem provides a set of Pareto solutions in which a decision maker approach can select best answer according to its ...

“Bowstring” Arches in Langer System Without Wind Bracing
Arch bridges are slender structures and can be efficiently used in the range of medium to large spans. These structures have an improved aesthetic aspect and in the same time a low construction height, with obvious advantages regarding reduced costs in ...

Breaking arches with vibrations: the role of defects [PDF]
We present experimental results about the stability of arches against external vibrations. Two dimensional strings of mutually stabilizing grains are geometrically analyzed and subsequently submitted to a periodic forcing at fixed frequency and increasing amplitude.

spGARCH: An R-Package for Spatial and Spatiotemporal ARCH models [PDF]
In this paper, a general overview on spatial and spatiotemporal ARCH models is provided. In particular, we distinguish between three different spatial ARCH-type models. In addition to the original definition of Otto et al. (2016), we introduce an exponential spatial ARCH model in this paper.

Vascular endothelial‐cadherin as a marker of endothelial injury in preclinical Alzheimer disease
Abstract Objective Endothelial dysfunction is an early and prevalent pathology in Alzheimer disease (AD). We here investigate the value of vascular endothelial‐cadherin (VEC) as a cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) marker of endothelial injury in preclinical AD.

ABSTRACT Background In radiotherapy for early‐stage glottic cancer, evaluating the target surface dose at the glottic air–tissue boundary is crucial, as buildup effect can cause underdosing. The accuracy of dose evaluation in the surrounding tissues is affected by both the dose calculation algorithms and the accuracy of the Hounsfield unit values in ...
