Optimal Design and Distribution of Viscous Dampers for Shear Building Structures Under Seismic Excitations

Frontiers in Built Environment, 2019
Viscous dampers (VDs) are effective and widely used passive devices for the protection of civil structures, provided that appropriate design is carried out. For this purpose, optimal design and optimum distribution of VDs method are presented for a shear

Critical Behavior in Light Nuclear Systems: Experimental Aspects [PDF]

, 2004
An extensive experimental survey of the features of the disassembly of a small quasi-projectile system with $A \sim$ 36, produced in the reactions of 47 MeV/nucleon $^{40}$Ar + $^{27}$Al, $^{48}$Ti and $^{58}$Ni, has been carried out.

Critical Response of Nonlinear Base-Isolated Building Considering Soil-Structure Interaction Under Double Impulse as Substitute for Near-Fault Ground Motion

Frontiers in Built Environment, 2018
The critical nonlinear response considering soil-structure interaction is investigated for a base-isolated building under a double impulse as a substitute for near-fault earthquake ground motions.

Collapse-Limit Input Level of Critical Double Impulse for Damped Bilinear Hysteretic SDOF System With Negative Post-yield Stiffness

Frontiers in Built Environment, 2019
The collapse-limit input velocity level of the critical double impulse simulating the principal part of near-fault ground motions is derived for an elastic-plastic structure with viscous damping and P-delta effect.

Critical Response of Single-Degree-of-Freedom Damped Bilinear Hysteretic System under Double Impulse As Substitute for Near-Fault Ground Motion

Frontiers in Built Environment, 2018
A double impulse input is used as a substitute for near-fault earthquake ground motions. An explicit expression is derived on the maximum elastic–plastic response of a single-degree-of-freedom damped structure with bilinear hysteresis under the “critical

Critical properties of quantum three- and four-state Potts models with boundaries polarized along the transverse field

SciPost Physics Core, 2022
By computing the low-lying energy excitation spectra with the density matrix renormalization group algorithm we show that boundaries polarized in the direction of the transverse field lead to scale-invariant conformal towers of states at the critical ...

Caloric curves and critical behavior in nuclei [PDF]

, 2001
Data from a number of different experimental measurements have been used to construct caloric curves for five different regions of nuclear mass. These curves are qualitatively similar and exhibit plateaus at the higher excitation energies.

High pressure effects on the excitation spectra and dipole properties of Li, Be+, and B2+ atoms under confinement

Matter and Radiation at Extremes, 2020
Properties of atoms and molecules undergo significant changes when subjected to spatial confinement. We study the excitation spectra of lithium-like atoms in the initial 1s22s electronic configuration when confined by an impenetrable spherical cavity. We
