Cyclic Behavior of Square CFST Columns-Based Joint
Advances in Civil Engineering, 2023 This paper investigates the cyclic behavior of six square concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) columns that take the effect of width–thickness ratio (D/t = 30, 40, and 60), slenderness ratio (λ = 19.63 and 24.25), and axial force ratio (n = 0.6, 0.4, and 0 ...

Hybrid Quantum-Classical Algorithms and Quantum Error Mitigation [PDF]
Journal of the Physical Society of Japan, 2020 Quantum computers can exploit a Hilbert space whose dimension increases exponentially with the number of qubits. In experiment, quantum supremacy has recently been achieved by the Google team by using a noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) device with
