Optimal Design of RC Frames using a Modified Hybrid PSOGSA Algorithm
Archives of Civil Engineering, 2017 The present study has been taken up to emphasize the role of the hybridization process for optimizing a given reinforced concrete (RC) frame. Although various primary techniques have been hybrid in the past with varying degree of success, the effect of ...

Optimum design of SRC composite beams [PDF]
International Journal for Simulation and Multidisciplinary Design Optimization, 2008 Based on experimental study of bond-slip behaviours between steel shape and concrete, an optimal design scheme of single objective and discrete variables is proposed to design steel reinforced concrete (SRC) frame beams.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an established home‐based kidney replacement therapy (KRT), but its uptake remains low in Japan. We evaluated whether individualized education in a dedicated outpatient clinic was associated with the initiation of PD.

The Annals of Mathematical Statistics, 1959 Suppose we are given $N$ objects to be weighed in $N$ weighings with a chemical balance having no bias. Let $x_{ij} = 1$ if the $j$th object is placed in the left pan in the $i$th weighing, $= -1$ if the $j$th object is placed in the right pan in the $i$th weighing, $= 0$ if the $j$th object is not weighed in the $i$th weighing. The $N$th order matrix $

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Electromagnet Weight Reduction in a Magnetic Levitation System for Contactless Delivery Applications
Sensors, 2010 This paper presents an optimum design of a lightweight vehicle levitation electromagnet, which also provides a passive guide force in a magnetic levitation system for contactless delivery applications. The split alignment of C-shaped electromagnets about

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...
