Response Modification Factor of RC Frames Strengthened with RC Haunches
This paper presents experimental and numerical studies carried out on two-story reinforced concrete (RC) frames having weaker beam-column joints, which were retrofitted with reinforced concrete haunches to avoid joint panel damage under seismic actions ...

Impact of surface phenomena on direct bulk flexoelectric effect in finite samples
In the framework of a continuum theory, it is shown that the direct flexoelectric response of a finite sample essentially depends on the surface polarization energy, even in the thermodynamic limit where the body size tends to infinity.

Effect of nucleon structure variation on the longitudinal response function [PDF]
Using the quark-meson coupling (QMC) model, we study the longitudinal response function for quasielastic electron scattering from nuclear matter. In QMC the coupling constant between the scalar ($\sigma$) meson and the nucleon is expected to decrease ...

Effect of Soil Buffer Capacity on Soil Reaction (pH) Modification and Subsequent Effects on Growth and Nutrient Uptake of Plantanus occidentalis L. Seedlings [PDF]
The buffer capacity of a soil is a significant factor in determining the longevity of soil reaction (pH) adjustments by aluminum sulfate, Al2(SO4)3, or calcium carbonate, CaCO₂. After 12 weeks the modified pH values of the highly buffered Emory silt loam

The Effect of Easy-Going Steel on KBF's Seismic Behavior [PDF]
The knee bracing steel frame (KBF) is a new type of energy dissipating frame which enjoys exceptional ductility and lateral stiffness. Rather than the beam-column joint, one end of the diagonal brace in KBF is attached to the knee element.

Fluctuation-Dissipation relations in Driven Granular Gases
We study the dynamics of a 2d driven inelastic gas, by means of Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) techniques, i.e. under the assumption of Molecular Chaos.
