Experimental Research on Damping Effect of Double-Layer Tuned Mass Damper for High-Rise Structure
Shock and Vibration, 2021 A double-layer tuned mass damper (DTMD) has advantages of wide damping frequency band and strong robustness. At present, there is a lack of seismic design methods for high-rise structures based on DTMDs.

Retrofitting parallelism onto OCaml [PDF]
Proceedings of the ACM on Programming Languages, 2020 OCaml is an industrial-strength, multi-paradigm programming language, widely used in industry and academia. OCaml is also one of the few modern managed system programming languages to lack support for shared memory parallel programming. This paper describes the design, a full-fledged implementation and evaluation of a mostly-concurrent garbage ...

Europe’s constitutional retrofit [PDF]
Global Constitutionalism, 2023 AbstractThe various and diverse academic responses to the Conference on the Future of Europe’s efforts at democratic renewal, including those by Ben Crum, Markus Patberg and Sandra Seubert, speak not only to the lack of a clear institutional locus or pathway associated with the Conference, but also to differing understandings of the basic conditions of

Retrofitting Fat Metabolism [PDF]
Cell Metabolism, 2009 In this issue of Cell Metabolism, Liao and colleagues have applied a novel synthetic approach to fight obesity in animals by engineering the plant glyoxylate shunt in vivo (Dean et al., 2009). The idea of introducing an entirely foreign metabolic pathway opens up opportunities for understanding metabolism and creating novel potential therapeutic ...

Gravity mediation retrofitted [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2013 Most discussion of metastable dynamical supersymmetry breaking (MDSB) has focussed on low energy breaking, as in gauge mediation. It is of interest to consider possible implications for intermediate scale breaking ("gravity mediation"), especially as the early LHC results suggest the possibility that supersymmetry, if broken at relatively low energies,

Time-averaged single sided ventilation rates and thermal environment in cooling mode for a low energy retrofit envelope [PDF]
, 2014 Non-invasive, scalable, building retrofit solutions are very attractive deep renovation techniques to improve energy efficiency in existing buildings; this includes natural ventilation for cooling due to the low impact nature of the installation. However,
