Self-centering seismic-resistant structures: Historical overview and state-of-the-art
Earthquake spectra, 2021 This state-of-the-art review provides an overview of the evolution of self-centering structures from early historical structures that inherently exhibited a recentering response to modern systems engineered for enhanced seismic resilience. From the early

Self-Centering in Cytoplasmic Fragments of Melanophores [PDF]
Molecular Biology of the Cell, 1998 The radial array of cytoplasmic microtubules (MTs) provides routes for intracellular transport and defines spatial organization of cytoplasm through interaction with molecular motors bound to membrane organelles (Kellogg et al., 1994 ; Hirokawa, 1998 ). The array is believed to be organized by the centrosome, which is capable of nucleating MTs.

Mechanical Behaviors of a Buckling-Plate Self-Centering Friction Damper
Buildings, 2023 In order to improve the resilience of structures subjected to strong earthquakes, a buckling-plate self-centering friction damper (BPSCFD) with low post-yielding stiffness is proposed, which consists of a group of post-buckling plates and a self ...

A characterization for 2-self-centered graphs
Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2018 A Graph is called 2-self-centered if its diameter and radius both equal to 2. In this paper, we begin characterizing these graphs by characterizing edge-maximal 2-self-centered graphs via their complements. Then we split characterizing edge-minimal 2-self-centered graphs into two cases. First, we characterize edge-minimal 2-self-centered graphs without
