A Method to Identify the Critical Seismic Input for Curved Bridges

CivilEng, 2023
To address the rapidly growing demands of traffic congestion, more highway bridges have been constructed, especially curved bridges. With more curved bridges designed and constructed, people have conducted a comprehensive analysis of the structural ...

The Effects of Population Size Histories on Estimates of Selection Coefficients from Time-Series Genetic Data. [PDF]

, 2016
Many approaches have been developed for inferring selection coefficients from time series data while accounting for genetic drift. These approaches have been motivated by the intuition that properly accounting for the population size history can ...

Seismic Pounding between Three Adjacent RC Buildings Considering Soil-Structure Interaction [PDF]

JES: Journal of Engineering Sciences
In highly populated cities, the close spacing of buildings often results in interaction effects, including structure–soil–structure interaction (SSSI) and seismic pounding (SP), which occur because of the limited gaps left between adjacent structures. In

Optimization of TFRC loss history initialization [PDF]

, 2007
This letter deals with the initialization of the loss history structure in the TFRC (TCP-Friendly Rate Control) mechanism. This initialization occurs after the detection of the first loss event after every slowstart phase.

Laser-induced thermal acoustics (LITA) signals from finite beams [PDF]

, 1995
Laser-induced thermal acoustics (LITA) is a four-wave mixing technique that may be employed to measure sound speeds, transport properties, velocities, and susceptibilities of fluids. It is particularly effective in high-pressure gases (>1 bar).

Time-history analysis method for soil-underground structure system based on equivalent linear method

Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2018
Site seismic analysis plays an important role in the practical seismic design of underground structures, and the equivalent linear method is a widely-used approach for the seismic response analysis of one-dimensional soil layer.

A Bayesian Account of Quantum Histories

, 2005
We investigate whether quantum history theories can be consistent with Bayesian reasoning and whether such an analysis helps clarify the interpretation of such theories.

The Star Formation History of the Large Magellanic Cloud [PDF]

, 2009
We present the first-ever global, spatially-resolved reconstruction of the star formation history (SFH) of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), based on the application of our StarFISH analysis software to the multiband photometry of twenty million of its ...

Seismic Isolation Performance of Nuclear Power Plant Containment Structures

Buildings
Non-isolated structures have strong destructive effects and poor isolation effects when encountering earthquakes. Setting isolation bearings can prolong the natural vibration period of the structure, reduce the horizontal seismic response of the ...
