Yet this professed ideological pluralism was eclipsed by an underlying allegiance to the United States' anti ...

The hysteretic energy (EH) dissipated in posttensioned steel frames (PTSF) with hysteretic dampers is calculated by using equivalent single‐degree‐of‐freedom systems (ESDOFS), where the nonlinearity of both the steel bars (beam and columns) and the connections of the structural frame is separately considered.

Reduction of Maximum and Residual Drifts on Posttensioned Steel Frames with Semirigid Connections
The aim of this paper is to study the seismic performance of self‐centering moment‐resisting steel frames with posttensioned connections taking into account nonlinear material behavior, for better understanding of the advantages of this type of structural system.

TEACHING SPANISH IN THE UNIVERSAL MONARCHY: TOMÁS PINPIN'S GRAMMAR FOR TAGALOGS (1610)

Mexico's Dirty War: A Reassessment
Recent scholarship has found that Mexico's dirty war was rooted in existing, but also limited, violent practices established during the 1940s and 1950s.
