DISCUSSION. LINEAR ANALYSIS OF COMPLETE STRUCTURES BY COMPUTERS

non-linear study of various slit shear walls in steel structures

seismic retrofit strategies have been developed in the past few decades following the introduction of new seismic provisions and the availability of advanced materials and methods. it can be observed that new approaches to deal with more lateral forces are more innovative and more energy absorbent. in line with this, there is a growing trend toward the use of steel shear walls as a system with ...

the role of task-based techniques on the acquisition of english language structures by the intermediate efl students

this study examines the effetivenss of task-based activities in helping students learn english language structures for a better communication. initially, a michigan test was administered to the two groups of 52 students majoring in english at the allameh ghotb -e- ravandi university to ensure their homogeneity. the students scores on the grammar part of this test were also regarded as their pre...

Teaching Linear Circuit Analysis Techniques with Computers

We describe recent progress in the development of a step-based computer-based tutoring system to aid in the teaching of introductory linear circuit analysis courses, and preliminary assessment of its effect on student learning in a controlled trial. The system is based on a software engine that can generate problems with random circuit topologies of specified characteristics as well as full sol...

the effect of consciousness-raising activities on learning grammatical structures by iranian guidance school efl learners

abstract the first purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of consciousness-raising (c-r) activities on learning grammatical structures (simple present tense in this case) by iranian guidance school efl learners. the second one was to investigate the effect of gender on learning the simple present tense through c-r activities and tasks. finally, this study aimed to investigate the ...
