Uncertainty in Seismic Capacity of Masonry Buildings
Seismic assessment of masonry structures is plagued by both inherent randomness and model uncertainty. The former is referred to as aleatory uncertainty, the latter as epistemic uncertainty because it depends on the knowledge level. Pioneering studies on reinforced concrete buildings have revealed a significant influence of modeling parameters on seismic vulnerability. However, confidence in me...
متن کاملThe buffering capacity of porcine muscles.
The aim of this study was to investigate the buffering capacity (BC) of five porcine muscles. The pH of muscles with zero lactate was also estimated. The BC was calculated on the basis of the amount of lactate accumulating in the muscle between two sampling times and the simultaneous pH decline. Two muscle samples were obtained from each muscle (n=13-36): one as soon as possible after slaughter...
متن کاملAnalysis of coupled heat and moisture transfer in masonry structures
Evaluation of effective or macroscopic coefficients of thermal conductivity under coupled heat and moisture transfer is presented. The paper first gives a detailed summary on the solution of a simple steady state heat conduction problem with an emphasis on various types of boundary conditions applied to the representative volume element – a periodic unit cell. Since the results essentially sugg...
متن کاملQualitative and Quantitative Assessment of Interior Moisture Buffering
The significance of interior humidity in attaining sustainable, durable, healthy and comfortable buildings is increasingly recognised. Any interior humidity evaluation requires a qualitative and/or quantitative assessment of interior moisture buffering. This paper introduces the production-adaptive characterisation of the moisture buffer potential of single elements and corroborates their super...
متن کاملThe response of blood buffering capacity and H+ regulation to three types of recovery during repeated high-intensity endurance training
Background/aim: Many studies were shown the effect of type's recovery on performance. Active recovery has been reported by some to promote greater exercise capacity, while others have not confirmed these results. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of three types of recovery during repeated high-intensity endurance training on blood buffering capacity and H+ regulation. Desig...
