Internal and external forces in language change

If every productive form of linguistic expression can be described by some idealized human grammar, an individuals’s variable linguistic behavior (Weinreich, Labov, & Herzog, 1968) can be modeled as a statistical distribution of multiple idealized grammars. The distribution of grammars is determined by the interaction between the biological constraints on human grammar and the properties of lin...

Offshore anchor piles under mooring forces: centrifuge modeling

Offshore anchor piles are seafloor moorings that keep the position of floating structures during a harsh environment. These piles are usually subjected to a wide range of monotonic and cyclic lateral-to-oblique pullout forces. Centrifuge tests were carried out to study the behavior of offshore anchor piles under mooring forces in saturated dense sand. The tests were carried out at different loa...

Offshore anchor piles under mooring forces: numerical modeling

A parametric study was carried out to study the behavior of offshore anchor piles under mooring forces in dense sand using a three dimensional (3-D) finite element model (FEM). The Mohr–Coulomb plastic model has been used to model the soil, and has been calibrated based on the centrifuge tests discussed in a Ph.D. thesis (published by Ramadan in 2011). The selection of model parameters and comp...

Robust Control Synchronization on Multi-Story Structure under Earthquake Loads and Random Forces using H∞ Algorithm

In this paper‎, ‎the concept of synchronization control along with robust H∞ control are considered to evaluate the seismic response control on multi-story structures‎. ‎To show the accuracy of the novel algorithm‎, ‎a five-story structure is evaluated under the EL-Centro earthquake load‎. ‎In order to find the performance of the novel algorithm‎, ‎random and uncertainty processes corresponding...
