abstract

through the last three decades different seismological and engineering approaches for the generation of artificial earthquakes have been proposed. selection of an appropriate method for the generation of applicable artificial earthquake accelerograms (aeas) has been a challenging subject in the time history analysis of the structures in the case of the absence of sufficient recorded accelerograms. in this paper we have spotlighted the application of the evolutionary algorithms in the aeas generation approaches. in this regard, we have statistically apprised the two novel methods; the genetic algorithm-based and the hybrid evolutionary neural network-based methods. the main feature of this paper is to provide some statistical information of the two proposed methods to make some quantitative criteria for assessing the future models and algorithms. the assessment is performed based on three major functions of the spectrum-compatibility, the stochastic diversity of generated seismographs and the computational efforts. the results demonstrate the practical advantages of the evolutionary algorithms in this context.

the effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)

cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...

romantic education:reading william wordsworths the prelude in the light of the history of ideas

عصر روشنگری زمان شکل گیری ایده های مدرن تربیتی- آموزشی بود اما تاکید بیش از اندازه ی دوشاخه مهم فلسفی زمان یعنی عقل گرایی و حس گرایی بر دقت و وضوح، انسان عصر روشنگری را نسبت به دیگر تواناییهایش نابینا کرده و موجب به وجود آمدن افرادی تک بعدی شد که افتخارعقلانیتشان، تاکید شان بر تجربه فردی، به مبارزه طلبیدن منطق نیاکانشان وافسون زدایی شان از دنیا وتمام آنچه با حواس پنجگانه قابل درک نبوده و یا در ...
