in this research, the effectiveness of multiple tuned mass dampers (mtmds) in mitigating the response of nonlinear hysteretic structures has been studied where the optimal parameters of mtmds have been determined based on minimization of maximum relative displacement (drift) of structure. for solving the optimization problem the genetic algorithm (ga) has been used successfully. for numerical a...

in this paper, the detector of moving target in mimo radar with widely separated antenna in the presence of α-stable clutter is proposed. due to the complexity of unknown parameter estimation in the presence of target, the rao test is applied. the α-stable model is a general model that can applied to different environments with appropriate selection of parameters. the problem with this model is...
