Nålbinding is the collective name for several thousands of stitches formed using yarn and a needle to create fabric. A nålbound fabric consists stitch or row loops that connected sewn in previous row. Only handful connections have been documented described. This paper analyses around 150 swatches made by author with purpose exploring how many types there are different change texture same basic ...

In this paper we deene a Lagois connection, which is a generalization of a special type of Galois connection. We begin by introducing two examples of Lagois connections. We then recall the deenition of Galois connection and some of its properties; next we deene Lagois connection, establish some of its properties, and compare these with properties of Galois connections; and then we (further) dev...

Recently, steel structures have been accounted for a large percentage of the buildings due to their advantages such as higher execution speed and easier construction. In steel structures, welded joints are commonly used and their quality plays a key role in stability of buildings under applied loads. Hence, to increase resiliency of welded steel structures against natural hazards, welded joints...

Following the Northridge earthquake of 1994, a significant number of steel moment resisting structural systems were damaged. Several studies have been conducted to improve the seismic performance of steel structures and specially their beam-to-column connections. One of the proposed connections for special moment-resisting frames included AISC-358 is Kaiser bolted bracket moment connection, bri...

It is generally accepted that performance-based design has to be reliability-based. Seismic performance evaluation is based on nonlinear dynamics and reliability theory taking into account uncertainties during analysis. Considering the economic importance of jacket type offshore platforms, the present research aims to assess the seismic performance of offshore steel platforms. In this study, th...

Today connections are playing an important role in the steel frames subjected to lateral seismic loading. The steel extended end-plate moment connection can play an important role in the steel frame when subjected to seismic loadings. In the past, this type of connection has been under investigation mainly when it was subjected to monotonic loading. After major recent earthquakes and failure of...

‎two types of properties for linear connections (natural and almost paracontact metric) are discussed in almost paracontact metric geometry with respect to four linear connections‎: ‎levi-civita‎, ‎canonical (zamkovoy)‎, ‎golab and generalized dual‎. ‎their relationship is also analyzed with a special view towards their curvature‎. ‎the particular case of an almost paracosymplectic manifold giv...
