This paper focuses on the compressive strength of Glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP)-confined concrete columns. Data from 114 sets GFRP-confined columns were collected to evaluate researchers’ and proposed model. A data-driven machine learning model was used investigate importance sensitivity parameters affecting strength. The results show that facilitates study confined but suffers a large ...

To investigate the action of motilin on the sphincter of Oddi, the flow rate of the perfusate (FRP) discharged into the duodenal lumen through the orifice of the common bile duct was measured by means of an electric drop counter in decerebrated dogs. Motilin in doses above 0.5 micrograms/kg i.v. reduced or stopped the FRP. The fifty percent recovery time of FRP was 20 min and full recovery time...

In previous work we presented Functional Reactive Programming (FRP), a general framework for designing hybrid systems and developing domain-specific languages for related domains. FRP’s synchronous dataflow features, like event driven switching, supported by higherorder lazy functional abstractions of Haskell allows rapid development of modular and reusable specifications. In this paper, we wil...

The strengthening of concrete structures externally bonded with fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) sheet is increasingly being used for repair and rehabilitation of existing structures. This paper provides information in the area of long-term durability of FRP-concrete interface externally bonded with FRP composite sheet. It mainly discusses and summarizes the influence of harsh environmental expos...

silicon thin layers are deposited on glass substrates with the thickness of 103 nm, 147 nm and 197 nm. the layers are produced with electron gun evaporation method under ultra-high vacuum condition. the optical reectance and the transmittance of produced layers were measured by using spectrophotometer. the optical functions such as, real and imaginary part of refractive index, real and imaginar...

In this paper a new parallel version of finding the Fuzzy Reasoning Path (FRP) using the knowledge representation model, introduced by Chandwani & Chaudhari [1] known as Fuzzy Deduction Graph (FDG) is presented. In an FDG, a systematic method of finding the Fuzzy Reasoning Path (FRP) already exists, which is based on Dijkstra's shortest path framework [2]. Our FRP algorithm is conglomerati...

CONTEXT Immunological similarities have been noted between HIV-infected individuals and older HIV-negative adults. Immunologic alterations with aging have been noted in frailty in older adults, a clinical syndrome of high risk for mortality and other adverse outcomes. Using a frailty-related phenotype (FRP), we investigated in the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study whether progressive deterioration ...

This paper presents the results of an experimental study of the mechanical properties of FRP reinforcement bars, used as internal reinforcement in concrete structures, at elevated temperatures. Two types of FRP bars namely: carbon fibre reinforced polyester bars of 9.5mm diameter and glass fibre reinforced polyester bars of 9.5mm and 12.7 mm diameter were used in the study. For comparison, conv...

The objective of this research project is to examine the use of FRP materials for bridge construction. In particular, this project utilizes glass FRP (GFRP) honeycomb sandwich panels. The installation of three bridges, one comprised solely of the FRP panels and two comprised of the FRP panels supported by steel girders, is outlined. Furthermore, results of preliminary testing conducted on the F...

Effects of ouabain and catecholamines_ and their modifications_ by propranolol were investigat ed on the functional refractory period ( FRP ), contractile force and heart rate in isolated atria of guinea-pigs_ and rats.. Catecholamines produced a transient decrease in the FRP of guinea-pig atria, while ouabain caused a continual increase after a latent period of 5 to 10 minutes. The FRP in rat ...
