Introduction: The Covid-19 outbreak crisis in 2019 ushered in a new chapter in the development of virtual communication systems. Social networks can be considered one of the most successful tools in the field of information technology which always plays an important role in such situations. Availability, low cost, high reliability, popularity, and scalability are some of the key features of soc...

Among compliant offshore platforms, tension leg platforms (TLP) are referred to, as hybrid structures. This kind of platforms resemble to ordinary semi submersibles when their serge, sway and yaw motions are considered, since they are compliant whereas with respect to pith, roll and heave motions they respond more like a fixed platform rather than a floating body. This paper presents a method t...

Steel offshore platforms are some of those structures which are built to withstand environmental and accidental loads during oil exploitation operation. Particular attention is being paid to earthquake loads in seismic active areas because it directly influences the capacity of the offshore structure installations. The uncertainties available in earthquake loads as well as in strength of struct...

In this paper, the modification of Endurance Wave Analysis (EWA) in assessment of offshore platforms based on the new-wave theory is introduced. EWA is a new method to estimate the response of offshore structures in different sea states by use of incremental records. This study is offered practical procedures to select time duration and intensifying trend of the records. In addition, a simplifi...

abstract this study investigates the teachers’ correction of students’ spoken errors of linguistic forms in efl classes, aiming at (a) examining the relationship between the learners’ proficiency level and the provision of corrective feedback types, (b) exploring the extent to which teachers’ use of different corrective feedback types is related to the immediate types of context in which err...
