We present a web portal environment for analysis of GPS displacement data that supports interactive scientific exploration at both a network-wide (macro view) and individual station (micro view) level. Underlying this environment is a hidden Markov model based analysis method that allows segmentation of the GPS time series into statistically meaningful classes, as well as a web services infrast...

This work performs an investigation into the optimal position of two longitudinal stiffeners with different cross-section shapes such as open section (L-shaped and T-shaped) closed (rectangular triangular shapes) stiffened plate girders under bending loading through optimization procedure using a gradient-based interior point (IP) algorithm. The stiffener optimum locations are found by maximizi...

MOTIVATION Expressed Sequence Tags (ESTs) are short single-pass DNA sequences obtained from either ends of cDNA clones. To exploit these sequences efficiently, a dynamic Web-tool has been developed which uses these data to perform fast virtual cloning of cDNAs. RESULTS Starting with a query sequence, the user is able to identify related ESTs and extend the sequence of interest step by step, p...

the main purpose of present study is to figure out the web usage rate with emphasize on the invisible web, with using max weber's ideal type among faculty members of science college of bahonar university of kerman. the present study is a survey, and the statistical population is 109 full-time faculty members of the science college of shahid bahonar university of kerman, the sample size how was ...

this paper presents a finite element analysis and its related experimental test of corrugated steel web beams subjected to fatigue loading. a particular focus in this study was set on the fatigue failure arising from the web-to-flange welded joint of the corrugated steel web beam. a detailed three-dimensional finite element model which explicitly includes the geometry of the web-to-flange welds...

A mass web-based experiment has been carried out to explore people‟s perception of horrible sounds. The advantage of a web-based methodology is that it enables hundreds of thousands of judgements to be obtained over a diverse population. As part of the project, the effect of what people saw on the screen on how they rated the sounds was examined. The sounds were auditioned with images that were...
