The effect analysis of strain rate on power transmission tower-line system under seismic excitation is studied in this paper. A three-dimensional finite element model of a transmission tower-line system is created based on a real project. Using theoretical analysis and numerical simulation, incremental dynamic analysis of the power transmission tower-line system is conducted to investigate the ...

The Dynamics characteristic of Tower Crane is complicated under the wind excitation which complicates the wind-induced vibration response analysis. The random wind-induced response analysis of tower crane is presented based on finite element method and Virtual Excitation Method. The pulsating wind loads are changed into multiple-point correlation stationary excitation. This papers uses Davenpor...

The paper describes the research activities conducted on the 13 century Rognosa tower in San Gimignano (Siena, Italy), the historic town inscribed on the Unesco World Heritage List in 1990. A structural nonlinear analysis of the tower has been performed via the freeware finite element code NOSA. The finite element mesh of the tower has been generated using a three-dimensional digital model of t...

1 Loss System For a background review, I started the summer vacation scholorship by looking at loss systems. In a telecommunication context, this means that a new coming call is blocked (or lost) if there is no free circuits for that call. First of all, I made myself familiar with the notations. In a loss system, let C be the total number of circuits available, n be the number of circuits in us...

Some of the algorithms for solving the Tower of Hanoi puzzle can be applied “with eyes closed” or “without memory”. Here we survey the solution for the classical tower of Hanoi that uses finite automata, as well as some variations on the original puzzle. In passing, we obtain a new result on morphisms generating the classical and the lazy tower of Hanoi, and a new result on auomatic sequences.

The fog entered and escaped through the openings of the tower, displaying iridescent colors and creating ever-changing and fast-moving fog shadows of the tower and the cables (Figure 2). I emailed a few images to Dr Andrew T. Young at the Astronomy Department, San Diego State Univ...

This pearl aims to demonstrate the ideas of wholemeal and projective programming using the Towers of Hanoi puzzle as a running example. The puzzle has its own beauty, which we hope to expose along the way.

The growing number of unauthorized activities and various trends of networking technologies in telecommunication network have added heavy burdens to telecommunication performance management (PM) system. One-class-support vector machine (OCSVM) is introduced in this paper, to automatically detect network anomalies. Real telecommunication performance data are employed in this paper to investigate...
