The Bouc–Wen nonlinear hysteretic model has many control parameters, which been widely used in the field of seismic isolation. isolation layer is most important part system, can be effectively simulated by model, and system reflect different dynamic characteristics under parameters. Therefore, this paper mainly studies analyzes influence factors based on incremental harmonic balance method, pro...

Daily aerosol samples collected at Bermuda and Barbados as part of the Atmospherc/Ocean Chemistry Experiment (AEROCE) wen analyzed to evaluate the sources for selenium (Se). Isentropic trajectories wen used to further evaluate the sources suggested by the chemial information. At Bermuda, the major source for Se was anthropogeniccmissions from ~ G h ~ m e r i c a . Daily Seconcentrations wen hig...

Learning Objectives Upon completion of this activity, the participant will be able to: & Discuss the optimal medical and neurologic management of patients with high-grade gliomas & Recognize the most frequent adverse events related to treatments in patients with high-grade gliomas & Choose the best treatment for patients with high-grade gliomas & Recognize the pitfalls and advantages of neuroim...

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is the most common psychological disorder among victims of natural disasters. PTSD prevalence and risk factors among adolescents remain unidentified among victims of the Wen-Chuan earthquake. This study screened survivors to determine the prevalence of PTSD and examined risk factors for PTSD among adolescents at three Wen-Chuan secondary schools. PTSD scree...

Particle swarm optimization (PSO) technique has achieved a considerable success in solving nonlinear, nondifferentiable, multi-modal optimization problems. Currently, PSO is broadly applied in several scientific and engineering optimization applications. This paper introduces an identification of magnetorheological (MR) damper’s parameters using the PSO algorithm to introduce a more simple and ...

We construct large classes of exactly solvable pseudo-Hermitian 2D spin Hamiltonians. The ground states these systems depend only on the spatial topology system. identify state system a surface with value assigned to by non-semisimple TQFT generalizing Turaev–Viro model. A non-trivial example arises from subcategory representations quantum sl(2) where parameter is specialized root unity.
