Geosynthetics have proved to be suitable for reinforced soil retaining walls. Based on the increasing uses of geosynthetic reinforced soil systems in the regions, which bear frequent earthquakes, the study of dynamic behavior of structures seems necessary. Determining the reinforcement forces is; therefore, one of the most important and main points of discussions in designing retaining walls, b...

In this paper, we present a novel methodology for sports highlight detection based on audio information. For processing the sounds of sports events, we propose a timefrequency feature extraction method computing local autocorrelations on complex Fourier values (FLAC). For highlights detection, we apply (complex) subspace method to the extracted FLAC features to detect the “exciting” scenes whic...

It is shown, by electron microscope observation of the structures of heteroduplexes, that Mu-1 DNA inserted into the bacterial episomes Flac and F(8)[1] is collinear with, rather than a circulation permutation of, the DNA of the mature Mu-1 bacteriophage. Observation of the position of the inserted Mu defines a point within the gene that has been inactivated (the lacI gene for Flac and a transf...

FLAC is a program to calculate the small-angle neutron scattering intensity of highly packed polydisperse systems of neutral or charged hard spheres within the Percus-Yevick and the Mean Spherical Approximation closures, respectively. The polydisperse system is defined by a size distribution function and the macro-particles have hard sphere radii which may differ from the size of their scatteri...
