Abstract All around the world, non-engineered masonry constructions (NECs) typically have high vulnerability to seismic ground motion, resulting in heavy damage and severe casualties after earthquakes. Even though a number of computational strategies been developed for analysis unreinforced structures, few studies focussed on NECs located developing countries. In this paper, different modelling...

prediction of mechanical properties of carbon nanotube-based composite is one of the important issues which should be addressed reasonably. a proper modeling approach is a multi-scale technique starting from nano scale and lasting to macro scale passing in-between scales of micro and meso. the main goal of this research is to develop a multi-scale modeling approach to extract mechanical propert...

It is known that the essential ingredients of a Lisp-style unhygienic macro system can be expressed in terms of advanced hygienic macro systems. We show that the reverse is also true: We present a model of a core unhygienic macro system, on top of which a hygiene-compatible macro system can be built, without changing the internals of the core macro system and without using a code walker. To ach...

The paper presents an algorithm for multi-agent strategic modeling (MASM). The method applies domain knowledge and transforms sequences of basic multi-agent actions into a set of strategic action descriptions in the form of graph paths, agent actions, roles and corresponding rules. The rules, constructed by machine learning, enrich the graphical strategic patterns, which are presented in the fo...

Synthetic routes for the preparation of O-acetyl-ADP-ribose and two novel non-hydrolyzable analogs containing an N-acetyl are described and shown to interact with the macro domain of histone protein H2A1.1.

4 ABSTRACT: Anaerobic digestion (AD) of the organic fraction of municipal solid waste (OFMSW) 5 is promoted as an energy source and more recently as a GHG mitigation measure. In this context, AD 6 systems operating at thermophilic temperatures (55-60C) – compared to mesophilic temperatures 7 (35-40C) – have the unique feature of producing hygienic soil conditioners with greater process 8 effici...

Elements in accordance with a certain proportion and spatial arrangement constitute the microstructure of building materials, which lead to specific property function macro. From perspective element chemistry, we divide common materials into three categories: silicon-based carbon-based iron-based materials. Then, knowledge valence electron structure electronic configuration, systematically expo...
