Physical model tests with the scale of 1:36 are carried out in the Near-Shore Wave Basin (NSWB) at Tainan Hydraulics Laboratory (THL) with the jacket-type offshore wind turbine foundation (jacket-type foundation) and the combination of hard or soft scour protection in the test area. Scouring around the jacket-type foundation exposed to wave and current was conducted in the NSWB with a mobile be...

Interocular transfer of the tilt aftereffect was investigated in normal humans with good stereopsis and in subjects without stereoscopic vision. These latter subjects were divided into two groups: those with and those without a history of strabismus. Strabismic subjects showed grossly reduced interocular transfer of the effect (12% mean transfer). Nonstrabismic subjects had moderate transfer (4...

‎we introduce a generalization of the notion of‎ depth of an ideal on a module by applying the concept of‎ local cohomology modules with respect to a pair‎ ‎of ideals‎. ‎we also introduce the concept of $(i,j)$-cohen--macaulay modules as a generalization of concept of cohen--macaulay modules‎. ‎these kind of modules are different from cohen--macaulay modules‎, as an example shows‎. ‎also an art...

let s be a locally compact foundation semigroup with identity and                          be its semigroup algebra. let x be a weak*-closed left translation invariant subspace of    in this paper, we prove that  x  is invariantly  complemented in   if and  only if  the left ideal  of    has a bounded approximate identity. we also prove that a foundation semigroup with identity s is left amenab...

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The optimal luting material for fiber-reinforced posts to ensure the longevity of foundation restorations remains undetermined. PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the suitability of 3 dual-polymerizing resin cements and 2 dual-polymerizing foundation composite resins for luting fiber-reinforced posts by assessing their Knoop hardness number. MATERIAL AND ...

Modern construction of pile foundations in permafrost conditions includes a cycle operations: conducting geological and geodesic surveys; developing design estimate documentation; installation work; monitoring. Six main indicators are considered to determine the organizational technological reliability for industrial tanks soils: environmental performance (EF), intensity (Cf), cost innovation (...

This study reports some prosodic characteristics in the quasispontaneous classroom speech of Chinese EFL learners. Recordings of ten dialogues produced by twenty second-year non-English majors were analyzed to extract the following features: durations of interand intra-turn pauses, duration of filled-in pauses, numbers of words per tone unit, tone unit durations, speech rates and pitch accent t...

Lambek calculus is a logical foundation of categorial grammar, a linguistic paradigm of grammar as logic and parsing as deduction. Pentus (2010) gave a polynomial-time algorithm for determining provability of bounded depth formulas in L∗, the Lambek calculus with empty antecedents allowed. Pentus’ algorithm is based on tabularisation of proof nets. Lambek calculus with brackets is a conservativ...

The goal of this article is to explain how several single image defogging methods work using a color ellipsoid framework. The foundation of the framework is the atmospheric dichromatic model which is analogous to the reflectance dichromatic model. A key step in single image defogging is the ability to estimate relative depth. Therefore, properties of the color ellipsoids are tied to depth cues ...
