In the case of study on the seismic behavior of tanks, one of the most important subjects is selection of convective and impulsive frequencies for storage tanks. These two frequencies are defined by Housner. The major utility of these frequencies is for Rayleigh damping which is a must for time history analysis. API 650, EUROCODE 8 have suggested some analytical solutions for finding convective...

The goal of this study was to model the dynamic failure properties of ligaments and their attachment sites to facilitate the development of more realistic dynamic finite element models of the human lower extremities for use in automotive collision simulations. Porcine medial collateral ligaments were chosen as a test model due to their similarities in size and geometry with human ligaments. Eac...

This paper is concerned with the problem of H control of fuzzy nonlinear impulsive systems with quantized feedback. New results on the H feedback control are established for one class of fuzzy nonlinear uncertain impulsive systems and one class of fuzzy nonlinear impulsive systems with nonlinear uncertainties by choosing appropriately quantized strategies and applying Lyapunov function approach...

This paper investigates the practical exponential stability of equilibrium for impulsive systems. Stability theorem and converse stability theorem are established by employing the second Lyapunov method. These theorems are used to analyze the practical exponential stability of the zero solution of perturbed impulsive systems and cascaded impulsive systems.

This research deals with learning in digital environments. Adaptive game-based learning considers learners’ preferred learning behavior and adapts the game system accordingly. In order to analyze learning behavior, the focus lies on a specific cognitive style, impulsive and reflective (I/R), which describe behaviors in problem-solving and decision-making environments. Impulsive people tend to r...

In this paper, we consider the pest management model with spraying microbial pesticide and releasing the infected pests, and the infected pests have the function similar to the microbial pesticide and can infect the healthy pests, further weaken or disable their prey function till death. By using the Floquet theory for impulsive differential equations, we show that there exists a globally asymp...

Yüksel Arslan Elektrik ve Elektronik Mühendisliği Bölümü Yıldırım Beyazıt Üniversitesi Ankara, Türkiye [email protected] Abstract— There are many methods proposed for the detection of impulsive sounds in literature. Most of them are complex and require adaptation to ambient noise. In this paper we propose a very simple and efficient method to detect impulsive sounds. Although we use energy...
