Precast prestreesed concrete braces are a new method for seismic strength of Concrete Structures which has the following benefits: a) no wet concrete work in construction site b) No bolt or anchorage to the existing frame c) easy to apply d) short construction period e) low construction cost, to evaluate seismic performance of strengthened structure a model consist of existing frame and concret...

The strengthened discrete-time optimal projection equations (SDOPE) are presented in a form based on the delta operator. This form unifies discrete-time and continuous-time results. Based on this unification, recently established results and algorithms for finite and infinite-horizon fixed-order LQG compensation of discrete-time systems are carried over to the continuous-time case. The results ...

1. Background The Simple Liar is a sentence that says of itself only that it is false. The Strengthened Liar is a sentence that says of itself only that it is not true. How does the Strengthened Liar differ from its (allegedly) weaker brother, namely, the Simple Liar? According to standard thinking the Simple Liar, unlike the Strengthened Liar, yields inconsistency only if the following princip...

Current research paper deals with reinforced concrete (R.C.) beams numerical modeling and suggested strengthening procedure if it is required to create an opening within their shear zones. Strengthening assumed be achieved during different service load application conditions. Reinforced Concrete rectangular or circular in zone; as critical regions; sustain two concentrated system of loads are t...

Learners of a second language go through many proficiency levels during language learning. University language students can be considered advanced learners, who behaviourally perceive the language at least nearly similarly as native speakers. It can also be assumed that memory traces for the second language phonemes have developed for these learners and their MMN responses for foreign contrasts...
