Abstract. Construction progress monitoring is an important process throughout the project timeline towards its successful completion. Among imaging techniques, photogrammetry considered as economical and effective method. However, few studies can be found on construction via photogrammetry; thus, not much guideline available for this domain. This study evaluated tools assessment of rebar grid f...

Homeotic genes of Drosophila melanogaster encode transcription factors that specify segment identity by activating the appropriate set of target genes required to produce segment-specific characteristics. Advances in understanding target gene selection have been hampered by the lack of genes known to be directly regulated by the HOM-C proteins. Here we present evidence that the gene 1.28 is lik...

Grouted sleeve connections have been widely used in precast construction for joining rebar. In order to study their post-fire seismic performance, grouted connections, which are heated first elevated temperature and then cooled down room temperature, tested under both monotonic cyclic loadings. For comparisons, the same tests also carried out on continuous The failure modes, skeleton curves com...

Abstract Corrosion in reinforced concrete (RC) structures is associated with a reduction of the rebar diameter, loss interfacial bond, cracking, and eventual spalling probable collapse structure. The negative effects corrosion on structural safety, durability, longevity imposes significant costs national economy. Therefore, planned non-destructive testing (NDT) essential to enhance safety econo...

Ductile design and detailing provisions were revised in 2016 by the Bureau of Indian Standards. It introduced Strong Column Weak Beam Provision (SCWB) for beam-column joint. In this paper, an attempt is done to investigate influence SCWB provision on Longitudinal Rebar Quantity (LRQ) typical columns i.e. Corner Column, Edge Middle seismic Zones III, IV, V six-story buildings. Story-wise variati...

In κ-deformed relativistic framework we consider three different definitions of κ-deformed velocities and introduce corresponding addition laws. We show that one of the velocities has classical relativistic addition law. The relation of velocity formulae with the coproduct for fourmomenta and noncommutative space-time structure is exhibited.

Using the determinant representation of gauge transformation operator, we have shown that the general form of τ function of the q-KP hierarchy is a q-deformed generalized Wronskian, which includes the q-deformed Wronskian as a special case. On the basis of these, we study the q-deformed constrained KP (q-cKP) hierarchy, i.e. l-constraints of q-KP hierarchy. Similar to the ordinary constrained K...
