the objective of this review to be submitted in two independent parts, for steel frames and for rc frames, is to compare their structural performance with respect to the proposed n2-method, and so also of the consequent convenience of using pushover methodology for the seismic analysis of these structures. a preliminary investigation is presented on a pushover analysis used for the seismic perf...

this paper introduces a novel approach to improve performance of speech recognition systems using a combination of features obtained from speech reconstructed phase space (rps) and frequency domain analysis. by choosing an appropriate value for the dimension, reconstructed phase space is assured to be topologically equivalent to the dynamics of the speech production system, and could therefore ...

analytical solutions and type curves for the constant rate radial flow of fluid in both conventional and naturally fractured reservoirs including the effect of wellbore phase redistribution are presented. an automated procedure for non-linear least square minimization using the analytical solutions and their derivatives with respect to the unknown parameters developed to analyze the pressure bu...

classical deterministic inventory models consider the demand rate to be either constant or time-dependent but independent from the stock status. however, for a certain type of inventory, the demand rate may be in-fluenced by the stock level. also in many real-life problems, some products such as fruits, vegetables, phar-maceuticals and volatile liquids continuously deteriorate to evaporation, o...

abstract morphological river models are designed to provide physical insight into the morphological response and to assist river engineers and managers in the design, operation and maintenance of river systems. here deterministic modeling weak for a dynamic and stochastic of nature river environment. specially, these could not predict the exact shape of the river bed, specially e.g. for braided...

The variations in the structural magnetic properties of cobalt ferrite due to Ti4+/Co2+ co-substitution for 2Fe3+ are presented. The non-linear relation in the variation of the lattice parameter agrees with a previous study on cation distribution, which showed that the rate of substitution of cations into the A-sites and B-sites varies with Ti-concentration. Such variation in the rate of substi...

The topological susceptibility, χ, following the work of Witten and Veneziano, plays a key role in identifying the relative magnitude of the η′ mass, the so-called U(1)A problem. A nonzero χ 4 is caused by the Veneziano ghost, the occurrence of an unphysical massless pole in the correlation function of the topological current Kμ. In a recent paper, [1], an explicit relationship between this Ven...

In this paper, we review the linear and non-linear dynamics of an optomechanical system made a two-membrane etalon in high-finesse Fabry–Pérot cavity. This setup has capacity to modify on demand single-photon coupling, linearized interaction regime cool simultaneously two mechanical oscillators. It is promising platform for realizing cavity optomechanics with multiple resonators. regime, analyt...
