the current building codes provide limited prescriptive guidance on design for protection of buildings due to progressive collapse. progressive collapse is a situation in which a localized failure in a structure, caused by an abnormal load, such as explosions or other happenings. three procedures, often employed for determination of the structural response during progressive collapse i.e. linea...

The extended Born technique is an approximate nonlinear method for analyzing scattering from a weak discontinuity. Moreover, when applied to the low-frequency (electromagnetic induction) applications for which it was developed originally, extended Born has accurately modeled scattering from inhomogeneities considerably larger than those appropriate for the standard linear Born technique. In thi...

We investigate the Coulomb breakup of 11 Be halo nuclei on a light (carbon) target within nonperturbative time-dependent approach including low-lying resonance 5/2 + (E= 1.232 MeV). had found considerable contribution resonances ( , 3/2 − and ) to cross section heavy 208 Pb) at our previous calculations. The developed computational scheme is extended study target. This work initial step, where ...

This study provides a solution for multiple group/extended target tracking with an arbitrary shape. Many approaches extended/group targets have been proposed. However, these make assumptions about the shape, which limitations in practical applications. To address this problem, work, algorithm based on B-spline is Specifically, extension of extended or group was modeled as spatial probability di...
