A two-step system identification is presented to estimate modal properties of a base-fixed model from ambient vibration records on multi-story building with soil-structure interaction (SSI). In the first step output-only stochastic subspace method employed for estimating SSI. second are modified estimates, by using theoretical relations between multi-degree-of-freedom SSI and its equivalent der...

The chief inorganic factors in secretions obtained from isolated pouches constructed in the fundus and in the pyloric antrum of the cat's stomach were found to be chloride ion and fixed base. In a series of samples obtained from the fundic pouch, chloride ion was approximately stationary at 165 cc. 0.1 N per 100 cc. During digestion of food in the stomach, secretions from the pouch contained fi...

In terms of the irreducible bases of the group space of the octahedral double group O’, an analytic formula is obtained to combine the spin states |j, μ〉 into the symmetrical adapted bases, belonging to a given row of a given irreducible representation of O’. This method is effective for all double point groups. However, for the subgroups of O’, there is another way to obtain those combinations...

It is well known that fixed boundary conditions are often difficult if not impossible to simulate experimentally, but they are important to consider in many applications. Mayes and Bridgers ["Extracting Fixed Base Modal Models from Vibration Tests on Flexible Tables," IMAC XXVII, Orlando, Florda, 2009.] recently presented a method whereby one can determine the fixed base modes of a structure fr...

Inductive reasoning is an important way to generate knowledge from the propositions reflecting facts or directly from data We intend to extract new knowledge in the form of definitions given as fixed point equations. An appropriate fixed point theory is outlined in favour of our aim. This theory suggests the so called generative fixed point equation system as the form of hypothesis that we are ...

We consider a packet switched wireless network in which a base station serves the mobiles. The packets for the mobiles arrive at the base station and have to be scheduled for transmission to the mobiles. The capacity of the channel from the base station to the mobiles is varying with time due to fading. We assume the mobiles can obtain different types of service based on the prices they are wil...

A spectral sequence which may be regarded as an 'Adams spectral sequence over a fixed space 2?' has been constructed by J. F. McClendon [6] and J.-P. Meyer [8]. This note describes a generalization in which there is no need for any orientability assumptions. The construction is carried out in a suitable stable category, which may be of independent interest. An application to the enumeration of ...
