These days there is an unprecedented rise in the number of lattice towers due to an ever increasing demand in communication. Lattice towers are 3D space frames that for design are conventionally analyzed as 2D trusses. For safety and economy, these designs need to be more rigorously analyzed considering them as 3D frames. In this study, two lattice towers of heights 18m and 40 have been analyze...

The present study addresses optimal design of reinforced concrete (RC) columns based on equivalent equations considering deformability regulations of ACI318-14 under axial force and uniaxial bending moment. This study contrary to common approaches working with trial and error approach in design, at first presents an exact solution for intensity of longitudinal reinforcement in column section by...

the goal of multi-frame super resolution (sr) is to fuse multiple low resolution (lr) images to produce one high resolution (hr) image. the major challenge of classic sr approaches is accurate motion estimation between the frames. to handle this challenge, fuzzy motion estimation method has been proposed that replaces value of each pixel using the weighted averaging all its neighboring pixels i...

In the design of a mechanical structure, we’re interested in finding a general layout of the structure’s supporting frame that best supports some anticipated design loads. Often, the design of such supporting frames are addressed in ad-hoc ways, such as by complicated domain-specific heuristics [TTG05, DG01]. Our project targets the problem of designing a truss–a collection of bars rigidly atta...

beam to column welded connection with radius cut on beam flange is known as rigid connection that provides acceptable ductility for special moment resisting frame (smrf). in order to decrease the cost of construction and to provide an easy-to-construct structure, the new method is available for reducing the beam section based on drilling on beam flange , known as drilled flange connection (dfc)...

this paper uses a psopc model based non-destructive damage identification procedure using frequency and modal data. the objective function formulation for the minimization problem is based on the frequency changes. the method is demonstrated by using a cantilever beam, four-bay plane truss and two-bay two-story plane frame with different scenarios. in this study, the modal data are provided nume...
