In this research in-plane shear Behavior of composite steel-concrete shear walls was investigated considering the Effects of steel plates thickness, spaces between shear studs, shape and type of shear studs and existing of minimum reinforcement in wall section. Several finite element models were analyzed and Numerical results of two models were taken under verification with existent experimenta...

In this paper, the analytical solution of an electric and Volterra edge dislocation in a functionally graded piezoelectric (FGP) medium is obtained by means of complex Fourier transform. The system is subjected to in-plane mechanical and electrical loading. The material properties of the medium vary exponentially with coordinating parallel to the crack. In this study, the rate of the gradual ch...

We use the simulated plane wave section method to separate specular reflections and diffraction events. We show that plane wave sections naturally separate specular and diffracted events and allow us to use plane-wave distruction filters to suppress specular events resulting in plane-wave sections of diffractions. A synthetic example demonstrates the effectiveness of our method in imaging fault...

This research presents, buckling and free vibration analysis of fiber metal-laminated (FML) plates on a total and partial elastic foundation using the generalized differential quadrature method (GDQM). The partial foundation consists of multi-section Winkler and Pasternak type elastic foundation. Taking into consideration the first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT), FML plate is modeled and...

The scattering of an incident plane wave from an array of parallel circular dielectric and/or conducting cylinders is derived rigorously using a boundary value approach. Both transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (TM) polarized incident plane waves are considered. The validity and accuracy of the method are verified by comparing the numerical results with those based on other availab...

This document provides additional details about the implementation of the scene synthesis algorithm of Fisher et al. [2015], the associated activity detection and plane extraction methods, as well as the types of data provided in our scene, model, and scan databases. Section 2 lists and discusses the parameters used in our synthesis pipeline. The methodology and parameters used in activity dete...

This document presents some materials not included in the paper. In Section II, we illustrate the direct method for computing l i (w), l − i (w), α + i (w,v) and α − i (w), as well as the approach in Joachims (2006) that is similar to this method. Section III gives a comparison on relative function value, pairwise accuracy and NDCG with respect to the number of (CG) iterations between TRON and ...

symmetry has been for a century and continues to be a subject of interest in lens design. The study of these systems is relevant for understanding the effects of fabrication and assembly errors in lenses nominally designed as axially symmetric,' for designing reflective systems without a central obstruction,2 or for designing exotic systems that provide a practical solution to a difficult probl...
