the sirri jacket offshore platform was designed and installed in persian gulf of iran in 1975 and has been in service since that time. the importance of offshore structure's stability and the failure of this kind of structure during an earthquake in different active zones revealed that earthquake loading has to be considered. in this paper, magnetorheological (mr) fluid dampers have been propos...

prediction using pure standards is expected to be biased whenever the slope of the calibration is affected by the presence of sample matrix. moreover, in the presence of unknown spectral interferents, first-order algorithms like partial least squares cannot be used. in this study, a method for determination of carvedilol (car) in tablet and urine samples is proposed by excitation-emission fluor...

We study a multivariate, non-linear Hawkes process ZN on the complete graph with N nodes. Each vertex is either excitatory (probability p) or inhibitory 1?p). take mean-field limit of ZN, leading to multivariate point Z?. If p?12, we rescale interaction intensity by and find that solves deterministic convolution equation all components Z? are independent. In critical case, p=12, N1/2 obtain int...
