Tungsten-containing amorphous carbon films were produced by dual magnetron sputter deposition. The formation of carbide phases after heat treatment in inert gas at temperatures up to 2800 K was investigated by X-ray diffraction for tungsten concentrations below 25 at%. After deposition, each film consists of an amorphous carbon matrix with atomically dispersed W inclusions. Annealing up to 2800...

the proposal lateral load pattern for pushover analysis is given in two forms for symmetric concrete buildings: 1-(x/h)0.5 for low-rise and mid-rise buildings, 2- sin(πx/h) for high-rise buildings. these two forms give more realistic results as compared to conventional load patterns such as triangular and uniform load patterns. the assumed buildings of 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 30 story concrete bui...

regarding the increasing demand for lightweight concrete especially lightweight structural concrete, and safety requirements underlined in 2800 iranian standard, research to achieve the optimized results in lightweight concrete production seems inevitable. since, one of the commonly used methods for producing the light eight concrete, utilizes the light weight aggregates with significant role i...

The On Board Diagnosis (OBD-II) standard allows accessing the vehicles’ Electronic Control Unit (ECU) easily through a Bluetooth OBD-II connector. This paper presents the DrivingStyles architecture, which adopts data mining techniques and neural networks to analyze and generate a classification of driving styles by analysing the characteristics of the driver along the route followed. The final ...
