a new base isolation method for reducing the destructive effect of earthquake is proposed in this method mushroom shaped basements are used under structures as base isolation. these basements have spherical surface and are located on foundations. basements have pinned arms that are connected. when the length of the arm is less then the radius of spherical surface, the action of them is similar ...

The objectives of this study were to examine the consequences of an acute hamstring injury on performance and mechanical properties of sprint-running at the time of returning to sports and after the subsequent ~2 months of regular soccer training after return. 28 semi-professional male soccer players, 14 with a recent history of unilateral hamstring injury and 14 without prior injury, participa...

Abstract Returning a system to desired state under force field involves thermodynamic cost, i.e. work . This cost fluctuates for small-scale from one experimental realization another. We introduce general framework determine the distribution returning facilitated by confining potential with its minimum at restart location. The strategy, based on average over resetting pathways , constitutes rob...

One of the factors which influence individual's decision for presence or absence in the labor force is their personal features. In order to take appropriate policies to create employment and remove its obstacles in the countries labor market, we need to know the factors mentioned above and determine the amount and direction in which each factor influences the probability of individual's presenc...
