Semi-stability and base change

MULTI-OBJECTIVE SEMI-ACTIVE BASE ISOLATION SYSTEM

Semi-active base isolation system has been proposed mainly to mitigate the base drift of isolated structures while in most cases, its application causes the maximum acceleration of superstructure to be increased. In this paper, designing optimal semi-active base isolation system composed of linear base isolation system with low damping and magneto-rheological (MR) damper has been studied for co...

Belief Change and Base Dependence

A strong intuition for AGM belief change operations, Gärdenfors suggests, is that formulas that are independent of a change should remain intact. Based on this intuition, Farias and Herzig axiomatize a dependence relation w.r.t. a belief set, and formalize the connection between dependence and belief change. In this paper, we introduce base dependence as a relation between formulas w.r.t. a bel...

Semi Stability Factors

A (semistability) factor [semifactor] of a matrix AE r: nn is a positive definite [positive semidefinite] matrix H such that AH + HA* is positive semidefinite. We give three proofs to show that if A has a semistability factor then it cannot be unique. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a matrix H to be a (semi)factor of a given matrix. We also determine the dimension of the cone of...

منطقه ی آسیای مرکزی وقفقاز به عنوان منطقه ای تاریخی و به دلیل دارا بودن ذخایر عظیم هیدرو کربنی از اهمیت ویژه ای برخوردار است. کشورهای این منطقه از عوامل عمده ی بی ثباتی نظیر عوامل جغرافیایی، اقتصادی، امنیتی، اجتماعی و سیاسی رنج می برند. پس از فروپاشی اتحاد جماهیر شوروی کشورهای منطقه از نعمت استقلال ناخواسته ای برخوردار شدند که مشکلات فوق را برای آن ها چندین برابر می کرد. در این روند برخی از این...
