Hilbert frames theory have been extended to frames in Hilbert $C^*$-modules. The paper introduces equivalent $*$-frames and presents ordinary duals of a constructed $*$-frame by an adjointable and invertible operator. Also, some necessary and sufficient conditions are studied such that $*$-frames and ordinary duals or operator duals of another $*$-frames are equivalent under these conditions. W...

in this study, for evaluating ductility of ordinary concentrically braced frames (ocbfs) and special concentrically braced frames (scbfs) which are x- braced in two adjacent middle spans, 16 steel ordinary concentrically braced frames and 16 special concentrically braced frames are studied. the results confirm that, although most of ordinary concentrically braced frames, which are x-braced, can...

Network analysts have developed a number of techniques for identifying cohesive subgroups in networks. In general, however, no consideration is given to actors that do not belong to a given group. In this paper, we explore ways of identifying actors that are not members of a given cohesive subgroup, but who are sufficiently well tied to the group to be considered peripheral members. We then use...

in this paper we proved that every g-riesz basis for hilbert space $h$ with respect to $k$ by adding a condition is a riesz basis for hilbert $b(k)$-module $b(h,k)$. this is an extension of [a. askarizadeh,m. a. dehghan, {em g-frames as special frames}, turk. j. math., 35, (2011) 1-11]. also, we derived similar results for g-orthonormal and orthogonal bases. some relationships between dual fram...

To enable the effective and reliable use of structural adhesive bonding in automotive applications, the cohesive properties of a joint need to be determined over a wide range of loading rates. In this paper, a strategy for determining these properties has been described and used to analyze a set of experimental results presented in a companion paper. In the particular system studied, a crack gr...

The one-dimensional (vertical) sediment-transport model SEDTRANS96 has been upgraded to predict more accurately both cohesive and non-cohesive sediment transport. Sedtrans05 computes the bed shear stress for a given set of flow and seabed conditions using combined wave-current bottom boundary layer theory. Sediment transport (bedload and total load) is evaluated using one of five methods. The m...

We have performed quantum Monte Carlo calculations to study the cohesion energetics of carbon allotropes, including sp(3)-bonded diamond, sp(2)-bonded graphene, sp-sp(2) hybridized graphynes, and sp-bonded carbyne. The computed cohesive energies of diamond and graphene are found to be in excellent agreement with the corresponding values determined experimentally for diamond and graphite, respec...

development of new methods in seismic analysis and increasing application of performance based seismic design necessitate the study of the seismic performance of structures designed based on iranian regulations. in this study the seismic performance of steel moment-resisting frames designed based on the tenth code of the iranian national building regulations is investigated. frames are differen...

pure rockfill dams have been found specific attention in watershed management and flood control, recently. in addition to hydraulic specific features, one of the important advantages of these structures is their consistency with nature and environment. normally, floods are accompanied with high sediment loads which may enter the body of dam. when flow through dam body governed by hydraulic grad...
