A novel intensity measure (IM), dimensionless floor displacement, is presented for evaluating the seismic fragility of freestanding rigid blocks subjected to one-sine acceleration pulses in this paper. The rocking responses are simulated using an equivalent single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) model with a bespoke discrete damper account energy dissipation. performance various IMs compared simulatio...

Dirac measure is an important measure in many related branches to mathematics. The current paper characterizes measure-preserving transformations between two Dirac measure spaces or a Dirac measure space and a probability measure space. Also, it studies isomorphic Dirac measure spaces, equivalence Dirac measure algebras, and conjugate of Dirac measure spaces. The equivalence classes of a Dirac ...

the purpose of this study was to examine the longitudinal responses of pulmonary volumes and capacities to serum cortisol in young wrestlers. for this purpose, 24 healthy young wrestlers (age 23.9±0.8 years, height 180.64±0.7 cm, weight 76.3±7.3 kg, bmi 23.4±8.5) volunteered to participate in this study. the subjects performed an incremental wrestling training up to 85% of mhr of the training, ...

This paper studies survival measures in credit risk models. Survival measure, which was first introduced by Schönbucher [12] in the framework of defaultable LMM, has the advantage of eliminating default indicator variable directly from the expectation by absorbing it into Randon-Nikodym density process. Survival measure approach was further extended by Collin-Duresne [4] to avoid calculating a ...
