This paper examines differences in performances of a range of torsionally stiff and flexible single story buildings designed with the provisions of Iranian Standard 2800. Seismic nonlinear dynamic time history behavior of eight building models subjected to seven horizontal bi-directional design spectra compatible ground motions are investigated. These models cover a wide range of very torsional...

A 2.45-GHz self-adaptive rectifier based on a two-way Gysel power divider (PD) with switch networks (SN), an impedance transform network (ITN), feedback (FN) and two rectifiers is developed in this paper. The SNs ITN are controlled by FN according to output voltages. single-path mode at low level switches two-path high level. It has been simulated, fabricated tested. original input range when e...
