We construct dual formulation of linearised gravity in first order tetrad formalism in arbitrary dimensions within the path integral framework following the standard duality algorithm making use of the global shift symmetry of the tetrad field. The dual partition function is in terms of the (mixed symmetric) tensor field Φ[ν1ν2···νd−3]ν in frame-like formulation. We obtain in d-dimensions the d...

Petung bamboo is one of the alternatives to wood that needed due decreased availability in forest for construction. The objective this research was determine whether could substitute door frame. Research has been carried out propose alternate methods using produce frame are environmentally friendly. Engineering experimental conducted. data collection technique test specimens specific gravity te...

In this paper we discuss the threat of malware targeted at extracting information about the relationships in a real-world social network as well as characteristic information about the individuals in the network, which we dub Stealing Reality. We present Stealing Reality (SR), explain why it differs from traditional types of network attacks, and discuss why its impact is significantly more dang...

By sampling the window of a Gabor frame for L(R) belonging to Feichtinger’s algebra, S0(R), one obtains a Gabor frame for l(Z). In this article we present a survey of results by R. Orr and A.J.E.M. Janssen and extend their ideas to cover interrelations among Gabor frames for the four spaces L(R), l(Z), L([0, L]) and C. Some new results about general dual windows with respect to sampling and per...

In this study, we introduce a primal-dual prediction-correction algorithm framework for convex optimization problems with known saddle-point structure. Our unified frame adds the proximal term with a positive definite weighting matrix. Moreover, different proximal parameters in the frame can derive some existing well-known algorithms and yield a class of new primal-dual schemes. We prove the co...

We say that a Hausdorff locale is compactly generated if it is the colimit of the diagram of its compact sublocales connected by inclusions. We show that this is the case if and only if the natural map of its frame of opens into the second Lawson dual is an isomorphism. More generally, for any Hausdorff locale, the second dual of the frame of opens gives the frame of opens of the colimit. In or...

Frame theory is closely intertwined with signal processing by providing a canon of methodologies for the analysis of signals using (redundant) linear measurements. The dual frame associated with a frame then provides a means for reconstruction by a least squares approach. The novel paradigm of sparsity entered this area lately in various ways. Of those, in this survey paper, we will focus on th...

In this study, the progressive collapse potential of seismically designed steel plate shear wall (SPSW) systems is investigated using the alternate path method, and their performances are compared with those of the conventional special moment frame (SMF) systems. Nonlinear static and dynamic analyses are conducted to follow the progressive collapse of the structures, and their ability of absorb...

BACKGROUND In Australia telephone surveys have been the method of choice for ongoing jurisdictional population health surveys. Although it was estimated in 2011 that nearly 20% of the Australian population were mobile-only phone users, the inclusion of mobile phone numbers into these existing landline population health surveys has not occurred. This paper describes the methods used for the incl...
