Substructuring in the finite element method is a technique that reduces computational cost and memory usage for analysis of complex structures. The efficiency of this technique depends on the number of substructures in different problems. Some subdivisions increase computational cost, but require little memory usage and vice versa. In the present study, the cost functions of computations and me...

UNLABELLED TRFolder-W is a web server capable of predicting core structures of telomerase RNA (TR) in yeast genomes. TRFolder is a command-line Python toolkit for TR-specific structure prediction. We developed a web-version built on the django web framework, leveraging the work done previously, to include enhancements to increase flexibility of usage. To date, there are five core sub-structures...

Dynamic web service invocation without special client software may help the adoption of service-oriented architectures on the consumer stage. Ad-hoc usage of services requires a powerful set of concepts to visualise the service input and output messages in a user-friendly, ergonomic and extensible way. Such concepts are collected in a research effort named Web Service Graphical User Interface a...

in this study, first energy absorption of axial and bending loading is considered. next, thin walled structures under oblique loading are investigated using abaqus computer simulation, where 180 different cases are simulated. simulation results of the thin walled structures under oblique loading were compared with the experimental results of nagel, and good agreement was perceived. simulation r...

Systems development is a very complex process, which requires disciplined methodological approaches. While there are many arguments underpinning the use of systems development methodologies empirical investigations show that methodologies are underused in practice and what is more their use is not on the increase. In this paper we discuss the usage of agile methodologies which tend to be more p...

The design of earthquake-resistant buildings starts with defining the maximum lateral earthquake forces or their resultant. The amount of these forces depends on various factors, including coefficient of system behavior which depends on overstrength and its ductility. In this study, a method is presented for designing an earthquake-resistant system in which the distribution of lateral forces is...
