the effect of welding residual stresses that was created in thin infill plate of steel plate shear wall system during constructional processes was studied in this research. residual stresses in a welded structure is the result of the non-uniform expansion and contraction and plastic deformation of the weld and surrounding base metal due to heating and cooling cycle, during welding process, this...

Hij = K ·Rij ·K−1. Here Rij denotes a column-wise permutation of R, shuffling the columns i and j to be column 1 and 2. 1.1. Computing y4 from y1, y2 and y3 Let a be a known aspect ratio defined as w/h, where h is the height and w the width of the front wall in the physical world (we know these dimensions from the rental site). Then, given two corner points p1 and p2 of a wall, defined by the t...

To determine the spinal innervation and neuronal connections is important for studying gastric carbohydrate metabolism and motor responses. Neurons involved in the efferent control of the stomach were identified following visualization of pseudorabies virus (PRV)-614 retrograde tracing. PRV-614 was injected into the ventral stomach wall in 13 adult C57BL/6J strain male mice. On the fifth day po...

Starting with a novel definition of divided differences, this essay derives and discusses the basic properties of, and facts about, (univariate) divided differences. “It belongs to the most beautiful I have been able to do.”[Newton 1676]

In the prophetic words of Abraham Lincoln in addressing the antebellum Nation, " A house divided against itself cannot stand. " As physicians, we too live in a house divided. We factionalize along lines of specialty, practice size, practice location, ethnicity, etc. As emergency physicians, we are among the most egregious in splintering the House of Medicine. We have subdivided our small young ...

When analyses of mixtures of small molecules are carried out at mobile phase velocities close to (for isocratic runs) or somewhat above (for gradient runs) the optimum velocity, the eddy diffusion term contributes to at least 75% of the band broadening. Future improvements in column performance may come only from a reduction of the eddy diffusion term. The classical models of axial dispersion o...
