we report here a rare case of lateral ectopia of thyroid without orthotopic thyroid tissue in an indian teenager, who was referred to our department for a thyroid scintigraphy. technetium pertechnetate (99mtco4- ) scan showed uptake in laterally placed soft tissue structure along with functioning thyroid tissue in high anterior midline neck region in line with thyroglossal tract. there is no up...

Abstract In recent years, the tuned mass damper inerter (TMDI) has been demonstrated in several theoretical studies to be an effective vibration absorber for seismic protection of non-isolated buildings. Its effectiveness relies on careful tuning TMDI stiffness and damping properties, while its performance improves with increase inertance property which is readily scalable. Nevertheless, all pr...

With the introduction of energy-efficient buildings, importance embodied energy in new buildings has become increasingly relevant to minimising impact climate change. This study compares two existing four-storey residential buildings: one building a reinforced concrete (RC) structure and other timber structure. The study’s aim is find out which components are responsible for largest impacts whe...

Abstract In this research, an attempt has been made to evaluate the structural response of multi‐storey composite modular buildings when subjected lateral wind loads. Finite element (FE) models were developed in Abaqus for a general 10 storey building, with and without consideration load resisting mechanisms shear walls. Concrete filled steel tubular (CFST) columns walls proposed place conventi...

the concept of soft sets, introduced by molodtsov [20] is a mathematicaltool for dealing with uncertainties, that is free from the difficultiesthat have troubled the traditional theoretical approaches. in this paper, weapply the notion of the soft sets of molodtsov to the theory of hilbert algebras.the notion of soft hilbert (abysmal and deductive) algebras, soft subalgebras,soft abysms and sof...
