Investigations of plastic deformation and yielding amorphous solids reveal a strong dependence their behavior on the degree annealing. Above threshold annealing, nature changes qualitatively, becoming progressively more discontinuous. Theoretical investigations in have almost exclusively focused uniform deformation, but cyclic reveals intriguing features that remain uninvestigated. Focusing ath...

Electrocardiography (ECG) may be used to recognize cardiac disorders. Levels of milk production may change the serum electrolytes which its imbalance has a role in cardiac arrhythmia. Fifty high yielding and fifty low yielding Holstein dairy cows were used in this study. Electrocardiography was recorded by base-apex lead and blood samples were collected from jugular vein for measurement of seru...

Using induction heat (IH) treatment to locally transform one half of a steel brace section high-strength as well inducing intentional eccentricity along the length has been experimentally proven increase limited post-yielding stiffness exhibited by conventional braces. This paper develops multi-level seismic design method for intentionally eccentric IH-treated braced frames (IH-FIEB) support th...
