In the past decade, ambient vibration measurements found numerous applications on unstable rock slopes and developed into a powerful tool for site characterization of slope instabilities. this study, first time were applied to mass strongly disturbed damaged by subsurface explosions. The above ammunition storage chamber at Mitholz (Switzerland) is especially interesting because geology below se...

Single-column elevated station structures are irregular with long-span cantilever beams and individual pier columns in the transverse section. The uneven mass stiffness horizontal vertical planes necessitate research on seismic performance of these structures. This study performed a nonlinear response-history analysis (NRHA) single-column structure using finite element program MSC.MARC analysed...

On 24 August 2016, a Mw 6.0 earthquake started damaging seismic sequence in central Italy. The historical center of Amatrice village reached the XI degree (MCS scale) but high vulnerability alone could not explain heavy damage. Unfortunately, at time only AMT station, 200 m away from downtown, recorded mainshock, whereas tens temporary stations were installed afterwards. We propose method to si...

We study a dynamic allocation problem that arises in various scenarios where mobile clients joining and leaving the system have to communicate with static stations via radio transmissions. Restrictions are a maximum delay, or laxity, between consecutive client transmissions and a maximum bandwidth that a station can share among its clients. We study the problem of assigning clients to stations ...

Accurate measurements of global solar radiation, atmospheric temperature and relative humidity, as well as the availability of the predictions of their evolution over time, are important for different areas of applications, such as agriculture, renewable energy and energy management, or thermal comfort in buildings. For this reason, an intelligent, light-weight, self-powered and portable sensor...

background: trastuzumab (herceptin) is a humanized monoclonal antibody (mab) which is used for specific treatment of metastatic breast cancer in patients with overexpression of her2/neu receptor. in this study, we have attempted to develop a biosimilar version of trastuzumab mab. methods: according to in silico studies, the heavy and light chains of trastuzumab mab were designed and constructed...
