Mid-story pin column system has been proposed to realize beam yielding mechanism of a steel moment-resisting frame. In this system, connection is applied inbetween the upper and lower RC extended from base control moment demands on both ends first story column. An exposed-type adopted as connected by single anchor bolt. Static cyclic horizontal loading tests partial frame consisting second floo...

A very low dimension frame-level motion descriptor is herein proposed with the capability to represent incomplete dynamics, thus allowing online action prediction. At each frame, a set of local trajectory kinematic cues are spatially pooled using covariance matrix. The matrices forms Riemannian manifold that describes patterns. statistic measures computed over this characterize sequence either ...

in this paper, a new method for determining position and orientation of a coordinate system using its image is presented. this coordinate system is a three dimensional non-orthogonal system in respect to the two dimensional and orthogonal camera coordinate system.  in real world, it’s exactly easy to select three directions on an object so that they don’t be orthogonal and on a plane. the image...

In MPEG video encoding, the next frame is encoded based on the previous frame. For forward replay of the video, extraction of data of the next frame from the current frame is a trivial process. However, for backward replay, it may not always be possible to extract data of the next (previous) frame completely from the currently displayed frame. In this paper, we propose a method for extracting u...

Since its definition by McCarthy in 1969, the Frame Problem (FP) has been one of the more heavily debated problems in AI. Part of the debate has been on the exact definition of what the FP really is. The computational aspect of the FP can be thought of as reasoning about what changes and what doesn’t change in a dynamic world. The “sleeping dog strategy” is considered to be a viable solution to...

Many railway companies in Europe operate periodic timetables. Yet, most timetables are not entirely periodic but have a mixture of different periodicity and many exceptions to cope with changing demand. Current approaches for automatic timetable generation are not able to deal with such partially periodic structure, but consider only fully periodic inputs. We therefore introduce the periodic Se...

Generalized atrophic benign epidermolysis bullosa is an autosomal recessive subepidermal blistering disease typified by null mutations in COL17A1. In 1 large kindred, affected individuals were homozygous for a 2-bp deletion in COL17A1, 4003delTC, which resulted in a downstream premature termination codon, nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, and abrogation of type XVII collagen synthesis. Interestingl...

let $l$ be a completely regular frame and $mathcal{r}l$ be the ‎ring of continuous real-valued functions on $l$‎. ‎we show that the‎ ‎lattice $zid(mathcal{r}l)$ of $z$-ideals of $mathcal{r}l$ is a‎ ‎normal coherent yosida frame‎, ‎which extends the corresponding $c(x)$‎ ‎result of mart'{i}nez and zenk‎. ‎this we do by exhibiting‎ ‎$zid(mathcal{r}l)$ as a quotient of $rad(mathcal{r}l)$‎, ‎the‎ ‎...

The IEEE 802.11n standard is defined to achieve a high throughput at the MAC layer. This high throughput is accomplished via many enhancements in both the physical and MAC layers. A key enhancement introduced in the 802.11n standard is frame aggregation. Two types of aggregation defined by the 802.11n standard, aggregate MAC service data unit (A-MSDU) and aggregate MAC protocol data unit (A-MPD...
