In present study, the effects of optimization on seismic energy spectra including input energy, damping energy and yielding hysteretic energy are parametrically discussed. To this end, 12 generic steel moment-resisting frames having fundamental periods ranging from 0.3 to 3s are optimized by using uniform damage and deformation approaches subjected to a series of 40 non-pule strong ground motio...

introduction the gamma knife system is designed solely for non-invasive treatment of brain disorders, and it benefits from stereotactic surgical techniques. dose calculations required in the system are performed by gammaplan code; in this code, brain tissue is considered uniform. in the present study, we evaluated the effect of gamma knife system on the obtained dose through simulating a real h...

At the moment, Moshanir loading code which has been provided by Tavanir Company in 1998 is used for loading transmission line towers. Also ASCE52 are applied for designing these structures. In the above Moshanir loading code, loading parameters such as, maximum yearly ice thickness, maximum monthly ice thickness, maximum yearly wind speed and maximum monthly wind speed have been considered as ...

Using an adapted analysis grid, this paper presents a new reading of the concepts underlying the mobile code/agent technology by proposing a decomposition of the paradigms related to remote-code execution into three categories: remote-code calling, remote code-loading and mobile code. Models resulting from this decomposition are specified and implemented using a uniform execution system. A dist...
