A review of previous studies shows that there are two general views on how to determine demand in structures through incremental nonlinear static analysis. In the first view, multi-modal methods are used to determine demand in structures. In this view, the applied load pattern is applied to the structure according to the shape of each vibration mode, assuming that the structure deformation foll...

Analyses of multi-armed bandits primarily presume that the value of an arm is its expected reward. We introduce a theory for multi-armed bandits where the values are the modes of the reward distributions.

in this paper, we present a genetic algorithm (ga) for optimization of a multi-mode resource constrained time cost trade off (mrctct) problem. the proposed ga, each activity has several operational modes and each mode identifies a possible executive time and cost of the activity. beyond earlier studies on time-cost trade-off problem, in mrctct problem, resource requirements of each execution mo...

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is a powerful technique that can be used to detect small changes in electrochemical systems and subsequently identify the source of change. While promising, analysis often non-intuitive time-consuming, where collection times single EIS spectrum reach several minutes. To circumvent long associated with traditional measurements, multi-sine was proposed...
