Although studies on RC beams under shear have a history record of more than 100 years, many important&#10issues in this context still remain that have evaded attention. The aim of the current study is to study a number of these less investigated aspects of the behavior of RC beams under shear. For this purpose, and based on the modified compression field theory, a computer program has been writ...

In this paper, a method of low power analog testing is proposed. In spite of having Oscillation Based Built in Self-Test methodology (OBIST), a look up table based (LUT) low power testing approach has been proposed to find out the faulty circuit and also to sort out the particular fault location in the circuit. In this paper an operational amplifier, which is the basic building block in the ana...

aim and background:   one of interventional procedure in pain specialty is stellate ganglion block. in this study we tried to show more on the sonoanatomy of the area, including the diameter of longus coli muscle and the distance between sixth cervical transverse process and the surface of skin. obviously, understanding different anatomical locations can help to more successful block and avoid ...

The linear Ninetyeast Ridge (NER) is the longest oceanic intraplate volcanic edifice and main feature in Eastern Indian Ocean. Many seamounts are located on ridge, whose origin age remain unclear due to lack of samples bedrock which they composed. Carbonate sedimentary caps these prevent their direct geological sampling by dredging, therefore indirect geophysical methods an alternative. Such in...

extension of inter-turn fault in windings of pmsm can damage all parts of electrical systems, and in some cases in sensitive applications may lead to irreparable events. identification of such small faults at incipient steps can be so helpful to protect entire part of electrical system. in this paper, intelligent protection system is designed which is made by two major parts. in the first part ...

the sangbast-shandiz fault zone, with a length of about 57 km, a width of moderately 2 km, and a nw-se direction, is located about 15 km in the west of mashhad city. that is one of the major faults in the binalud mountains. geomorphic evidences illustrate that the sangbast-shandiz fault zone has dextral strike- slip offsets with thrust activity. in this article, we investigated geomorphic featu...

an attempt has been made to explore the general trends in the seismic response of planasymmetric structures when subjected to near-fault and far-fault ground motions. systems with structural wall elements in both orthogonal directions considering actual and common nonlinear behavior under bi-directional excitation were studied. idealized single-storey models with uni-axial eccentricity were emp...
