An experimental study is conducted on three ½ scales, single-story, single-bay, frame specimens. The first specimen was a reinforced concrete frame with solid-brick infill. The second specimen was a reinforced concrete frame with hollow clay perforated-brick infill. The last specimen was a reinforced concrete frame without any infill. These three specimens were tested by pseudostatic method. Di...

Recent measurements of packet networks have shown that packet tra c exhibits long-range-dependent property. Studies have also discovered that this property is not adequately captured by the conventional Markov tra c models and often yields queueing behavior such as heavy-tailed or subexponential queue length distribution. These ndings have led to the implication that long-range-dependent tra c ...

In summary, consistency between the inertial-frame and comoving-frame equations requires that all O(v/c) terms be retained in both gas-energy equations, in the radiation energy equation, and in the transformation laws between frames [see also (P4)]. In contrast, all O(v/c) terms can be omitted from the radiation momentum equation without loss of consistency. Finally, consider the inertial-frame...

An efficient disparity estimation algorithm for multi-view video sequences, recorded by a two-dimensional camera array in which the cameras are spaced equidistantly, is presented. Because of the strong geometrical relationship among views, the disparity vectors of a certain view can for most blocks be derived from the disparity vectors of other views. A frame constructed using that idea is call...

The standard reference frame for a camera C is a right-handed Cartesian frame with its origin at the center of projection of C, its positive Z axis pointing towards the scene along the optical axis of the lens, and itsX axis pointing to the right1 along the rows of the camera sensor. As a consequence, the Y axis points downwards along the columns of the sensor. Coordinates in the standard refer...

Classically, a Tychonoff space is called strongly 0-dimensional if its Stone-Čech compactification is 0-dimensional, and given the familiar relationship between spaces and frames it is then natural to call a completely regular frame strongly 0-dimensional if its compact completely regular coreflection is 0-dimensional (meaning: is generated by its complemented elements). Indeed, it is then seen...

This paper deals with continuous frames and continuous Riesz bases. We introduce continuous Riesz bases and give some equivalent conditions for a continuous frame to be a continuous Riesz basis. It is certainly possible for a continuous frame to have only one dual. Such a continuous frame is called a Riesz-type frame [13]. We show that a continuous frame is Riesz-type if and only if it is a con...
