This paper presents a simple displacement-based seismic design method for RC frames with steel damper column. As numerical example, two 10-story frame building models are shown. The results of nonlinear time-history analysis show that the peak displacement at equivalent height is close to target displacement. strength demand beam ends connected columns, and beam-damper column joints, calculated...

We present a theory of finite frames for subspaces of C N. The definition of a subspace frame is given and results analogous to those from frame theory for C N are proven.

A frame $L$ is called {it coz-dense} if $Sigma_{coz(alpha)}=emptyset$ implies $alpha=mathbf 0$. Let $mathcal RL$ be the ring of real-valued continuous functions on a coz-dense and completely regular frame $L$. We present a description of the socle of the ring $mathcal RL$ based on minimal ideals of $mathcal RL$ and zero sets in pointfree topology. We show that socle of $mathcal RL$ is an essent...

Video abstraction allows searching, browsing and evaluating videos only by accessing the useful contents. Most of the studies are using pixel domain, which requires the decoding process and needs more time and process consuming than compressed domain video abstraction. In this paper, we present a new video abstraction method in H.264/AVC compressed domain, AVAIF. The method is based on the norm...

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...

It is considered the electromagnetic wave in the frame moving transverse to the wave. Due to the velocity of the frame with respect to a preferred reference frame the oscillations of phase arise. The oscillations of phase yield the third order effect which can be seen in the Michelson-Morley experiment. The effect due to the velocity of the earth with respect to CMB is in agreement with the ani...

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 ‎...
