RISDiscussion of “<i>Mathematical Programming in Structural Design</i>” by Scott A. Burns and Subramanian Ramamurthy (July, 1983)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Improper Detailing Results in Delayed Commissioning
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A 144 m × 60 m factory building (which is the largest span in India using cold-formed steel sections) was constructed at Cochin, India. The building is made up of portal frames spanning 60 m and placed at 6 m intervals. ...
Restoration of Cold Storage Factory Building
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper deals with the renovation of a factory building in Nellore, India. The plan dimensions of this building are 25.7 × 52.5 m. It has concrete columns and the roof is made up of Pratt trusses with hot-rolled steel ...
Improved Molecular Model of a Peptide Unit for Proteins
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: (1951, “ The Structure of Proteins: Two Hydrogen-Bonded Helical Configurations of the Polypeptide Chain,” Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 37(4), pp. 205–211) in their seminal paper in 1951 reported ...
Residue Level Inverse Kinematics of Peptide Chains in the Presence of Observation Inaccuracies and Bond Length Changes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The process of calculating the dihedral angles of a peptide chain from atom coordinates in the chain is called residue level inverse kinematics. The uncertainties and experimental observation ...
Aesthetic Appraisal of Antenna Towers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The very rapid increases in telecommunication and advancements in the field of communications technology have resulted in many different structures to support antennae. Exponential growth in cellular telephone networks has ...
Horizontal Thrust in Vertically Curved Reinforced Concrete Beams
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study was conducted to investigate the horizontal thrust of vertically curved reinforced concrete (VCRC) beams. The middle portion of beam is curved like an arch; such beams are said to be vertically curved beams. In ...
Consensus Protocol Design for Leader-Following Multi-Agent Systems With Stochastic Sampling Information
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper studies a consensus protocol design for leader-following multi-agent systems (MASs) via stochastic sampling information. Unlike traditional sampled-data control, this paper is focused on the stochastically varying ...
Coupled Instabilities of Lateral Torsional Buckling and Shear Buckling of Singly Symmetric Steel I-Girders: Experimental and Numerical Investigations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper investigates the potential to extend current design limits for transverse stiffener spacing and effective lateral unbraced lengths through experimental and numerical studies. The focus here is on noncompact and ...
Anisotropic Diffusion and the Emergence of Instabilities and Self-Organized Pattern Formation in Spatiotemporal Epidemic Dynamics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Abstract. Diffusive epidemic dynamics is typically studied assuming uniform disease spread, which is represented by isotropic diffusion operators in partial differential equation (PDE) models. However, anisotropic diffusion ...
