In countries of low to moderate seismicity, such as Switzerland, unreinforced masonry (URM) is mainly used in residential buildings due to its good insulation capacity and fire resistance along with a fair compressive strength. URM walls however show a lim ...

This research presents a mathematical formulation for optimizing integration of complex industrial systems from the level of unit operations to processes, entire plants, and finally to considering industrial symbiosis opportunities between plants. The fram ...

This paper focuses on modelling of structural response of RC cantilever beams retrofitted with a thin layer of Ultra High Performance Fibre Reinforced cement-based Composite (UHPFRC). The complex cracking phenomenon of the resulting RC-UHPFRC composite sys ...

The regulation of several processes inside and outside the cell depends on the action of a particular class of enzymes, called allosteric. In allosteric macromolecules, binding a ligand at one site affects the binding activity at a distal functional site, ...

In the context of process and product design, predictive models are increasingly employed. Decomposition properties of chemicals may be experimentally determined through calorimetric measurements, and a few molecular structure-based models- which correlate ...

Timber-Concrete Composite (TCC) structures allow taking synergistic advantage of the properties of both materials to optimize the overall performances in terms of lightness, slenderness, acoustic insulation, vibrational behaviour and environmental footprin ...

This work shows how one can probe the micromechanical strength of ceramic reinforcements used in metal matrix composites, which greatly influences the mechanical performance of the composite material yet has seldom been quantified with precision. More spec ...

For decades mathematical modeling in epidemiology has helped understanding the dynamics of infectious diseases, as well as describe possible intervention scenarios to prevent and control them. However, such models were relying on several assumptions, such ...

Identifying protein-protein interactions is crucial for a systems-level understanding of the cell. Recently, algorithms based on inverse statistical physics, e.g., direct coupling analysis (DCA), have allowed to use evolutionarily related sequences to addr ...

Performance-based earthquake engineering requires numerical models that are able to reliably predict the expected component behavior of buildings under seismic excitations. The nonlinear modeling guidelines provided in ASCE-41-13 have historically been use ...

Efficiently querying multiple spatial data sets is a growing challenge for scientists. Astronomers query data sets that contain different types of stars (e.g., dwarfs, giants, stragglers) while neuroscientists query different data sets that model different ...

We implement the C-shaped sample test method and micro-cantilever beam testing to measure the local strength of microscopic, low-aspect-ratio ceramic particles, namely high purity vapor grown a-alumina Sumicorundum (R) particles 15-30 mu m in diameter, kno ...

Certain flows denominated as amplifiers arc characterized by their global linear stability while showing large linear amplifications to sustained perturbations. As the forcing amplitude increases, a strong saturation of the response appears when compared t ...

Motivation: Unbiased clustering methods are needed to analyze growing numbers of complex data sets. Currently available clustering methods often depend on parameters that are set by the user, they lack stability, and are not applicable to small data sets. ...
