Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communication is a key feature of 5G, yet achieving its strict one-way latency target remains challenging in real-world deployments. While previous work proposes latency reduction techniques, most are theoretical or simulation-ba ...
This special issue focuses on the seismic performance of adjacent interacting masonry structures, particularly in historical European city centers. The AIMS project provided unique data on interacting masonry structures through large-scale shake table test ...
Reinforced concrete walls provide effective bracing against seismic lateral loading for buildings worldwide. In Latin America, seismic design provisions commonly adhere to the ACI 318 building code, which is predominantly based on United States constructio ...
The absolute branching fraction of the decay Lambda(c)(2625)(+) -> Lambda(+)(c)pi(+)pi(-) is measured for the first time to be (50.2 +/- 5.7(stat) +/- 3.5(syst))% with 368.48 pb(-1) of e(+)e(-) collision data collected by the BESIII detector at the center- ...
Snow slab avalanches release after the failure and collapse of a weak layer buried below a cohesive snow slab. The initial failure is induced by local overloading of the slab, such that the passage of a skier. This results in the propagation of a subsidenc ...
Injection-induced aseismic slip plays an important role in a broad range of human-made and natural systems, from the exploitation of geo-resources to the understanding of earthquakes. Recent studies have shed light on how aseismic slip propagates in respon ...
This paper provides a simplified tool for preliminary seismic assessment of the out-of-plane behavior of non-structural walls, such as unreinforced masonry partition walls, based on non-linear time-history analyses. The studies are performed using equivale ...
The seismic assessment of existing steel structures necessitates the development of practice- oriented engineering models for use in nonlinear static and dynamic analysis procedures. These models should encompass the full range of the anticipated nonlinear ...
We experimentally demonstrate the coherent propagation of magnon polarons, the hybridized excitations formed by the coupling of spin waves and Rayleigh/Love surface acoustic waves, in a heterostructure consisting of ferroelectric BaTiO3 and ferromagnetic L ...
Context. Asteroseismology experienced a breakthrough in the last two decades thanks to the so-called photometry revolution with space-based missions such as CoRoT, Kepler, and TESS. Because asteroseismic modelling will be part of the pipeline of the future ...
Numerical simulations have become an indispensable tool in astrophysics and cosmology. The constant need for higher accuracy, higher resolutions, and models of
ever-increasing sophistication and complexity drives the development of modern tools
which targe ...
