In this paper, the performance of multiple tuned liquid damper (MTLD) has been investigated in mitigating the response of a structure under dynamic loading, i.e., harmonic excitation. For comparative study, th...
Future Internet technologies and the deployment of mobile and nomadic services enable complex communications networks, that have a highly dynamic behavior. This naturally engenders route-discovery problems und...
This paper presents the effect of reinforced high performance concrete (HPC) in exterior beam-column joint with and without fibre under monotonic loading. In this experimental investigation, cross-diagonal bar...
11C–choline PET/CT is a widely-used tool for the diagnostic of prostate cancer (PCa). In literature, a great variability of local relapse (LR) detection rate is reported. The aim of this study is to provide po...
