Individual and Combined Effects of Lead Rubber Bearing and Fluid Viscous Damper Techniques on Seismic Response of Irregular Reinforced Concrete Buildings
Abstract: Most old structures that do not meet current seismic regulations may sustain significant damage or perhaps collapse as a result of an earthquake. The seismic enhancement could potentially help people survive a major earthquake. Since earthquake engineering began, not only in India but also in other nations, earthquake-resistant construction of reinforced concrete buildings has been a constant topic of research. Buildings are still being damaged as a result of earthquakes. …

Dynamic Behaviour of Steel-Concrete Composite Bridge under Moving Loads
Abstract: Composite structure is a structure which is constructed using multiple dissimilar materials. The construction is called composite when two different types of materials are strongly bond together to act as a single unit. For a composite bridge deck a reinforced concrete slab is placed on the steel plate girder to form a complete structure. Use of composite structure has widely grown in the 21st century. This paper gives the brief …

Structured P2P multidimensional HyperCube system
Abstract: Peer-to-peer systems enable access to data spread over an extremely large number of machines. Today’s peer-to-peer systems are limited in scope in terms of data in multidimensional range. The project creates an ‘n’-dimensional hypecube p2p system which supports nodes with threads connecting them in a cube like structure. Each Node generates random character strings thus adding a data storage feature. Eventually it will look for retrieval and lookup of the …

MRF Computation to Identify Errors in Quantum Structures
Abstract: As the present trend move towards the construction of circuits using Nano scale devices, the probability rate of occurrence of errors in these devices are high. Therefore, detailed study is required to identify the possibility of errors in this nanoarchitectures. In this paper we propose two elegant methods namely Probabilistic based design methodology [1] and Markov random field approach [1] to identify the occurrence of errors. Any arbitrary logic circuits …

A Study on Method and Modelling of Structural Analysis and Finite Elements: A Review
Abstract: The finite element method (FEM) or finite element analysis (FEA), is a numerical method usually employed for solving engineering (structural mechanics) and mathematical physics problems. Generally, the analytical solution of these problems require the solution to boundary value problems for partial differential equations. Specimens are usually tested and analysed using finite element method (FEM) for investigating the behaviour of square concrete columns confined by fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) and sheets.
