The node-based smoothed finite element method (NS-FEM) is shortly presented for calculations of the static and seismic bearing capacities of shallow strip footings.A series of computations has been performed to assess variations in seismic bearing capacity factors with both horizontal and vertical seismic accelerations.Numerical results obtained ag
Abstract The objective of this study is to effectively mitigate the cascading propagation of collaborative innovation risks within industrial clusters and bolster the stability of their innovation networks.Drawing upon the cascade failure theory in complex networks, we employ the BA scale-free network Blankets model to construct an industrial clust
Canines contribute significantly to the esthetic and chewing functions.Orthodontists should diagnose canine ectopic eruption early, trying to prevent retention of these teeth.Its multifactorial Drawing etiology involves general and local factors and the correct diagnosis depends on clinic, radiographic and/ or tomographic exams.Several therapeutic
Aims & Backgrounds: Urban management is one of the pivotal elements of urban life, which has wide-ranging challenges surrounding its approaches; so that, it is one of the major concerns of metropolitan cities and the city of Karaj as well.One of the approaches is the annexation of the peripheral regions of the city in order to strengthen integrated
Degeneration of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) plays a central role in age-related macular degeneration Olive Oil (AMD).Throughout life, RPE cells are challenged by a variety of cytotoxic stressors, some of which are cumulative with age and may ultimately contribute to drusen and lipofuscin accumulation.Stressors such as these continually dam
