Abstract:
As urban population is expanding constantly, the construction of edifices on the earthquake active area is also increasing. Due to aesthetic appearance, most of the edifices in the present era are asymmetric in nature. But when symmetric edifices are subjected to earthquake, their behaviors are not complex as compared to asymmetric edifices. Hence, for safety purpose, there is need to study the complex behavior of asymmetric edifices by conducting performance evaluation. In the present study, the performance evaluation of four RC edifices is done using N2 method. An effort is made to calculate

Abstract:
Pyramid Mountain is a subglacial volcano in Wells Gray Provincial Park in east-central British Columbia. Landslides deform the north and east flanks of the volcano. Field strength testing and rock mass classification designate the hyaloclastite breccia in which the landslides originated as a weak, massive rock mass: uniaxial compressive strengths (UCS) range from 24 to 35 MPa, and geologic strength index (GSI) and rock mass rating (RMR) values are 60–70. The shear strength of fracture surfaces in the hyaloclastite breccia, as measured by laboratory direct shear tests, can be characterized by a

Abstract:
The Itasy Volcanic Field (IVF) is a monogenetic volcanic field located in the central highlands of Madagascar and is characterized by numerous volcanic cones displaying various geomorphological landforms. The IVF was a result of Pliocene to Quaternary volcanic eruptions and mainly composed of basaltic volcanic cones and trachyte domes. This paper aims to describe and to establish a geomorphological classification of basaltic volcanic cones within the IVF, based on their morphometric characteristics such as shape and diameter of the cone base; slope of the flanks of the edifice, and height of t

Abstract:
Two cult structures from Mycenae and from a sanctuary recently discovered at Phylakopi, on the island of Melos, shed a new light on the sacred architecture of the Aegean at the close of the Bronze Age. This paper suggests that the edifices of both these sites should be classified as popular places of worship. This suggestion is based on their location, layout and size as well as on their foreign architectural affinities. The Phylakopi sanctuary, located against the fortification wall of the town, consists of a major temple to which a subsidiary shrine is attached. The pair of adjacent structur

Although a high degree of variance is often observed in rate measurements, little is understood about the statistical characteristics of weathering rate distributions. This preliminary study demonstrates that the weathering rates of limestone, determined from measurements of an ancient eroded limestone edifice, can exhibit highly non-Gaussian behavior.

In this paper, I analyze the animated television series Puella Magi Madoka Magica based on a variety of literary critical methods: neo-noir criticism, feminist epistemology and studies of technoscience, and discussion of utopia/dystopia imagination. My focus is on the depiction of desire and hope, as two interconnected but potentially conflicting concepts, in Madoka Magica which presents different philosophical edifices related to them as one central narrative tension. On the other hand, the feminist methods I utilize will demonstrate how the “genre subversion” the series introduce can be read

Abstract. We simulate the deformation of Somma-Vesuvius volcano due to some overpressure sources by means of a finite element 3D code. The main goal of these simulations is to investigate the influence of topography and structural heterogeneity on ground deformation. In our model the sources of deformation are embedded in an elastic linear isotropic medium and located at various depths. Geometry (shape and lateral extension) of the sources is mainly constrained by the results coming from recent seismic tomography studies. The structural heterogeneity has been modelled in terms of dynamic elast

I metodi statici non lineari non sempre sono efficaci nella verifica di strutture asimmetriche a piu' piani, a causa degli errori commessi nella valutazione della rotazione di impalcato. Per superare questi limiti, alcuni autori (Bosco, Ferrara, Ghersi, Marino: 2009-2012) hanno recentemente proposto l'uso di due analisi statiche non lineari, caratterizzate da forze laterali applicate in differenti punti dell'impalcato. Per ciascuna delle due analisi, la distanza tra il punto di applicazione del carico laterale e del centro di massa dell'impalcato (eccentricita' correttiva) e' fornita da

Abstract More than 1700 km of high-resolution seismic data were collected over the Marion Plateau, northeast Australia, to investigate the influence of sea level and oceanography on subtropical carbonate platforms growing on the plateau surface. Seismic data, interpreted in combination with sediments recovered during Ocean Drilling Program Leg 194 and modern oceanographic data, have enabled characterization of the parameters controlling platform growth and development in this region.

Abstract:
Jomo Kenyatta, who held a PhD in Anthropology from the London School of Economics, became the first president of Kenya. Kenyatta successfully employed his knowledge of anthropology – the so-called ‘handmaiden of colonialism’ – against a colonial regime, using that knowledge to pinpoint British political weaknesses, unify the Kikuyu and other tribes of Kenya, and construct an ethnographic Trojan Horse that undermined the British edifice upon which colonial law had been built. On the other side, the British counterinsurgency against the Mau Mau also utilized anthropology, both in theory and in p
