For the problem of analysis of earthquake response of cable-stayed tower bridge, the foundation is given as the rigid consolidation, do not consider the interaction of soil and structure, the finite element software ABAQUS is used for seismic response analysis. Taking the TCU052 and EI Centro wave which have different characteristics as the input of bridge tower, first to carry out the modal analysis of bridge tower structure, get various order of modal frequency of the bridge tower, then analyses the displacement response of the top of bridge tower in the bridge direction, the results showed that, under the pulse type seismic action the displacement response of bridge tower of large span cable-stayed bridge are increased.

Different Characteristics

SummaryAntithrombin activity has been identified in intact washed human platelets. An apparent activity was demonstrated at platelet concentrations above 0.31 × 109/ml, when platelet suspensions were incubated with 2.0 NIH units/ml of thrombin. Neither red cells nor white cells revealed antithrombin activity. No significant loss of the platelet antithrombin activity was observed after ten successive washings or after treatment of platelets with antibodies to antithrombin III or α2-macroglobulin. Almost the same amount of antithrombin activity as normal platelets was demonstrated in the platelets from an afibrinogenemic patient. Pre-treatment of platelets with trypsin, papain, and neuroaminidase reduced the activity significantly, whereas lipase was without effect. The platelet antithrombin reacted with thrombin in less than 3 seconds, and this rapid reaction of platelet antithrombin was different from that of plasma antithrombin III or fibrinogen. The thrombin-like clotting activity of ancrod was inhibited by fibrinogen but not platelets. Also, unlike plasma antithrombin III or fibrinogen, brief exposure to heat (56° C or 60° C) reduced considerable amounts of platelet antithrombin activity. These results suggest that platelets possess a specific antithrombin with different characteristics from other known antithrombins.

Different Characteristics

Due to the different characteristics of the piece goods (e.g. size and weight), they are transported in general cargo warehouses by manually-operated industrial trucks such as forklifts and pallet trucks. Since manual activities are susceptible to possible human error, errors occur in logistical processes in general cargo warehouses. This leads to incorrect loading, stacking and damage to storage equipment and general cargo. It would be possible to reduce costs arising from errors in logistical processes if these errors could be remedied in advance. This paper presents a monitoring procedure for logistical processes in manually-operated general cargo warehouses. This is where predictive analysis is applied. Seven steps are introduced with a view to integrating predictive analysis into the IT infrastructure of general cargo warehouses. These steps are described in detail. The CRISP4BigData model, the SVM data mining algorithm, the data mining tool R, the programming language C++ for the scoring in general cargo warehouses represent the results of this paper. After having created the system and installed it in general cargo warehouses, initial results obtained with this method over a certain time span will be compared with results obtained without this method through manual recording over the same period.

Different Characteristics

Flour of Anodonta woodiana meat may be added in the manufacture of food products such as granola bar. The aim of addition is to increase the nutritional value on snacks needed by children with special needs through fortification. This research method was done by making products granola bar in three formulas: without the addition of shells flour, the addition of 2.8 gram, and 5.6 gram. Granola bar were made for consumption by children (7-9 years old) and teenager (10-18 years old). Tests performed included organoleptic test. The results of organoleptic test between three formulas of produced granola bar have different characteristics in flavor parameter. The results of the analysis of parameters of color, aroma, and flavor tested by analysis of variance software showed that the most preferred formula is the second formula with the addition 2.8 gram of mussel meat flour. This granola bar snack is a healthy snack that is safe for consumption by children with special needs, because it is made from ingredients that do not contain flavorings, dyes and artificial preservatives.

Different Characteristics

Optimization is a process to search the most suitable solution for a problem within an acceptable time interval. The algorithms that solve the optimization problems are called as optimization algorithms. In the literature, there are many optimization algorithms with different characteristics. The optimization algorithms can exhibit different behaviors depending on the size, characteristics and complexity of the optimization problem. In this study, six well-known population based optimization algorithms (artificial algae algorithm - AAA, artificial bee colony algorithm - ABC, differential evolution algorithm - DE, genetic algorithm - GA, gravitational search algorithm - GSA and particle swarm optimization - PSO) were used. These six algorithms were performed on the CEC’17 test functions. According to the experimental results, the algorithms were compared and performances of the algorithms were evaluated.

The Impact

Abstract In this paper, an evaluation was tried for the impact of structural design on structural response. Several situations are foreseen as the possibilities of changing the distribution of the structural elements (sails, columns, etc.), the width of the structure and the number of floors indicates the adapted type of bracing for a given structure by referring only to its Geometric dimensions. This was done by studying the effect of the technical design of the building on the natural frequency of the structure with the study of the influence of the distribution of the structural elements on the seismic response of the building, taking into account of the requirements of the Moroccan earthquake regulations 2000/2011 and using the ANSYS APDL and Robot Structural Analysis software.

Ovarian Endometriomas

The objective: to study the prevalence of ovarian endometriosis in women of reproductive age, the features of clinical and ultrasound picture of endometriosis. Patients and methods. The study involved 22 patients with endometriomas, the control group – 50 women gynecological and somatically healthy. Results. The incidence of ovarian endometriomas in the structure of benign tumor-like formations of ovaries is 0.62%. In 72.73% of ovarian endometriomas occur on a background of concomitant gynecological pathology. Clinically, in 77.27% of cases there is a pain syndrome, in 59.09% – algomenorrhea, in 13.64% – infertility; 18.18% of cases endometriomas remain «dumb» and proceed with the erased clinical picture. Sonologically in patients with endometriomas adenomyosis, endometrial hyperplasia, changes in the contralateral ovary are determined. Conclusion. Without additional methods of diagnostic gynecological examination may identify the 3 cm tumor-like formation of the ovary with different characteristics, which does not allow to differentiate endometrioma from inflammation, functional and ovarian tumors. Ultrasound can diagnose pathological ovarian formation of 1 cm, detailing the nature of the cyst. Key words: endometriosis, reproductive age, retrospective analysis, ultrasound.
