One of the primary purposes of forest fire research is to predict crisis situations and, also, to optimize rescue operations during forest fires.The research results presented in this paper provide a model of Cross-Country Mobility (CCM) of fire brigades in forest areas before or during a fire.In order to develop a methodology of rescue vehicle mob
This study presents the shaking table test results of two-dimensional reinforced concrete (RC) Notebook frames retrofitted with a simplified friction damped brace.An easy-to-manufacture and install friction damper with economical design, was proposed and tested under reversed cyclic loading and used to retrofit RC frames.The splice of a conventiona
In an effort to further extend bearing life, the authors have attempted to acquire greater knowledge regarding lubricating grease behavior in a bearing.While conducting experiments, some kinds of difficulties commonly arise when attempting to observe grease behavior directly from the bearing exterior without removing seals and shields.Making a brea
Kinetic parameter identification in Notebook the dynamic metabolic model of Escherichia coli (E.coli) has become important and is needed to obtain appropriate metabolite and enzyme data that are valid under in vivo conditions.The dynamic metabolic model under study represents five metabolic pathways with more than 170 kinetic parameters at steady s
