[EN] This paper presents an experimental study on demountable shear connectors in profiled composite slabs. Overall, three groups of push-off tests were conducted to assess the shear capacity, stiffness and ductility of ...
Person recognition using facial features, e.g., mug-shot images, has long been used in identity documents. However, due to the widespread use of web-cams and mobile devices embedded with a camera, it is now possible to ...
Smyth, M.B.; Webster, J.(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2002-10-01)
[EN] Finite approximation of spaces by inverse sequences of graphs (in the category of so-called topological graphs) was introduced by Smyth, and developed further. The idea was subsequently taken up by Kopperman and Wilson, ...
[EN] In order to explore the possibility of adding new functions to preexisting genes, we considered a framework of riboregulation. We created a new riboregulator consisting of the reverse complement of a known riboregulator. ...
