Investigating the dynamic response patterns and failure modes of concrete gravity dams subjected to strong earthquakes is a pivotal area of research for addressing seismic safety concerns associated with gravity dam structures.Dynamic shaking table testing has proven to be a robust methodology for exploring the dynamic characteristics and failure m
This study investigates how and when general self-efficacy is related to entrepreneurial intentions.We propose that entrepreneurial outcome expectations function as a mediator in this relationship, wd ultrastar dc hc530 while subjective norms act as a moderator.Using a sample of 1052 students from U.S.Public Universities, we tested a moderated medi
Abstract Background This study aimed to assess the ice cubes chocolate blue wrapper feasibility and acceptability of an oral health self-care e-learning intervention for overseas workers as well as the research procedures for a future controlled trial.Methods We randomly allocated participants to either the intervention (n = 48) or control (n = 51)
Top-down observational constraints on emissions flux estimates from satellite observations of chemical composition are subject to biases and errors stemming from transport, chemistry and prior emissions estimates.In this context, we developed an ensemble data assimilation brown paper napkin system to optimize the initial conditions for carbon monox
Studies on the application of the lead rubber bearing (LRB) isolation system to nuclear power plants are being carried out as one of the measures to improve seismic performance.Nuclear power plants with isolation systems require seismic probabilistic safety assessments, for which the seismic fragility of the structures, systems, and components need
