The aim of the present paper is to study the lifts of a golden structure to tangent bundles of order r. We proved that r-lift of the golden structure F in the tangent bundle of order r is also a golden structure. We have also proved some theorems on the projection tensor in the tangent bundle of order r. Later we have established prolongations of G-structures immersed in the golden structure to the tangent bundle of order r and 2. Finally, we constructed few examples of the golden structure that admit an almost para contact structure on the tangent bundle of order 3 and 4.

Let M be a real hypersurface in a complex space form M_n(c), c ≠ 0. In this paper, we prove that if (∇_Xϕ)Y + (∇_Yϕ)X = 0 holds on M, then M is a Hopf hypersurface, where ϕ is the tangential projection of the complex structure of M_n(c). We characterize such Hopf hypersurfaces of M_n(c).

The evaluation of pressure fields acting on slender structures under wind loads is currently performed in experimental aerodynamic tests. For wind-sensitive structures, in fact, the knowledge of global and local wind actions is crucial for design purpose. This paper considers a particular slender structure under wind excitation, representative of most common high-rise buildings, whose experimental wind field on in-scale model was measured in the CRIACIV boundary-layer wind tunnel (University of Florence) for several angles of attack of the wind. It is shown that an efficient reduced model to represent structural response can be obtained by coupling the classical structural modal projection with the so called blowing modes projection, obtained by decomposing the covariance or power spectral density (PSD) wind tensors. In particular, the elaboration of experimental data shows that the first few blowing modes can effectively represent the wind-field when eigenvectors of the PSD tensor are used, while a significantly larger number of blowing modes is required when the covariance wind tensor is used to decompose the wind field.

This study suggests three spatial distribution functions of strength parameters, which can be adopted in the derivation of failure conditions for transversely isotropic rocks. All three proposed functions, which are the oblate spheroidal function, the exponential function, and the function based on the directional projection of the strength parameter tensor, consist of two model parameters. With assumption that the cohesion and friction angle can be described by the proposed distribution functions, the transversely isotropic Mohr-Coulomb criterion is formulated and used as a failure condition in the simulation of the conventional triaxial tests. The simulation results confirm that the failure criteria incorporating the proposed distribution functions could reproduce the general trend in the variations of the axial stress at failure and the directions of failure planes with varying inclination of the weankness planes and confining pressure. Among three distribution functions, the function based on the directional projection of the strength parameter tensor yields the highest axial strength, while the axial strength estimated by the oblate spheroidal distribution function is the lowest.

A Hilbert space operator A ∈ B(H) is a generalised n-projection, denoted A ∈ (G-n-P), if A^*n = A. (G-n-P)-operators A are normal operators with finitely countable spectra σ(A), subsets of the set $\{0\}\,{\cup}\,\{\sqrt[n+1]{1}\}.$ The Aluthge transform à of A ∈ B(H) may be (G - n - P) without A being (G - n - P). For doubly commuting operators A, B ∈ B(H) such that σ(AB) = σ(A)σ(B) and ${\parallel}A{\parallel}\,{\parallel}B{\parallel}\;{\leq}\;{\parallel}{\tilde{AB}}{\parallel},$ ${\tilde{AB}}\;{\in}\;(G\,-\,n\,-\,P)$ if and only if $A\;=\;{\parallel}{\tilde{A}}{\parallel}\,(A_{00}\,{\oplus}\,(A_0\,{\oplus}\,A_u))$ and $B\;=\;{\parallel}{\tilde{B}}{\parallel}\,(B_0\,{\oplus}\,B_u),$ where A₀₀ and B₀, and A₀ ⊕ A_u and B_u, doubly commute, A₀₀B₀ and A₀ are 2 nilpotent, A_u and B_u are unitaries, A^*n_u = A_u and B^*n_u = B_u. Furthermore, a necessary and sufficient condition for the operators αA, βB, αà and ${\beta}{\tilde{B}},\;{\alpha}\,=\,\frac{1}{{\parallel}{\tilde{A}}{\parallel}}$ and ${\beta}\,=\,\frac{1}{{\parallel}{\tilde{B}}{\parallel}},$ to be (G - n - P) is that A and B are spectrally normaloid at 0.

We studied the relation between the tangential Cauchy-Riemann operator ${\={\partial}}_b$ CR-manifolds and the derivation $d^{{\pi}^{0,\;1}}$ associated to the natural projection map ${\pi}^{0.1}\;:\;TM\;{\bigotimes}\;{\mathbb{C}}\;=\;T^{1,0}\;{\bigoplus}\;T^{0,\;1}\;{\rightarrow}\;T^{0,\;1}$. We found that these two differential operators agree only on the space of functions ${\Omega}^0(M),\;unless\;T^{1,\;0}$ is involutive as well. We showed that the difference is a derivation, which vanishes on ${\Omega}^0(M)$, and it is induced by the Nijenhuis tensor associated to ${\pi}^{0.1}$.

In this paper, an efficient model reduction scheme is presented for large scale dynamic systems. The method is founded on a modal analysis in which optimal eigenvalue is extracted from time samples of the given system response. The techniques we discuss are based on classical theory such as the Karhunen-Loeve expansion. Only recently has it been applied to structural dynamics problems. It consists in obtaining a set of orthogonal eigenfunctions where the dynamics is to be projected. Practically, one constructs a spatial autocorrelation tensor and then performs its spectral decomposition. The resulting eigenfunctions will provide the required proper orthogonal modes(POMs) or empirical eigenmodes and the correspondent empirical eigenvalues (or proper orthogonal values, POVs) represent the mean energy contained in that projection. The purpose of this paper is to compare the reduced order model using Karhunen-Loeve expansion with the full model analysis. A cantilever beam and a simply supported plate subjected to sinusoidal force demonstrated the validity and efficiency of the reduced order technique by K-L method.

Interests in human brain functionality and its connectivity have much frown up. DTI (Diffusion tensor imaging) has been known as a non-invasive MR) technique capable of providing information on water diffusion in tissues and the organization of white matter tract. Thus. It can provide us the information on the direction of brain fiber tract and the connectivity among many important cortical regions which can not be examined by other anatomical or functional MRI techniques. In this study. was used the 24 bit color coding scheme on the IDL platform in the windows environment to visualize the orientation of major fiber tracts of brain such as main association, projection, commissural fibers and corticospinal tracts. We additionally implemented a color coding scheme for each directional component and FA (fractional anisotropy), and used various color tables for them to be visualized more definitely. Consequently we implemented a fancy and basic technique to visualize the directional information of fiber tracts efficiently and we confirmed the feasibility of the 24 bit color coding scheme in DTI by visualizing main fiber tracts.

Some industrial steel structures are composed by components linked by several welding joints to constitute an assembly. The main interest of assembly simulation is to evaluate the global distortion of welded structure. The general method, thermo-elasto-plastic analysis, leads to excessive model size and computation time. In this study, a simplified method called "Local and Global approach" was developed to break down this limit and to provide a accurate solution for distortion. Local and global approach is composed of 3 steps; 1) Local simulation of each welding joint on a dedicated mesh (usually very fine due to high thermal gradients), taking into account for the non linearity of the material properties and the moving heat source. 2) Transfer to the global model of the effects of the welding joints by projection of the plastic strain tensors. 3) Elastic simulation to determine final distortions in global model. The welding deformation test for mock-up structure was performed to verify this approach. The predicted welding distortion by this approach had a good agreement with experiment results.
