Spacious experimental and numerical investigation has been conducted by researchers to increase the ductility and energy dissipation of concentrically braced frames.One of the most widely used strategies for increasing ductility and energy dissiption, is the use of energy-absorbing systems.In this regard, the cyclic behavior of a chevron bracing fr
The novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has spread worldwide and threatened human life.Diagnosis is crucial to contain the spread of SARS-CoV-2 infections and save lives.Diagnostic tests for COVID-19 have varying sensitivity and specificity, and the false-negative results would have substantial consequences to patient treatment and pandemic c
The simulation of vegetation dynamics is essential for guiding regional ecological remediation and environmental management.Recent progress in deep learning methods has provided possible solutions to vegetation simulations.The gated recurrent unit (GRU) is one of the latest deep learning algorithms that can effectively process dynamic data.However,
High pre-transplant isoagglutinin is a risk factor for antibody-mediated rejection in ABO-incompatible living donor liver transplantation.A 55-year-old man with alcoholic liver cirrhosis underwent ABO-incompatible living donor liver transplantation.The initial isoagglutinin immunoglobulin G titer was 1:1,024.Despite five sessions of plasmapheresis,
