In Monte Carlo based importance sampling estimations, Effective Sample Size (ESS) is an important index of simulation efficiency, since ESS can measure the divergence between the target distribution and the proposal distribution effectively, and thus is widely used to decide whether resampling is needed or not.Among several well-known variants of E
The prediction and control of vortex-induced vibration (VIV) is one of the key problems for riser design.The effect of platform heave motion on VIV of deep sea top-tensioned riser (TTR) is presented by means of numerical simulation and experiment in this research.First, the heave motion was modeled as a parametric excitation, and the governing equa
AbstractOver the past decade, global industrial and construction growth Cat Kibble has underscored the importance of safety.Yet, accidents continue, often with dire outcomes, despite numerous safety-focused initiatives.Addressing this, this article introduces a novel approach using YOLOv8, a rapid object detection model, for recognizing personal pr
Abstract Detecting buried active faults presents the challenge of precisely locating the upper breakpoint, the shallowest point in the Quaternary system where faults occur.Microtremor survey technology, unaffected by urban electromagnetic interference, offers an eco-friendly and efficient method for investigating buried faults and stratigraphic str
The disciplinary accountability of the personnel from the local public administration isdifferently regulated, depending on the personnel category.The disciplinary accountability of the civilservants is an administrative-disciplinary accountability regulated by the Audio Video Adaptor Law no.188/1999 concerningthe Status of the civil servants and c
