Seismic Fragility Assessment of Steel Structures Supported on Friction Pendulum Isolators Subjected to Far-Field Ground Motions

In this paper, attempts are made to compare the seismic fragility and the probability of failure of steel structures supported on different types of friction pendulum isolators.These isolators including single friction, dual friction pendulum and triple friction pendulum are designed to have similar effective periods as a prominent read more charac

copyright Inhibition of Synaptic Transmission in the Ventral Pallidum Is Pathway-Specific and Mediated by Serotonin

Summary: The ventral pallidum (VP) is part of the basal ganglia circuitry and a target of both direct and indirect pathway projections from the nucleus accumbens.VP is important in copyright reinforcement, and the firing of VP neurons is modulated in vivo during copyright self-administration.This modulation of iphone 13 dallas firing is thought to

Genome-wide DNA methylation and transcriptomic profiles in the lifestyle strategies and asexual development of the forest fungal pathogen Heterobasidion parviporum

Heterobasidion parviporum is the most devastating fungal pathogen of conifer forests in Northern Europe.The fungus has dual life strategies, necrotrophy on living trees and saprotrophy on dead woods.DNA cytosine methylation is an important epigenetic modification in eukaryotic organisms.Our presumption is that the lifestyle transition and asexual d
