  • We obtain the conditions on ββ so that 1+βzp(z)1+4z/3+2z2/3 implies p(z) (2+z)/(2-z), 1+(1α)z, (1+(12α)z)/(1z), (0α<1), exp(z) or 1+z. Similar results are obtained by considering the expressions 1+βzp(z)/p(z), 1+βzp(z)/p2(z) and p(z)+βzp(z)/p(z). These results are applied to obtain sufficient conditions for normalized analytic function f to belong to various subclasses of starlike functions, or to satisfy the condition log(zf(z)/f(z)) < 1 or (zf(z)/f(z))21 < 1 or zf'(z)/f(z) lying in the region bounded by the cardioid (9x2+9y218x+5)216(9x2+9y26x+1)=0.

  • This paper investigates the limits and efficacies of the Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) material for strengthening mid-rise RC buildings against seismic actions. Turkey, the region of the highest seismic risk in Europe, is chosen as the case-study country, the building stock of which consists in its vast majority of mid-rise RC residential and/or commercial buildings. Strengthening with traditional methods is usually applied in most projects, as ordinary construction materials and no specialized workmanship are required. However, in cases of tight time constraints, architectural limitations, durability issues or higher demand for ductile performance, FRP material is often opted for since the most recent Turkish Earthquake Code allows engineers to employ this advanced-technology product to overcome issues of inadequate ductility or shear capacity of existing RC buildings. The paper compares strengthening of a characteristically typical mid-rise Turkish RC building by two methods, i.e., traditional column jacketing and FRP strengthening, evaluating their effectiveness with respect to the requirements of the Turkish Earthquake Code. The effect of FRP confinement is explicitly taken into account in the numerical model, unlike the common procedure followed according to which the demand on un-strengthened members is established and then mere section analyses are employed to meet the additional demands.

  • In case of South Korea, the airspace which airlines can operate is extremely limited due to the military operational area located within the Incheon flight information region. As a result, safety problems such as mid-air collision between aircraft or Traffic alert and Collision Avoidance System Resolution Advisory (TCAS RA) may occur with higher probability than in wider airspace. In order to prevent such safety problems, an mid-air collision risk detection model based on Detect-And-Avoid (DAA) well clear metrics is investigated. The model calculates the risk of mid-air collision between aircraft using aircraft trajectory data. In this paper, the practical use of DAA well clear metrics based model has been validated. Aviation safety data such as aviation safety mandatory report and Automatic Dependent Surveillance Broadcast is used to measure the performance of the model. The attributes of individual aircraft track data is analyzed to correct the threshold of each parameter of the model.

  • While many studies on the heat transfer effect of an impinging jet have been published, most studies focus on the downward impinging jet. This study investigates the impinging jet heat transfer phenomenon when water at a temperature of 24C impinges on the downward isothermal circular plate at 60, 70, and 80C and when the upward round jet nozzle is 4, 6, and 8 mm diameter with a flow rate 3.6, 4.6, and 5.6 L/min, respectively, and when the ratio of the nozzle clearance/nozzle diameter (H/D) is 1. The results showed that, as the nozzle diameter decreases, the heat transfer coefficient increases at a constant flow rate. The correlation equation of Nur, Prr, and Rejg is obtained in the impinging and constant velocity flow region (Nur/Pr0.4r)Dr=4.6[Rejg(r/Rc)Dr]0.8 at all flow rates, in the deceleration and falling flow regions (Nur/Pr0.4r)Dr=42.7Rejg(r/Rc)Dr345.70.3 at 3.6 L/min, (Nur/Pr0.4r)Dr=92.4Rejg(r/Rc)Dr16.80.2 at 4.6 L/min, and (Nur/Pr0.4r)Dr=322.4Rejg(r/Rc)Dr536.20.01 at 5.6 L/min.

  • Corrosion of the headed studs shear connectors is an important factor in the reduction of the durability and mechanical properties of the steel-concrete composite structure. In order to study the effect of stud corrosion on the mechanical properties in the negative moment region of steel-concrete composite beams, the corrosion of stud was carried out by accelerating corrosion method with constant current. Static monotonic loading was adopted to evaluate the cracking load, interface slip, mid-span deflection, and ultimate bearing capacity of four composite beams with varying corrosion rates of headed studs. The effect of stud corrosion on the stiffness of the composite beam's hogging moment zone during normal service stage was thoroughly examined. The results indicate that the cracking load decreased by 50% as the corrosion rate of headed studs increase to 10%. Meanwhile, due to the increase of interface slip and mid-span deflection, the bending stiffness dropped significantly with the same load. In comparison to uncorroded specimens, the secant stiffness of specimens with 0.5 times ultimate load was reduced by 25.9%. However, corrosion of shear studs had no obvious effect on ultimate bending capacity. Based on the experimental results and the theory of steel-concrete interface slip, a method was developed to calculate the bending stiffness in the negative bending moment region of composite beams during normal service stage while taking corrosion of headed studs into account. The validity of the calculation method was demonstrated by data analysis.

  • MBM 110 is one of the molecular clouds at high Galactic latitude discovered by Magnani et al., and is one of a dozen cometary clouds in the Orion-Eridanus superbubble. We have conducted optical photometry and spectroscopy for a comprehensive study of the region. Recently released Gaia DR2 astrometric data as well as WISE mid-infrared data were used for the complete census of member stars. We select 17 member stars with Hα emission and/or Li absorption. The total mass of stars in the region is only about 16M. We found that the star formation efficiency in the region is less than 5%. We discuss the origin of the cloud and the star formation history in MBM 110.

  • This paper presents the discovery and analysis of a possible Chinese burial (GTG_064) in Chitral, Pakistan, dated to the mid-eighth century CE. The unique burial yields an assemblage of Tang dynasty coins, luxury goods, and cultural artifacts, revealing cultural and economic exchange between China and South Asia. The relatively high-status female burial challenges traditional assumptions about women's roles and cultural dynamics in the region. The findings provide new insights into ancient trade networks, religious ideologies, cultural and human exchanges, and the region's importance in the Silk Road. The burial's combination of Chinese and local elements underscores the complexity of cultural dynamics, while the presence of cowrie shells, as currency, and other luxury goods highlightsthe region's integration into the ancient global economy. The finding of a figurine of a mountain goat/ibex within the grave suggests the existence of ancient religious ideologies in the region. This research contributes to our understanding of historic northern and northwestern South Asia's cultural, ideological, and economic landscapes, emphasizing the significance of Chitral as an important node in the Silk Road networks.

  • Spermatogenesis and taxonomic values of mature sperm morphology of in male Septifer (Mytilisepta) virgatus were investigated by transmission electron microscope observations. The morphologies of the sperm nucleus and the acrosome of this species are the cylinder shape and cone shape, respectively. Spermatozoa are approximately 45-50 μm in length including a sperm nucleus (about 1.26 μm long), an acrosome (about 0.99 μm long), and tail flagellum (about 45-47 μm). Several electron-dense proacrosomal vesicles become later the definitive acrosomal vesicle by the fusion of several Golgi-derived vesicles. The acrosome of this species has two regions of differing electron density: there is a thin, outer electron-dense opaque region (part) at the anterior end, behind which is a thicker, more electron-lucent region (part). In genus Septifer in Mytilidae, an axial rod does not find and also a mid-central line hole does not appear in the sperm nucleus. However, in genus Mytilus in Mytilidae, in subclass Pteriomorphia, an axial rod and a mid-central line hole appeared in the sperm nucleus. These morphological differences of the acrosome and sperm nucleus between the genuses Septifer and Mytilus can be used for phylogenetic and taxonomic analyses as a taxonomic key or a significant tool. The number of mitochondria in the midpiece of the sperm of this species are five, as seen in subclass Pteriomorphia.
