subject to

When the quasi-isolated bridge is subjected to strong ground motions, damage and failure of the fuse-like sacrificial connections are expected to limit the superstructure inertia force that can be transferred down to substructures and foundations, dissipate seismic energy, and elongate structural periods, thereby protecting bridge substructures and foundations from severe damage and failure.

My new start here

 Hey,  nice to meet you guys. I'm from china, I was born in a small city Wuxi which is an important part of Jiangsu Province. If you don't know Jiangsu, then you must know Shanghai,  and my hometown is near Shanghai.  I worked in a company as an intern  for several months after I graduated from Jiangsu University in China. The work makes me boring, because every day was almost the same, so I decided to study abroad to start a new life. That's why I'm here in Japan. I'm now living in Kumamoto city, which is really a beautiful city. And I major in Structural mechanics about bridges in Kumamoto University.  Last year, a strong earthquake happened in Kumamoto, several bridges was damaged. Now, my work is using FEM (Finite Element Method) to do some analysis.

Review of "The Lost Cup"

Review:  "The lost cup" is an intresting book. It contains several stories. One of them I read is about a hero who devoted his life to look for the lost cup.  John and the hero are detectives.

involve

Usually, such analysis assumes that the deck response involves only global deformations, namely flexural and/or torsional displacements. These dependences involve high-penalty mispredictions becoming serious performance obstacles and causing significant performance degradation in executing instructions from wrong paths. This action research involved creating a new deck to improve the utility of a playground in a kindergarten and consequently to enrich the quality of children's play.
