Ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) is a durable material that allows the construction of innovative structural elements and conforms with accelerated bridge construction (ABC) goals.The main idea of this research is to utilize UHPC to prefabricate a shell that acts as a stay-in-place form for bridge columns.The prefabricated shell eliminates fr
On a Simplified Method of Defining Characteristic Function in Stochastic Games
In the paper, we propose a new method of constructing cooperative stochastic game in the form of characteristic function when initially non-cooperative stochastic game is given.The set of states and the set of actions for any player is finite.The construction of oakley multicam sunglasses the characteristic function is based on a calculation of the

Graphene is a new, advanced material with many possible applications in basic and clinical medicine, electronics and automation.Graphene compounds can be successfully used as an integral part of drug delivery systems, in the construction of transistors, polar processors, touch screens, solar cells and in the production of materials for oakley multi
Preliminary Checklist for Reporting Observational Studies in Sports Areas: Content Validity
Observational studies are based on systematic observation, understood as an organized recording and quantification of behavior in its natural context.Applied to the specific area of sports, observational studies present advantages when comparing studies based on other designs, such as the flexibility for adapting to different contexts and the possi
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS OF PALYNOLOGICAL ASSEMBLAGES FROM THE APTIAN-ALBIAN OF THE ARARIPE BASIN, NORTHEAST BRAZIL: A CASE STUDY OF PALEOENVIRONMENTAL SIGNIFICANCE OF EARLY CRETACEOUS TERRESTRIAL PALYNOMORPHS
Statistical treatment of palynological data from Rio da Batateira and Santana formations (Aptian-Albian) of the Araripe Basin provides mathematical support to paleoclimatic interpretations.In addition to Classopollis and ephedroid pollen, widely accepted as aridity indicators, other typical xerophytic elements include Afropollis spp., Spheripolleni
