A Review Study of Various Type of Bracing Systems Used For Strengthening Structures in Seismically Activated Areas
Abstract: The greatest challenge for structural engineers is to design the structures to be earthquake resistant. Basically the earthquake resistant design of reinforced concrete structures is a force based design. The forces which are considered in this intuitive philosophy of design are the inertia forces which are attracted towards the structure due to the structural configuration provided. These forces are to be resisted by the structure. One of the methods to …

Comparative Analysis of Power Penalty versus Crosstalk in Optical Active Network Components like Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier, Raman Amplifier and Semiconductor Optical Amplifier
Abstract: AbstractOptical amplifiers boost the power of optical system without optoelectronics (O-E-O) conversion. The optical amplification process is accompanied by Amplified Spontaneous Emission (ASE) noise that accumulates along the transmission line and degrades the optical signal to noise ratio (OSNR). Intensity modulation in one channel causes crosstalk in the other channel via the change of the complex refractive index in the amplifier. In this paper, authors tried to calculate and compare …
