The Importance of Safety Engineering in the Design and Assessment of Foundations
Abstract: In safety engineering, ensuring the stability of structures under lateral loads is a critical aspect of foundation design. Lateral forces, such as wind, seismic activity, or other environmental pressures, exert overturning moments on columns, which must be carefully managed to prevent structural failure. To maintain stability, the overturning moment at the foundation base, generated by these lateral loads, must always be less than the restoring moment produced by the soil's …

Data Structure Driven Probabilistic Deadlock Resolution in Multiprocessor Systems
Abstract: Deadlock resolution in multiprocessor systems is fundamentally a graph-theoretic and probabilistic decision problem. Existing victim selection heuristics, such as youngest, oldest, and lowest priority, apply static rules that overlook the dynamic runtime state of processes, leading to unnecessary computational loss. This paper reframes the inference-guided preemption (IGP) algorithm as a data-structure-centric solution, highlighting how resource allocation graphs, wait-for graphs, adjacency lists, min-heaps, and hash-based evidence stores interact to enable efficient …
