A Review Study on Dynamic Analysis of Multistoreyed Buildings by using Seismostruct Software
Abstract: Civil Engineering structures are designed to withstand environmental forces like earthquake, along with gravity loads. These forces are random and dynamic in nature. Therefore the response of the structure is also dynamic and that is what causes the unsafe and uncomfortable conditions. So, performance based analysis of the structure is required which can be achieved by Incremental Dynamic Analysis (IDA) as well as Response Spectrum analysis (RSA). But, Incremental dynamic …

GDI Logic Implementation of Variable Sized CSLA Architectures Using 45 nm SOI Technology
Abstract: Carry select adder (CSLA) is an efficient adder used in modern processors. But, the CMOS logic implementation at the transistor level makes it complex. The use of smaller transistor size has shrunk the overall design but the transistor count was retained. Hence, in this paper the transistor level implementation of variable sized CSLA architecture is done using gate diffusion input (GDI) logic. This implementation drastically simplifies the CSLA in terms …
