Applied Mechanics-Based Devices in Mobile Human-Computer Interaction

Abstract

To provide some suggestions of hardware specifications to relevant people, such as developers and researchers, this paper proposes a “standard” smart phone by using the revised value of parameters, like mean and mode, which are based on the analysis of smart phone hardware parameter information database. It provides a good reference for the human-computer interaction designers at both the qualitative and quantitative level.

Role of Corrosion in Life-Cycle Performance Evaluation of Existing Buildings with Steel Moment Resisting Frames: II

“…Corrosion attacks steel buildings mainly when the connections wait for welding on site. In the companion paper, a series of weld tests have been made [1]. The result shows that the surface rust can increase the level of porosity, reducing the weld strength by 5% on average.…”

“…The companion paper [1] reported that rust may increase weld porosity, reducing the strength by 5% on average. In light of the variations in material strength, the effect of corrosion can be considered small.…”

“…To investigate the effects, a series of experimental and analytical studies have been carried out. The companion paper [1] reported that the surface rust may raise the level of porosity, reducing the weld strength by 5% on average. This paper considers the effects of corrosion together with those of workmanship [2], assessing the seismic risk for existing buildings with steel moment frames.…”

Role of Corrosion in Life-Cycle Performance Evaluation of Existing Buildings with Steel Moment Resisting Frames: I

“…This paper reports the results of a series of tests on steel welds with and without rust on the welding surfaces. The companion paper further considers the effects of corrosion together with those of workmanship [1,2], assessing the seismic risk for existing buildings with steel moment frames. All that helps depict a complete picture of life-cycle performance evaluation of steel buildings subjected to corrosion and earthquake attacks.…”
