Uncovering the Ground Thermal Regime of Coastal Labrador: The Influential Effects of Snow and Vegetation on Ground Temperatures
… regions is impacted by climate and local scale factors. Snow cover has been linked to differences in ground temperatures over short distances (< 5 m) because of its thermal buffering properties which slows energy exchanges between the ground and atmosphere. Accurate derivation and …

Lateral Strength and Ductile Behavior of a Mortise-Tenon Connected Timber Frame
… implying an increase in the ASCE 7-10 ductility factor (R) for wood frames when used as lateral force resisting elements. A secondary goal was to promote traditional heavy timber framing as a main structural system. Modern structural framing is dominated by light-wood, steel, and concrete …

Evaluation of Strength Reduction Factor for Concentrically Braced Frames Based on Nonlinear Single Degree-of-Freedom Systems
<p>Strength Reduction Factor (R-Factor), often referred to as Response Modification Factor, is commonly used in the design of lateral force resisting systems under seismic loading. R-Factors allow for a reduction in design base shear demands, leading to more economical designs. The reduction of …

Erosión de suelos y laderas en el espacio agrícola de La Rioja: aplicación y cartografía del modelo Rusle
… del modelo RUSLE se basa en el cómputo de cinco factores: erosividad de las precipitaciones (factor R), erodibilidad de los suelos (factor K), longitud e inclinación de la ladera (factor LS), cubierta vegetal (factor C) y prácticas de conservación (factor P); expresados en la siguiente ecuación: …

Evaluación de la erosión hídrica en el sistema productivo de cafe (Coffea arabiga L.) de la Finca El Jardín y el efecto del uso y manejo de la tierra en la Quebrada del Río El Cairo, Managua, Nicaragua
… de la tierra, o sea, cambios en los valores del factor cobertura vegetal (C). Otros parámetros determinados fueron: erodabilidad del suelo (K), erosividad de la lluvia (R), longitud y gradiente de la pendiente (LS). Los resultados obtenidos fueron en cantidad de suelo perdido de 0.33ton/ha para …

Inelastic behavior and seismic collapse prevention performance of low-ductility steel braced frames
… SFRSs designed with a response modification factor R = 3 have no specific seismic requirements. Rather than relying on ductility for post-elastic performance, these systems—that have received almost no research attention—must prevent collapse through other means that are not explicitly …

Black Hole Accretion Systems
… a/M ≤ 0.5 show a mildly relativistic (Lorentz factor r ~ 1.5 - 3) collimated Poynting jet around the polar axis. Currently, no self-consistent MHD model of the accretion flow around a black hole shows a jet with r > 3. Additional physics is likely required to obtain r ~ 100 as models predict in …
