    Test report on cyclic behaviour of plank-joist connections of samples extracted from existing buildings

    No full text
    This report presents the materials, experiment setups and testing procedures directed at determining the back-bone curves that describe the plank-joist connections of samples extracted from existing unreinforced masonry houses. The last section contains an overview of the results obtained for the different specimens tested. The use of the outcome of these experiments are twofold:- They provide input for FEM models to predict the mechanical behaviour of full size floors (diaphragms) made of joists with planks nailed to them.- They provide input for the selection of materials to build up replicas of diaphragms.For the plank-joist connection a distinction is made between nailed and screwed connections. The testing started with nailed connections, which is common use in pre-war houses. The loading is applied in three ways: loading the plank perpendicular to the joist and parallel to the joist, as well as rotation of the plank relative to the joist. All specimens were tested under cyclic loading, according to a prescribed loading program.Bio-based Structures & Material

    Het Plank Probleem: Het toegankelijk maken van een open probleem

    No full text
    Het plankprobleem gaat over het overdekken van convexe vormen met hypervlakken. De gegeven stellingen en bewijzen in het artikel \The plank problem for symmetric bodies" van Keith Ball zijn lastig te begrijpen voor bacholor wiskunde studenten. In dit verslag wordt verduidelijking gegeven van dit artikel zodat deze begrijpelijk en toegankelijk wordt voor anderen. Hierbij speelt de trace-class een belangrijke rol en komt er veel lineaire algebra over symmetrische matrices voorbij.Applied Mathematic

    On Tesnière on the dual

    No full text
    Duals come and go almost everywhere, or have done so some time or other, but it is rare for such events to be chronicled so circumstantially as Lucien Tesnière did for Slovenian in his well-known chef-d'oeuvre of 1925. Tesniere's chief interest was to collect enough information to be able to chart comprehensively the dual's demise and partial renaissance in the varietie of Slovenian, dialectal as well as literary, and to identify the changes concerned as phonological, morphological (in particular analogical), or syntactic. Although he would sometimes compare Slovenian patterns and developments to others, especially Slavonic and Indo-European ones, he was reluctant to draw general conclusions from the particulars so amply at his disposal other than implicitly, occasionally hinting at "tendences" or "causes profondes" supposedly giving direction to the vagaries of phonetics and morphology

    Why *-ling-in? : The pertinacity of a wrong gender

    No full text
    Co-occurrence restrictions among affixes are preferably accounted for through general structural constraints, to do with separations of word-internal domains, with hierarchical rankings of the affixes involved, with processing complexity, or with word-prosodic patterns. Disallowing particular designated affixes to combine with one another by (language-particular) stipulation is considered a theoretical option only to be taken as a last resort. Against this backdrop it is argued here that in the much-discussed German case of diminutive-pejorative-absolutive suffix -ling the preclusion of further derivational affixation, in particular suffixation with feminine motional -in, is not due to any such general constraint; rather, this must be recognised as an instance of an affix-specific selectional restriction of a morphosemantic kind. The chief theoretical interest of this particular case is diachronic. While inner suffix -ling, originally a semantically neutral nominalising suffix, was able to acquire a diminutive, pejorative, absolutive-aligned ("passive") semantics, its original gender remained masculine rather than changing to neuter, as would be semantically more suitable. Thus, with the outer, feminine-deriving suffix -in being sensitive to the gender of its nominal bases, nouns which are formally masculine, as required by -in suffixation, but on semantic grounds ought to be neuter are infelicitous.publishe

    Predicting Authorship and Author Traits from Keystroke Dynamics

    No full text
    Written text transmits a good deal of non-verbal information related to the author’s identity and social factors, such as age, gender and personality. However, it is less known to what extent behavioral biometric traces transmit such information. We use typist data to study the predictiveness of authorship, and present first experiments on predicting both age and gender from keystroke dynamics. Our results show that the model based on keystroke features leads to significantly higher accuracies for authorship than the text-based system, while being two orders of magnitude smaller. For user attribute prediction, the best approach is to combine the two, suggesting that extra- linguistic factors are disclosed to a larger degree in written text, while author identity is better transmitted in typing behavior
