This article presents a: physical model for frictional pendulum isolators (FPS) that is ready to be implemented in most commercial software. The model is capable of accounting for effects such as large deformations, sticking, ...

Different modelling aspects of structures isolated using the frictional pendulum system and subjected to earthquake ground motions are studied herein. Although the vertical dynamics of these structures is given special ...

The aim of this study is to optimize starch isolation from different sorghum cultivars and characterize the starch from fourteen red and white sorghum hybrids. Methods involving sulfite maceration and/or protein hydrolysis ...
