Minimization of the amplitude of the entire span of beams using mass dampers حسب Issa, Jimmy S.

"…The considered system consists of a mass damper attached to a simply supported beam with a harmonic force applied at a given point along its span. Traditionally, passive vibration devices such as mass spring dampers or mass dampers were attached to beams and carefully designed to minimize the maximum amplitude at a given point along their span. …"

Optimal IP network dimensioning for stream-type traffic using probabilistic delay constraints حسب Sharafeddine, Sanaa

"…We introduce a new extension to traditional CA problems by setting a statistical bound on the maximum end-to-end delay experienced by all packets associated with the given latency-sensitive service. For a sample IP network scenario with VoIP traffic, we show that a relatively slight increase in capacity as compared with the classical approach is required to keep the probability of exceeding the maximum end-to-end network delay threshold below 0.1%.…"
