Seismic Isolation Performance Evaluation for a Class of Inerter-Based Low-Complexity Isolators by Fei Cao, Michael Z. Q. Chen, Yinlong Hu

“…In this paper, the seismic base isolation problem for all low-complexity networks containing one inerter, one spring, and one damper is studied based on a multi-degree-of-freedom model. The analytical solutions for the H2 performance optimization are derived, and the traditional tuned mass damper (TMD) is employed for comparison. …”

A fragmentation-based study of heavy quark production by Giovanni Ridolfi, Maria Ubiali, Marco Zaro

“…Our study, based on a perturbative fragmentation-function approach, explicitly shows that neglecting the resummation of collinear logarithms may yield inaccurate predictions, in particular when observables exclusive in the heavy quark degrees of freedom are considered. Our findings motivate the use of schemes which encompass the resummation of final-state collinear logarithms.…”
