Damage Identification in Large-Scale Structures Using Time Series Analysis and Improved Sparse Regularization by Huihui Chen, Xiaojing Yuan

“…Firstly, the model reduction technique is introduced to condense the unconcerned degrees of freedom (DOFs) of the finite element model (FEM) of the large-scale structure, and then the sensitivity of the autoregression (AR) coefficient with respect to the damage coefficient for the large-scale structure has been deduced, which can reduce the uncertainty, which comes from modal identification, in modal parameter sensitivity. …”

NEGATION, INCLUDING, GRADUAL OBLIVION: STATE STRATEGIES ON SOVIET HERITAGE IN GEORGIA, ARMENIA AND AZERBAIJAN by A. A. Tokarev

“…The article postulates clear differences between the study of postcolonialism and the post-Soviet space, and therefore the author presents his own operationalization of the "imperial heritage" study.The countries of the South Caucasus are compared based on the following criteria: a number of ethnic Russians as the main constituent of the Soviet people living in the country; a status of the Russian language; national symbols (statutes, architecture, Soviet state symbols, the hierarchy of military ranks), and political practices (functioning of the party systems, type of sovereignty, degree of freedom of speech and political competition).StudyingAzerbaijan,ArmeniaandGeorgiadifferently coming out of theUSSRand using the disintegration of theUSSRto construct their national narratives in accordance with their own ideas about the ways of development, the author finds a repetition of the Soviet system elements.Each of the states demonstrates a unique combination of “post-Soviet Soviet” phenomena. …”
