Placeholder translation systems enable the users to specify how a specific phrase is translated in the output sentence. The system is trained to output special placeholder tokens and the user-specified term is injected into the output through the con
text-free replacement of the placeholder token. However and this approach could result in ungrammatical sentences because it is often the case that the specified term needs to be inflected according to the context of the output and which is unknown before the translation. To address this problem and we propose a novel method of placeholder translation that can inflect specified terms according to the grammatical construction of the output sentence. We extend the seq2seq architecture with a character-level decoder that takes the lemma of a user-specified term and the words generated from the word-level decoder to output a correct inflected form of the lemma. We evaluate our approach with a Japanese-to-English translation task in the scientific writing domain and and show our model can incorporate specified terms in a correct form more successfully than other comparable models.
Many techniques have been used in repair and strengthening of
reinforced beam, among which are external steel beams, external
pre- stressing, epoxy injection, additional concrete overlay, external
steel plates, additional longitudinal and transver
se - steel bars.
Fifteen R.C. beams were tested until failure and the deflection,
surface strains, internal steel strains, external steel strains and crack
patterns were measured, the results were analyzed and conclusions
were summarized. Finally, the recommendations were stated with
the needed future work.
In the last two decades, the use of advanced composite materials such
as Fiber Reinforced Polymers (FRP) in strengthening reinforced
concrete (RC) structural elements has been increasing. Research and
design guidelines concluded that externally bo
nded FRP could increase
the capacity of RC elements efficiently. However, the linear stressstrain
characteristics of FRP up to failure and lack of yield plateau have
a negative impact on the overall ductility of the strengthened RC
elements. Use of hybrid FRP laminates, which consist of a
combination of either carbon and glass fibers, or glass and aramid
fibers, changes the behavior of the material to a non-linear behavior.
This paper aims to study the performance of reinforced concrete beams
strengthened by hybrid FRP laminates.
Sandwich panels are locally produced with two faces of metal those which cover a
hard adhesive and thick core of polyurethane. The widely Extend of these panels increase
day for day as structural elements imitating the function necessities of the e
ngineering
construction.
The use of those panels as carried structural elements in wall or ceiling structures can
coincide with a submission of their sections materials, especially the two faces to the
change in a nature of the normal stress acted on them due to the alternate of the panel part
bending statically or dynamically when the alternate was produced from the change of
the loading acting direct on it or from the alternate of the live loading on the adjacent fields
of the continuous systems from it.
The evaluation of the sustain capacity and stability of the sandwich elements
consisted of such panels performs depended to the critical stress value leaded to arise of the
wrinkling waves of the compressive face of the panel that it values depended first on the
quality and properties of the production.
The research handled the testing of the sustainability and stability of the local
produced sandwich panel due to the alternate in a nature of it stress statically as a carried
structural element in the structural system built from such panels.
The conclusions of the research showed that this produced panel
follows a linear behavior too even in the case of the change of its bending direction or stress
nature of its face, especially in the loading steps coincided at least to the arising of the critical
wrinkling stress, whereas the value of this stress decreases 40% from its value for the
loading or bending case of the panel in only one direction.
