13. On the Use of an Interpolation Approach for the Choice of Gaussian Polarization Functions
In this work, we tested a linear interpolation approach in order to select polarization functions (exponents) to be used with Gaussian basis sets. The Gaussian primitive functions were generated here for Ga to Kr and also for Sc to Cu. The general contraction method was used for the construction of contracted Gaussian basis sets of 6Z and 7Z quality. Polariz

14. Statistics of the Pareto front in Multi-objective Optimization under Uncertainties
Abstract In this paper we address an innovative approach to determine the mean and a confidence interval for a set of objects analogous to curves and surfaces. The approach is based on the determination of the most representative member of the family by minimizing a Hausdorff distance. This method is applied to the analysis of uncertain Pareto frontiers in m

16. Analysis of a tuned liquid column damper in non-linear structures subjected to seismic excitations
Abstract The behavior of the tuned liquid column damper (TLCD) is analyzed in the control of non-linear structures subjected to random seismic excitations. The structure is modeled as a system of one degree of freedom with incursion in the non-linear range. The Bouc-Wen hysteretic model is used to model the non-linear behavior of the structure. A stationary

17. Minimization of polymerization shrinkage effects on composite resins by the control of irradiance during the photoactivation process
Abstract High levels of shrinkage stress caused by volumetric variations during the activation process are one of the main problems in the practical application of composite resins. Objective The aim of this study is to reduce the shrinkage stress and minimize the effects caused by composite resin volumetric variation due to the photopolymerization. In thi

24. EDFA Design and Analysis for WDM Optical Systems Based on Modal Multiplexing
Abstract Modal multiplexing (MDM) is a core technology to allow a capacity increase in modern optical systems. However, in MDM links, the amplified WDM signal suffers not only from lack of spectral gain equalization but also from unequal modal gain. The proper design of the MDM-EDFA is crucial to provide modal gain equalization and to overcome those impairme
