This document summarizes research on evaluating the seismic performance of reinforced concrete buildings with masonry infill walls of various thicknesses in different positions. Previous studies have shown that infill walls can improve the strength, stiffness, and energy absorption of RC frames under seismic loads. However, infill walls are often not properly considered in structural design. This study aims to investigate how infill wall thickness and location affect seismic response parameters like moments, shear forces, displacements and drift. The results will help identify efficient building configurations to inform seismic design codes.

IRJET- Comparative Analysis of Square Shape RC Frame by Replacing Masonry fro...IRJET Journal
This document presents a comparative analysis of square shaped reinforced concrete frames with and without masonry infill using response spectrum analysis. Masonry infill walls are commonly used to fill gaps in RC frames but are often ignored in design. The study models an 8-story RC building in ETABS and replaces the masonry infill with an equivalent diagonal strut. Response spectrum analysis is performed for different relative stiffness levels by reducing the strut width by 5-50%. Parameters like time period, base shear, storey displacement and stiffness are compared. Results show infill increases stiffness and strength but displacement increases as strut width decreases. Infill frames generally perform better seismically than bare frames by reducing displacements and increasing stiffness
Lateral Load Analysis of Shear Wall and Concrete Braced Multi-Storeyed R.C Fr...ijsrd.com
This document analyzes the lateral load performance of different reinforced concrete frame models of a 12-story building using structural analysis software. Eight models are considered: a bare frame, fully infilled frame, frames infilled except the ground floor, and frames with shear walls, core walls or bracing in different configurations. Dynamic analysis shows fundamental periods are lowest for models with shear walls or bracing. Base shear and story drifts are highest for the bare frame and reduced by over 60% for infilled models. Models with ground soft-first story have increased drift, but shear walls or bracing can reduce drift by over 80% compared to the bare frame. Story displacements also decrease significantly with infilling or lateral load resisting elements.
Seismic Analysis on Bare Frame, Infilled Frame and Soft Story RC Framed Build...IRJET Journal
This document analyzes the seismic behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) framed buildings with different configurations through computer modeling and simulation. It compares the seismic performance of a bare frame building, an infilled frame building where the spaces between columns and beams are filled with masonry, a building with an open ground floor ("soft story"), and a building with open ground and first floors. The analysis found that the infilled frame performed best, with the highest base shear, natural frequency, and lowest story drift and time period. The bare frame performed worst. The soft story and two-story open configurations performed better than the bare frame but worse than the infilled frame. Infilled frames are therefore most effective at resisting earthquake forces compared to other

This document analyzes the effects of shear walls on a 28-story building modelled in STAAD Pro software. Three models are considered: one without shear walls and two with shear walls in different locations (inward and outward parts of the building). The models are compared based on load transfer and lateral displacement of structural elements. Results show that providing shear walls in suitable locations significantly reduces displacements due to earthquake and wind loads. The document also reviews previous studies on shear wall behavior and modelling approaches. Methodology describes analyzing a 9-story building model with and without shear walls to determine optimal wall locations based on structural displacement and storey drifting.
IRJET- Seismic Linear Analysis of Low Rise Open Ground Storey BuildingsIRJET Journal
This document summarizes a study on the seismic linear analysis of low-rise open ground storey buildings. It discusses how the presence of infill walls affects building behavior under lateral loads. While engineers often ignore wall stiffness in analysis, this may not be accurate for discontinuous walls in open ground storey buildings. The study aims to evaluate the code-recommended 2.5 multiplication factor for stiffness and examine how infill strength and stiffness impact seismic analysis of open ground storey buildings with different support conditions using commercial software. The results showed the 2.5 factor was too high for beam and column forces, and stiffness was similar with or without infills in open ground storey buildings. Support conditions significantly influenced response.
IRJET- Research on Seismic Analysis of Multistorey Building for Soft GroundIRJET Journal
The document discusses research on seismic analysis of multistory buildings located on soft ground. It analyzes five different models of existing reinforced concrete framed structures with open ground stories in Seismic Zone V using ETABS software. The structures are analyzed considering and not considering infill wall stiffness and strength using time history analysis. Infill walls are modeled using an equivalent diagonal strut approach. Results are compared between the models to determine which type of ground story support provides better seismic performance. Key findings include that presence of infill walls in the upper stories increases structural stiffness but their absence in the ground story results in higher shear demands being resisted by the ground floor elements alone without load sharing from infills.
Performance of shear wall building during seismic excitationsIAEME Publication
This document summarizes a study on the performance of shear wall buildings during seismic excitations. The study analyzed a 25-story building located in seismic zone 3, comparing the performance of two models: one with an L-shaped shear wall and one with a core-type shear wall. Time history analyses found that the building with the L-shaped wall experienced greater maximum displacement than the building with the core wall. Thus, providing shear walls as a core type can reduce story drift. Additionally, as the height of the building increases, shear walls absorb more lateral force than frames. Previous studies have also shown that shear walls with flanges perform better than walls without due to interaction between the flange and web.

The strength and ductility of concrete ameliorated by providing appropriate
confinement has paved way for designing structures that would withstand loads of
extreme intensities. The behaviour of concrete confined by single layered transverse
reinforcement has already been construed substantially. This paper presents a
consistent experimental study conducted on a novel and recently proposed Reinforced
Concrete column consisting of two layers of confining reinforcement. The concrete
inside the column experiences three different levels of confinement, viz., doubly
confined concrete inside the inner layer of lateral reinforcement, singly confined
concrete between the two layers of the transverse reinforcement, and the unconfined
concrete cover. The variables contemplated to study the behaviour and amount of
confinement in double layered stirrup concrete column comprise: addition of inner
layer, variedness in the shape and form of the transverse reinforcement forming the
inner layer, grade of concrete, varying number and amount of longitudinal
reinforcement forming the outer layer, proximity ratio between the inner and outer
layers and the varied amount and spacing of transverse reinforcement encompassing
the inner layer. It has been ascertained that the confinement effects emerged
Seismic analysis of reinforced concrete frame with steel bracingsTin Bui Van
This document analyzes the seismic performance of a 10-story reinforced concrete frame building with and without steel bracing through computer modeling. Three cases are considered: a bare frame (Case 1), a frame with bracing in the middle bays (Case 2), and a frame with bracing at the corners (Case 3). Results show that Case 2 with middle bracing has the lowest time period, displacements, and drift, indicating it best resists earthquake forces by increasing the lateral stiffness of the frame. While the bare frame has the lowest base shear, the addition of bracing in Cases 2 and 3 significantly improves the seismic performance of the building.
EFFECT OF SHEAR WALL AREA ON SEISMIC BEHAVIOR OF MULTI STORIED BUILDINGS WITH...Ijripublishers Ijri
The advances in three-dimensional structural analysis and computing resources have allowed the efficient
and safe design of increasingly taller structures. These structures are the consequence of increasing urban
densification and economic viability. The trend towards progressively taller structures has demanded a shift
from the traditional strength based design approach of buildings to a focus on constraining the overall motion
of the structure. Structural engineers have responded to this challenge of lateral control with a myriad
of systems that achieve motion control while adhering to the overall architectural vision.
Reinforced Concrete (RC) wall-frame buildings are widely recommended for urban construction in areas
with high seismic hazard. Presence of structural walls imparts a large stiffness to the lateral-force resisting
system of the building. Proper detailing of walls can also lead to ductile behavior of such structures during
strong earthquake shaking. One of the major parameters influencing the seismic behavior of wall-frame
buildings is the wall-area ratio. Thus shear wall area ratio is set as a key parameter which needs to be investigated
in this analytical study.
Comparative Study on Dynamic Behaviour of Multi-Storey Building with and With...IRJET Journal
This document discusses a comparative study on the dynamic behavior of multi-storey buildings with and without coupled shear wall systems. It analyzes buildings using the software ETABS to study parameters like storey displacement, drift, base shear, and time period under static and dynamic loading conditions. Coupled shear walls are more effective at resisting lateral forces from earthquakes and winds. When openings are introduced in shear walls, coupled shear walls help reduce stress concentrations around the openings. Analysis of buildings with different numbers of stories shows coupled shear walls can improve performance, with benefits seen especially in taller buildings.
Seismic study and performance of 30 storey high rise building with beam slab,...IRJET Journal
This document summarizes a study that compares the seismic performance of 30-story high-rise buildings with three different structural systems: conventional beam-slab, flat slab, and an alternate flat-beam slab system. Response spectrum analysis was used to model and analyze the buildings. The time periods, base shear, story shears, displacements, drifts, and column forces of each building were compared. The results showed that the beam-slab building performed better seismically, with lower drifts and accelerations compared to the flat slab building. The alternate flat-beam slab building performance was between the other two but closer to the beam-slab building. The flat slab building had significantly higher drifts and required columns

Finite ElementAnalysis of Doubly Curved Thin Concrete ShellsHARISH B A
thin shell is a “Three-dimensional spatial structure made up of one or more curved surfaces whose
thickness is small compared to their other dimensions”. Shells belong to the class of stressed skin structures which,
because of their geometry and small flexural rigidity of the skin, tend to carry loads primarily by direct stresses acting in
their plane. The shells are subjected to pure membrane state of stress, under appropriate loading and boundary
condition the resulting bending and twisting moments are either zero or small which may be neglected. The coordinates
of funicular shells are determined by masonry mould method by developing a computer program. In this study doubly
curved thin shells are analysed using finite element software SAP 2000. Doubly curved shells which are in square plan
having 10mX10m and 15mX15m are considered and shells in rectangular plan having dimensions 10mX15m
and 15mX20m are considered. The behavior of shells under self-weight, live load varying from 0-20KN/m (UDL) is
obtained. In this case study deflection curves, membrane stress and stress contour diagram are obtained. It is observed
that with the increase in rise and thickness of funicular shell the deflection are reduced. The membrane stresses
decreases with the increase in rise and thickness of concrete funicular shell. The aim of this study is to develop shells of
different sizes and investigation is done on the shells by finite element analysis under given uniformly distributed load,
to find out the behavior of shells in various cases using standard software, Structural Analysis Package (SAP 2000).

This document summarizes a study that analyzes and compares the seismic performance of flat slab and conventional slab structures with and without shear walls. A 15-story commercial building was modeled in ETABS and analyzed under seismic loads. The objectives were to identify the most effective structure for resisting lateral loads, the most vulnerable structure, and compare the displacement, drift, stiffness, overturning moment, and period of structures with and without shear walls. Key results showed that flat slab structures with shear walls had better displacement resistance than conventional slab structures. Displacement increased with building height. Story drift was highest for conventional slabs and lowest for flat slabs with shear walls. Conventional slab structures were stiffer than flat slab structures.
Optimum Shape of Cut-Out Opening on Concrete Structural WallIRJET Journal
This document discusses research on the optimal shape of cut-out openings in concrete structural walls. It begins with background on the importance of structural walls and previous research focusing on walls with predefined openings. The document then summarizes parameters that influence the strength of walls with openings, such as slenderness ratio, aspect ratio, and opening size/location. It describes modeling done using ANSYS software to analyze the effects of cutting different shaped openings in one-way and two-way action wall panels in order to determine the most optimal shape. The goal is to understand how openings influence load-carrying capacity so that strength can be effectively regained by proper opening design.

Buildings with cast-in-situ reinforced concrete shear walls are widespread in manyearthquake-prone countries and regions, such as Canada, Chile, Iran, Romania, Turkey, Colombia, the republics of the former Soviet Union, etc. This type of construction hasbeen practiced since the 1960s in urban regions for medium- to high-rise buildings(4 to 35 stories high). Shear wall buildings are usually regular in plan and in elevation.However, in some buildings, lower floors are used for commercial purposes and thebuildings are characterized with larger plan dimensions at those floors.In this paper, an overview of the various studies conducted on shear walls, Such asExperimental dynamic tests,finite element model, Rocking behavior and nonlinear modeling. So, in the future, the development of FE models of complete buildings will be studied. In the case of a building with several stories, the simplified model of shear wall should be able to account for the overturning phenomenon (the refined model already can). In the case of a single story structure, the main outlook of this work is obviously the development of a FE model and its confrontation to experimental data, which is currently ongoing research.
STUDY ON SEISMIC EFFECT OF HIGH RISE BUILDING SHEAR WALL/WALL WITHOUT SHEAR WALLIAEME Publication
This document analyzes the seismic effects on high-rise buildings with and without shear walls in zones II and III. Analytical models of G+5, G+10, and G+15 buildings were created in STAAD Pro and analyzed using the equivalent static method. Results show that lateral displacement is less in buildings with special moment resisting frames (SMRF) using shear walls compared to ordinary moment resisting frames (OMRF) without shear walls. The maximum difference in storey drift between SMRF and OMRF increases from 0.15% for G+5 to 0.66% for G+15 buildings in zone III, and from 0.04% to 0.41% respectively in zone II.
State of The Art Report on Steel-Concrete In filled Composite ColumnIJERA Editor
Steel-concrete composite systems for buildings are composed of concrete components that interact with
structural steel components within the same system. By their integral behavior, these components give the
required attributes of strength, stiffness and stability to the overall system. Composite members, as individual
elements of a system, have been in use for a considerable number of years. They consist of composite columns
or trusses, encased or filled composite columns, and steel deck reinforced composite slabs. In this paper, a
review of the research carried out on composite columns with infills is given with emphasis on experimental
work.
Review on Structural Performance of Braced Steel Sturtures Under Dynamic LoadingIRJET Journal
This document reviews the structural performance of braced steel structures under dynamic loading. It discusses three main types of bracings: eccentric braced frames, shape memory alloys, and buckling restrained braces. Eccentric braced frames provide energy dissipation and ductility through a ductile link. Shape memory alloys can regain their original shape after deformation and dissipate energy. Buckling restrained braces prevent buckling of steel braces under seismic loads through a composite action of a steel core encased in mortar. The document reviews various literature studying the seismic behavior and failures of these bracing systems.
IRJET-Comparing the Effect of Earthquake on Shear wall building and Non-Shear...IRJET Journal
This document reviews research on comparing the effect of earthquakes on buildings with and without shear walls. It summarizes several studies that found shear walls help reduce lateral displacement during earthquakes. Shear walls resist horizontal forces and provide stiffness. Openings in shear walls can increase displacement, as can thinner flanges on shear walls. Locating shear walls at corners or in the building core was found to minimize displacement compared to other positions. Studies concluded shear walls substantially reduce earthquake impacts and non-shear wall buildings may need retrofitting in high risk areas. Future research could further examine effects of column flanges and different shear wall placements.

The document analyzes the stress behavior of shear walls and transfer beams due to their interaction. It presents a finite element analysis of a 22-story building model consisting of shear walls, transfer beams, and columns. Two analyses are performed: 1) With vertical loads only to verify the stress behavior matches previous research. 2) With both wind loads and vertical loads to observe stress behavior differences and obtain results for transfer beam design. Based on the second analysis, the transfer beam reinforcement is designed according to CIRIA Guide 2:1977 design standards.

This document provides a literature review that compares the deflection behavior of reinforced concrete (RCC) beams and prestressed concrete beams.
The review includes both analytical and experimental studies. Analytical studies found that RCC beams are more economical than prestressed beams for spans up to around 15-20 meters, but prestressed beams are superior for longer spans as they require smaller cross-sectional dimensions. Experimental studies showed prestressed beams had around 60% less deflection than comparable RCC beams. Studies of different concrete grades found the lowest concrete volume and steel quantity when using higher-strength concrete.
In general, the literature review concluded that RCC beams are suitable for shorter spans up to around 20 meters, but

This document summarizes research on the fundamental natural time period of AAC block infill walls under seismic conditions. It first reviews previous literature that has studied how infill walls affect the behavior of reinforced concrete frames during earthquakes. The literature shows that infill walls increase structural stiffness and strength but reduce ductility. Studies also found that infill type does not significantly impact structural behavior. The document then outlines the objectives of infill walls in construction, such as dividing interior space, providing insulation, and enhancing fire resistance.

Investigate the Use of Shear Walls in Concrete Structures, Considering the Ex...theijes
Buildings with cast-in-situ reinforced concrete shear walls are widespread in manyearthquake-prone countries and regions, such as Canada, Chile, Iran, Romania, Turkey, Colombia, the republics of the former Soviet Union, etc. This type of construction hasbeen practiced since the 1960s in urban regions for medium- to high-rise buildings(4 to 35 stories high). Shear wall buildings are usually regular in plan and in elevation.However, in some buildings, lower floors are used for commercial purposes and thebuildings are characterized with larger plan dimensions at those floors.In this paper, an overview of the various studies conducted on shear walls, Such asExperimental dynamic tests,finite element model, Rocking behavior and nonlinear modeling. So, in the future, the development of FE models of complete buildings will be studied. In the case of a building with several stories, the simplified model of shear wall should be able to account for the overturning phenomenon (the refined model already can). In the case of a single story structure, the main outlook of this work is obviously the development of a FE model and its confrontation to experimental data, which is currently ongoing research.
STUDY ON SEISMIC EFFECT OF HIGH RISE BUILDING SHEAR WALL/WALL WITHOUT SHEAR WALLIAEME Publication
This document analyzes the seismic effects on high-rise buildings with and without shear walls in zones II and III. Analytical models of G+5, G+10, and G+15 buildings were created in STAAD Pro and analyzed using the equivalent static method. Results show that lateral displacement is less in buildings with special moment resisting frames (SMRF) using shear walls compared to ordinary moment resisting frames (OMRF) without shear walls. The maximum difference in storey drift between SMRF and OMRF increases from 0.15% for G+5 to 0.66% for G+15 buildings in zone III, and from 0.04% to 0.41% respectively in zone II.
State of The Art Report on Steel-Concrete In filled Composite ColumnIJERA Editor
Steel-concrete composite systems for buildings are composed of concrete components that interact with
structural steel components within the same system. By their integral behavior, these components give the
required attributes of strength, stiffness and stability to the overall system. Composite members, as individual
elements of a system, have been in use for a considerable number of years. They consist of composite columns
or trusses, encased or filled composite columns, and steel deck reinforced composite slabs. In this paper, a
review of the research carried out on composite columns with infills is given with emphasis on experimental
work.
Review on Structural Performance of Braced Steel Sturtures Under Dynamic LoadingIRJET Journal
This document reviews the structural performance of braced steel structures under dynamic loading. It discusses three main types of bracings: eccentric braced frames, shape memory alloys, and buckling restrained braces. Eccentric braced frames provide energy dissipation and ductility through a ductile link. Shape memory alloys can regain their original shape after deformation and dissipate energy. Buckling restrained braces prevent buckling of steel braces under seismic loads through a composite action of a steel core encased in mortar. The document reviews various literature studying the seismic behavior and failures of these bracing systems.
IRJET-Comparing the Effect of Earthquake on Shear wall building and Non-Shear...IRJET Journal
This document reviews research on comparing the effect of earthquakes on buildings with and without shear walls. It summarizes several studies that found shear walls help reduce lateral displacement during earthquakes. Shear walls resist horizontal forces and provide stiffness. Openings in shear walls can increase displacement, as can thinner flanges on shear walls. Locating shear walls at corners or in the building core was found to minimize displacement compared to other positions. Studies concluded shear walls substantially reduce earthquake impacts and non-shear wall buildings may need retrofitting in high risk areas. Future research could further examine effects of column flanges and different shear wall placements.

Effect of differential settlement on frame forces a parametric studyeSAT Journals
Abstract It has been well established that packed bed solar collectors perform better as compared to conventional collectors. Results of performance studies on packed bed solar collector are available in literature in which different operating conditions have been considered which make it difficult to compare their performance accurately. Considering this comparative study of performance of solar collector with different packing elements has been made in the present work. Experimental investigations on solar collector packed with iron chips, wire mesh, gravels and glass balls for the same set of operating parameter have been done on a single setup to study the effect of packing material and its geometry on the thermal efficiency of packed bed collector. It is observed that iron chips packed collector is identified as the best packing materials out of the materials selected for study leading to thermal efficiency of 76.21% for the mass flow rate of 0.035 kg/s and porosity of 0.945, which is 69.58% higher as compared to smooth collector. Thermal efficiency of wire mesh packed collector for similar operating conditions is found to be 74.26% which is 65.24% higher than smooth collector. In low porosity range gravel packed collector is found to perform better as compared to glass ball packing. Effect of mass flow rate on the effective efficiency has also been conducted for various packing elements used in the present study. Based on the experimental results, plots have been drawn for efficiency against temperature rise parameters for different packing elements which can be used by the designer for choosing the correct value of mass flow rate for the specific temperature rise application. Key Words: Solar Collector, Iron Chips, Wire Mesh, Gravels, Glass Balls, Packed Bed.

The conclusion is that providing drop panels at exterior column corners reduces the need for shear reinforcement, and including cut-outs near drops further improves the punching shear capacity of the slab.
Lateral Load Analysis of Shear Wall and Concrete Braced Multi-Storeyed R.C Fr...ijsrd.com
Generally RC framed structures are designed without regards to structural action of masonry infill walls present. Masonry infill walls are widely used as partitions. These buildings are generally designed as framed structures without regard to structural action of masonry infill walls. They are considered as non- structural elements. RC frame building with open first storey is known as soft storey, which performs poorly during strong earthquake shaking. Past earthquakes are evident that collapses due to soft storeys are most often in RC buildings. In the soft storey, columns are severely stressed and unable to provide adequate shear resistance during the earthquake. . In this study, 3D analytical model of twelve storeyed buildings have been generated for different buildings Models and analyzed using structural analysis tool 'ETABS'. To study the effect of infill, ground soft, bare frame and models with ground soft having concrete core wall and shear walls and concrete bracings at different positions during earthquake; seismic analysis using both linear static, linear dynamic (response spectrum method) has been performed. The analytical model of the building includes all important components that influence the mass, strength, stiffness and deformability of the structure.

Review on seismic performance of multi storied rc building with soft storeyeSAT Journals
Abstract Soft storey is a storey in which the stiffness is less than 70% of the storey above or less than 80% of the combined stiffness of three storeys above. In a multi-storied building, soft storey is adopted to accommodate parking which is an unavoidable feature. This open ground storey is vulnerable to collapse during earthquake. Soft storey in a building causes stiffness irregularity in a structure. Due to this the structures undergoes unequal storey drift, formation of plastic hinges and finally collapse. The presence of infill wall improves the performance of building under the lateral forces. This paper deals with the study of literature of previous researches. These researches focus on the combination of measures adopted on the structure to reduce the effect of soft storey through static and dynamic analysis. The parameters studied in these researches are storey drift, axial and shear forces bending moment, displacement, time period, base shear. Also, it focuses on the equivalent strut approach to consider the effect of infill wall on the performance on building. From these researches, the interest arises to perform static and dynamic analysis to reduce the stiffness irregularity which is the main reason behind the poor performance of the building with soft storey. Keywords: Soft storey, Stiffness, Storey drift, Lateral Displacement, Infill wall

Particle Swarm Optimization–Long Short-Term Memory based Channel Estimation with Hybrid Beam Forming Power Transfer in WSN-IoT Applications
Authors
Reginald Jude Sixtus J and Tamilarasi Muthu, Puducherry Technological University, India
Abstract
Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) helps to overcome various difficulties in future technology wireless communications. NOMA, when utilized with millimeter wave multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, channel estimation becomes extremely difficult. For reaping the benefits of the NOMA and mm-Wave combination, effective channel estimation is required. In this paper, we propose an enhanced particle swarm optimization based long short-term memory estimator network (PSOLSTMEstNet), which is a neural network model that can be employed to forecast the bandwidth required in the mm-Wave MIMO network. The prime advantage of the LSTM is that it has the capability of dynamically adapting to the functioning pattern of fluctuating channel state. The LSTM stage with adaptive coding and modulation enhances the BER.PSO algorithm is employed to optimize input weights of LSTM network. The modified algorithm splits the power by channel condition of every single user. Participants will be first sorted into distinct groups depending upon respective channel conditions, using a hybrid beamforming approach. The network characteristics are fine-estimated using PSO-LSTMEstNet after a rough approximation of channels parameters derived from the received data.

CoVID-19 sprang up in Wuhan China in November 2019 and was declared a pandemic by the in January 2020 World Health Organization (WHO). Like the Spanish flu of 1918 that claimed millions of lives, the COVID-19 has caused the demise of thousands with China, Italy, Spain, USA and India having the highest statistics on infection and mortality rates. Regardless of existing sophisticated technologies and medical science, the spread has continued to surge high. With this COVID-19 Management System, organizations can respond virtually to the COVID-19 pandemic and protect, educate and care for citizens in the community in a quick and effective manner. This comprehensive solution not only helps in containing the virus but also proactively empowers both citizens and care providers to minimize the spread of the virus through targeted strategies and education.

Networking is a telecommunications network that allows computers to exchange data. In
computer networks, networked computing devices pass data to each other along data
connections. Data is transferred in the form of packets. The connections between nodes are
established using either cable media or wireless media.
