Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a Fiber Reinforced Polymer/Plastic (FRP) composite spiral stirrup confined concrete column and a compression design method. The FRP composite spiral stirrup includes an internal FRP spiral stirrup and an external FRP square stirrup. In the form of the FRP composite spiral stirrup, effective transverse stress transfer is established by effectively binding stirrups, which can give full play to the mechanical properties of the FRP bars, provide “dual confinement” for core concrete, and greatly improve the peak stress of the core concrete. Confining mechanisms of the FRP composite spiral stirrup to the concrete in different areas are analyzed, a confinement model and a bearing capacity calculation method for the FRP composite spiral stirrup confined concrete column are proposed, and a design method for the FRP composite spiral stirrup confined concrete column is proposed after an accurate calculation method for the bearing capacity is obtained.

Abstract: A user action associated with a content item performed by a target user is detected. Information describing online publishers that delivered the content item to the target user is retrieved. For each publisher, a likelihood that the user action would have occurred without the publisher's delivery of the content item to the target user is determined. An estimated increase in the likelihood that the user action occurred due to the publisher's delivery of the content item to the target user is determined. A baseline value indicating a likelihood that the user action would have occurred without delivery of the content item to the target user by any publishers is estimated based on attributes for the target user. A performance metric is determined for each publisher, wherein ratios of the metrics are scaled based on the baseline value and are related based on corresponding ratios of the estimated increases in likelihoods.
