Effect of irregularity on seismic design parameters of RC-infilled structures
Magazine of Civil Engineering, 2021 A four-storey reinforced concrete (RC) building is seismically evaluated with the incorporation of different irregularities. Three model systems have been considered, i.e., model I: (RC-infilled regular frame in X and Y direction), model II: (RC-infilled

Influence of Masonry Infill on Seismic Design Factors of Reinforced-Concrete Buildings
Shock and Vibration, 2022 Infill walls are the most common separator panels in typical reinforced-concrete (RC) frame structures. It is crucial to investigate the influence of the infill walls on the earthquake behavior of RC frames.

Adaptive Pushover Analysis of Irregular RC Moment Resisting Frames
Kalpa Publications in Civil Engineering, 2018 Researchers and engineers certainly prefer to use nonlinear static methods over complicated nonlinear time-history methods. However, in nonlinear static procedure both predetermined target displacement and force distribution pattern are based on a false assumption that the structural behavior and its responses are dominated by the fundamental vibration

Children &Society, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract As a primary source for the early ages, picture books guide preschool children's gender perception through stories and illustrations. However, previous studies have criticised an overall gender inequality in children's picture books. Compared to the increasing attention on gender diversity in the UK picture book industry, there has been little
