Numerical and Experimental Evaluation of a Simplified Lateral Spring Formulation for Rocking Structures

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rocking podium isolation systems have gained significant research interest as a method of limiting seismic demands on superstructures and eliminating residual post‐earthquake drifts through self‐centring behaviour. However, while numerous models of varying complexity, including analytical, phenomenological, and physical formulations, have been

Three‐Dimensional Analytical Model of a Podium Structure With Rocking Columns of Square Cross Section

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Allowing structural systems to uplift and rock during seismic excitation has emerged as an effective and inherently self‑centering form of seismic isolation. This paper develops a computationally efficient 3D analytical model suitable for the understanding of the behavior of rocking bridges.

Displacement Estimation of Structures With Flag‐Shaped Hysteresis Loops

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Time‐history analyses were conducted on single‐degree‐of‐freedom (SDOF) systems with flag‐shaped hysteresis loops using a far‐field ground motion suite to estimate peak displacements, Δp, and equivalent deformation cycles, Nc, associated with cumulative displacement demands.

Verification of an Incompressible Viscoelastic Flow Solver Using the Method of Manufactured Solutions for Oldroyd‐B and Giesekus Constitutive Models

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.
This study utilizes the Method of Manufactured Solutions (MMS) to validate high‐order compact finite‐difference schemes for 2D incompressible viscoelastic flows. By applying Oldroyd‐B and Giesekus models to a lid‐driven cavity benchmark, the researchers rigorously assessed numerical accuracy across varying Reynolds and Weissenberg numbers.

Hole transporting materials in inverted flexible perovskite solar cells: Challenges, progress, and perspectives

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
The buried interface is a critical determinant of efficiency and stability in inverted flexible perovskite solar cells (IFPSCs). This Perspective summarizes advances in hole transporting materials for IFPSCs, including polymeric, small‐molecule, inorganic, and hybrid systems, and discusses the prospects and feasibility of emerging molecular design and ...
