Damping Modification Factors for Pile–Induced Filtering Effect

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Period–dependent Damping Modification Factors are usually applied to the 5%–damped pseudo–acceleration response spectrum at free field conditions to derive the seismic demand for structures with damping ratio other than 5%. Likewise, the response spectrum at the foundation level of pile–supported structures may differ from the free field ...

Finite Element Modeling of a Thermoplastic Polyurethane Ball for Rolling Seismic Isolation

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Elastomeric‐Ball Pendulum (EBP) system, which consists of an elastomeric ball rolling on a spherical concrete surface, has been proposed as an isolation system for lightweight structures. Experimental tests have shown that the mechanics of such a rolling ball are remarkably complicated because the vertical load changes the shape of the ...

Eating Attitudes and Anthropometric Indices of Adult Women in Performance Dance: A Case‐Control Study in Greece

European Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Dancers are at an increased risk of developing eating disorders and health issues. The aim of this case‐control study was to compare dietary intake, anthropometric indices and eating attitudes of adult professional dancers to their age‐ and sex‐matched non‐dancer females.

Pre‐Treatment Fear of Weight Gain Is Associated With Engagement in a Greater Degree of Pre‐Treatment Maladaptive Exercise Among Individuals With Binge‐Spectrum Eating Disorders

European Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Individuals with binge‐spectrum eating disorders (EDs) engage in varying degrees of maladaptive and adaptive exercise. Elevated shape/weight concern is associated with engagement in maladaptive and adaptive exercise. No research has examined whether specific facets of shape/weight concern (e.g., fear of weight gain) are associated ...

An Experimental Investigation on the Impact of Burner Height and Location on the Characteristics of Externally Venting Flames

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fire sources in actual compartment fires exhibit a predominantly uneven spatial distribution. In this context, the impact of the height and location of the fire source, as well as the heat release rate (HRR) of the fire, on the thermal characteristics of Externally Venting Flames (EVF) is experimentally investigated.
