Evaluation of behavior of reinforced concrete shear wall with irregular opening due to near-fault earthquake [PDF]
The increasing need for tall buildings seems to be more prominent than ever with the growth of urbanization and the reduction of urban space. The seismic performance of tall buildings against earthquake and wind forces is known as their main feature ...

Application of Soil Structure Interaction on Building with Basement using Nonlinear Soil Springs
In a typical building design, the interaction between building and surrounding soils is often ignored. Since soil is deformable and has limited capacity to resist loads, this interaction, called soil-structure interaction (SSI), could alter building ...

Platform-based Shear Force Sensor [PDF]
In this paper, we will present the development of a flexible fiber optic bend loss sensor for the measurement of plantar pressure and shear stress for diabetic patients. The sensor will allow the measurement of shear stress on the foot, which is a critical parameter in studying diabetic foot ulcers. The basic configuration of the optical sensor systems
