Impact behavior of a strengthened bridge substructure under scour and vessel collision
Case Studies in Construction MaterialsWhen subjected to a vessel collision in the presence of scour induced by wave-current or flood, a bridge can sustain more severe damage compared to the pristine bridge undergoing the same impact.

Knocking Off the Street: The Subversive Writings of Hong Kong's Grassroots Kings
City &Society, Volume 38, Issue 2, August 2026.ABSTRACT This article examines how two grassroots street artists in Hong Kong, the King of Kowloon (Tsang Tsou‐choi) and the Plumber King (Yim Chiu‐tong), intervene in the city's everyday visual order. Moving beyond celebratory collective memory narratives and easy analogies to graffiti, it frames their works as subversive urban practices that rework ...

Three‐Dimensional Analytical Model of a Free‐Standing Square Rocking Column
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 8, Page 1710-1727, 10 July 2026.ABSTRACT A three‐dimensional analytical two‐degree‐of‐freedom (2DOF) model is developed to describe the bounded rocking response of free‐standing rigid square columns subjected to bidirectional seismic excitation. The formulation extends Housner's classical planar theory by deriving the full three‐dimensional equations of motion for a column ...

The Effect of Geotextile Layer in Decreasing Local Scour of Cylindrical Bridge Pier
علوم آب و خاک, 2017 Flood currents are considered threatening factors by creating local scour along bridge piers. One method for decreasing local scour is to strengthen the bed against imposed tensions.

Ripple Effects: Social Turmoil Following Infant Kidnapping Attempts in Wild Geladas
Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 7, Page 485-497, July 2026.Graphical abstract illustrating the social consequences of infant kidnapping in wild geladas (Theropithecus gelada). The study monitors a 28‐day period divided into a 14‐day pre‐kidnapping phase and a 14‐day post‐kidnapping phase. ABSTRACT Infant kidnapping is an extreme social disruption reported in some primate species, yet its consequences on social

Investigation on Seismic Performance of Bridge with Self-centering Friction Dampers
工程科学与技术, 2018 Seismic isolation has been already applied in bridges widely. It will inevitably cause large post-earthquake residual displacement between bridge superstructure and substructure.
