Effective axial strength of laterally strengthened RC pier heads with post‐tensioning method
Abstract This study investigates the structural performance enhancement of reinforced concrete (RC) pier heads laterally strengthened with unbonded post‐tensioning (PT) to accommodate increased design loads following a deck replacement of an existing railway bridge.

Abstract In this essay I reveal contested common infrastructures in the interplay between vanishing public infrastructures in Venice and lack of care by governmental actors in a city with a shrinking number of inhabitants. I examine care and commodified public infrastructures in heritage cities facing mass tourism and climate change effects by zooming ...

BEHIND THE FACES OF AESTHETICIZED URBANISM IN TUNXI, CHINA
Abstract Urban policy in China has become increasingly predicated on securing an approved aesthetic that reflects ideological campaigns and political programmes. In highlighting the role of the aesthetic in Chinese urbanism, this article argues that the party‐state draws on an aesthetic palette that places the contemporary urban landscape in a ...

Shaking Table Tests of Curved Bridge considering Bearing Friction Sliding Isolation
Specific to severe damage to curved bridges in earthquakes caused by the excessive force of the fixed bearings and piers, a new seismic design method on curved bridges considering bearing friction sliding isolation is proposed in this paper.

300 Years of Degradation in Wales Estuaries and Coasts
ABSTRACT The world's oceans are in a severe state of degradation, yet our understanding of that degradation is often based on changes observed only in the past 20–50 years. This narrow view leads to marine conservation efforts that aim to preserve already degraded ecosystems, shaped by shifted ecological baselines.

Dynamic Wave Trains: A Procedural Approach to Spatially Varying Ocean Synthesis
In this paper, we present a high performance procedural model capable of synthesizing and rendering a virtually infinite ocean. Our method exhibits spatial variations as the orientations, speed and choppiness of the waves is parametrized for each frequencies and each point in space. The provided visual abstract exhibits a sunset rendering of a large 40
