Seismic Design Gaps and Link Innovations: Evaluating Gusset Connected Box and I‐Shaped Links in Multi‐Tiered EBFs

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This study addresses a critical gap in seismic design codes by evaluating the nonlinear performance of multi‐tiered eccentrically braced frames (MT‐EBFs) and offering practical recommendations for future provisions. MT‐EBFs, an advanced variation of conventional EBFs, incorporate multiple tiers of links and braces within a single story, making them ...

Buckling and postbuckling behaviour of gabled frames

open access: yesMathematical and Computer Modelling, 1990
With the continuing trend toward optimization of engineering structures it can be expected that buckling, and in particular imperfection sensitive forms of buckling, will increasingly govern design. This study investigates the buckling and postbuckling behaviour of planar steel gabled frames under static loading.

Optimization of Shell Structures with Fuzzy Probability‐Based Random Fields Using Artificial Neural Networks

open access: yesProceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 25, Issue 4, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The structural design optimization aims for robust structures with minimal use of material resources, leading to slender and thin‐walled structures, which entail a higher risk of stability problems. This issue is further influenced by geometrical imperfections, which are subjected to uncertainties.

Architected Lattices with a Topological Transition

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 27, Issue 11, June 2025.
This article develops topological metamaterials showing multidirectional two‐step deformation under compression by embedding contact‐enabled topological mechanisms into lattice structures. Experiments on 3D‐printed 2D and 3D lattices and finite element simulations are conducted to demonstrate the working principle of the topological metamaterials.
