Experimental study and numerical analysis of progressive collapse resistance of composite frames [PDF]
, 2013 A partial damage caused by an abnormal load could trigger progressive collapse of high rise buildings which may lead to terrible casualties. However, in the process of column failure, "catenary action" plays an important role in redistributing the ...

Assessment of the worthwhileness of efficient driving in railway systems with high-receptivity power supplies [PDF]
, 2020 Eco-driving is one of the most important strategies for significantly reducing the energy consumption of railways with low investments. It consists of designing a way of driving a train to fulfil a target running time, consuming the minimum amount of ...

Transactions of the VŠB: Technical University of Ostrava, Civil Engineering Series, 2015 The present document is dedicated to global behavior of a frame further to the loss of a column, taking into account the redistribution of the internal forces. Structural elements, transfer the load to the foundation, are isolated as key elements.

Center Vortices, Area Law and the Catenary Solution
, 2015 We present meson-meson (Wilson loop) correlators in Z(2) center vortex models for the infrared sector of Yang-Mills theory, i.e., a hypercubic lattice model of random vortex surfaces and a continuous 2+1 dimensional model of random vortex lines.

Experimental Tests of Steel Unstiffened Double Side Joints with Flush and Extended End Plate
Archives of Civil Engineering, 2019 Experimental tests of steel unstiffened double side bolted end-plate joints have been presented. The main aim of the conducted tests was to check the behavior of joints in an accidental situation and possibility of creating secondary mechanism, i.e ...

Explicit formulas for a continuous stochastic maturation model. Application to anticancer drug pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics [PDF]
, 2008 We present a continuous time model of maturation and survival, obtained as the limit of a compartmental evolution model when the number of compartments tends to infinity.

Progressive Collapse Resistance of Steel Frames with Reduced Beam Sections and Web Openings
BuildingsProgressive collapse represents a critical failure scenario in steel moment-resisting frames, especially when beam sections are intentionally weakened through flange cuts or web openings.
