Structural Effects of Vertical Non‐Skeletal Elements (NSEs) With Rocking Mechanisms
ABSTRACT This paper introduces the structural effects provided by vertical non‐skeletal elements (NSEs), such as claddings and partitions, with vertical slotted holes at their supports to enable rocking as the frame undergoes significant lateral deformation.

ABSTRACT Conventional unbonded elastomeric bearings (ULNRs) are cost‐effective but prone to sliding during earthquakes due to their limited shear deformability. Unbonded Steel‐Mesh‐Reinforced Rubber Bearings (USRBs) offer a solution with increased deformation capacity.

Surface deformation is an important tool for studying active volcanoes. Numerical deformation models can consider irregular features like crustal heterogeneity and avoid biases due to oversimplification. Dynamic elastic moduli can be derived from seismic

ABSTRACT This study explores the seismic performance of a five‐story prototype building using different configurations of a dual lateral force‐resisting system (LFRS) combining post‐tensioned cross‐laminated timber rocking walls (PT‐CLT‐RW) with conventional wood light‐frame shear walls (LiFS).

Radiometric Constraints on the Timing, Tempo, and Effects of Large Igneous Province Emplacement
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

ABSTRACT Five lap‐spliced circular hoop (CH) concrete bridge columns, designed in accordance with the current Japanese bridge design code and Taiwan bridge design practice, were tested in this study to investigate the effects of longitudinal reinforcement and aspect ratios on deteriorated hysteresis behavior.

ABSTRACT Higher‐mode effects can significantly amplify seismic demands in high‐rise buildings, causing unintended damage over the building height. Engineered mechanisms are introduced at the base of these structures to mitigate higher‐mode effects. Existing continuum formulations for base‐flexible buildings commonly idealize the superstructure as a ...
