Low‐Cost Friction‐Based Force‐Limiting Connection With Reduced Sensitivity to Machining Tolerances and Accelerated Repairability

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 1270-1291, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a novel yet practical friction‐based structural component design for low‐damage earthquake‐resistant structures. The proposed connection design is based on a conventional slotted‐bolted configuration with the novelty being the use of loose steel washer plates to establish the friction‐sliding interface.

MACHINE LEARNING APPLICATIONS FOR EVALUATING FIRE PERFORMANCE OF STEEL‐FRAMED BUILDINGS: A REVIEW

open access: yesce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 1, Page 412-423, April 2026.
Abstract Machine Learning (ML) is increasingly applied to evaluate the fire performance of steel‐framed buildings, from predicting material behaviour at elevated temperatures to estimating member resistance and system‐level collapse. Recent advances include interpretable models, physics‐informed methods, and emerging surrogate strategies that embed ...

Modeling the Probability of Tsunami Fire Ignition Based on Data From the 2011 Tohoku and 2024 Noto Peninsula Earthquakes, With Recommendations to Reduce Emerging Fire Risk in Tsunami Vertical Evacuation Structures

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 5, Page 1116-1133, 25 April 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent tsunamigenic earthquakes in Japan have highlighted the emerging fire hazard triggered by tsunami inundation and its impact on tsunami vertical evacuation (TVE) structures. This new type of fire following earthquake, referred to as “tsunami fires,” may be a potential universal hazard that tsunami‐prone countries face; however, it has not

Finite element analysis and empirical design models for the flexural capacity of reinforced concrete beams enclosing smooth and perforated cold formed sections

open access: yesDiscover Civil Engineering
This study investigates the flexural behavior of reinforced concrete beams encasing smooth and perforated cold-formed steel (CFS) sections. A comprehensive three-dimensional nonlinear finite element (FE) model was developed in ANSYS to simulate the load ...

Numerical study of the behavior of the bolted shear connection in cold-formed steel-concrete composite beam

open access: yes, 2022
Nowadays, composite steel-concrete systems are among the most cost-effective construction systems for application in multi-storey buildings as they combine structural efficiency and allow accelerated construction speed. Additional optimisation of these systems is possible through the application of cold- formed steel elements and innovative solutions ...
