Numerical investigation of the behaviour of bolted and welded top and seat angle connection in progressive collapse of steel structures [PDF]
After failure of a column in structure by an abnormal loading, undesirable performance and damage of connections of the beams connected to the top of this column, can lead to the local failure of floor and in turn result in progressive collapse in the ...

Macro Modeling of Column Removal in RC Frames with Consideration of Importance Factor and Infill Walls [PDF]
In this study, the effect of importance factor (IF) on RC frames with and without infill walls, in both with and without opening conditions, is evaluated against progressive collapse.

Benchmark Numerical Model for Progressive Collapse Analysis of RC Beam-Column Sub-Assemblages
The pertinence of the fiber element approach to enable thorough numerical investigation on the potential for progressive collapse of reinforced concrete (RC) frame structures owing to interior column exclusion is examined using twenty-nine RC sub ...

Experimental and Numerical Investigation on Progressive Collapse Resistance of Post-tensioned Precast Concrete Beam-Column Sub-assemblages [PDF]
In this paper, four 1/2 scaled precast concrete (PC) beam-column sub-assemblages with high performance connection were tested under push-down loading procedure to study the load resisting mechanism of PC frames subjected to different column removal ...

Behaviour of precast concrete beam–column sub-assemblages subject to column removal [PDF]
Abstract Under column removal scenarios, initiation of alternate load paths via adjacent bridging beams to redistribute vertical loads requires certain level of ductility and continuity in beam–column joints. Although this approach does not consider the magnitude of the blast event, it is threat-independent and offers a minimum level of robustness ...

The Effect of Filtration with Natural Esker Sand on the Removal of Organic Carbon and Suspended Solids from the Effluent of Experimental Recirculating Aquaculture Systems [PDF]
We studied the effect of sand filtration with natural esker material on the removal of total organic carbon (TOC), total suspended solids (TSS), and turbidity from the effluent of an experimental recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) farm.
