Dynamic Test of Negative Stiffness Damped Outrigger With Damping Amplification
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 54, Issue 4, Page 1141-1155, 10 April 2025.ABSTRACT This paper proposed a novel negative stiffness damped outrigger with damping amplification (NSDO‐DA) through a smart combination of an L‐shape lever, a precompressed disc spring brace (DSB), and a viscous damper. A theoretical model of the NSDO‐DA considering nonlinear adaptive negative stiffness, damping amplification of nonlinear viscous ...

Ecology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 4, April 2025.Urban bird communities are more colour‐diverse after accounting for species richness. We also found that bird species that do well in urban environments are less likely to be brown and exhibit more elaborate colours, but not higher sexual dichromatism. ABSTRACT Rapidly expanding urbanisation presents significant challenges to wildlife.

Bearing capacity calculation of reinforced concrete corbels under the shear action
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018 The necessity of creating a general methodology for concrete and reinforced concrete elements strength calculation under the shear is established. Three failure cases of reinforced concrete corbels under the shear are considered.

Predicting the Shear Strength of Fiber Reinforced Concrete Corbels Via Support Vector Machines
Cumhuriyet Science Journal, 2018 Precast corbels are commonly preferred structural members in industrialbuildings. In this study, a novel application of support vector machines (SVM)is employed for the prediction of ultimate shear strength of fiber reinforcedcorbels, for the first time ...

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 3, Issue 2, April 2025.Abstract In France, the presence of marine microalgae of the genus Ostreopsis has been identified repeatedly on the Mediterranean coast for several years, whereas on the French Basque coasts its presence is much more recent. In the summers of 2021 and 2022, major Ostreopsis flowering episodes were reported on the Basque coast, resulting in several ...
