The origin of IRS 16: dynamically driven inspiral of a dense star cluster to the Galactic center? [PDF]
, 2003 We use direct N-body simulations to study the inspiral and internal evolution of dense star clusters near the Galactic center. These clusters sink toward the center due to dynamical friction with the stellar background, and may go into core collapse ...

Infrastructures, 2018 Progressive collapse, the extensive or complete collapse of a structure resulting from the failure of one or a small number of structural components, has become a focus of research efforts and design considerations following events occurring at the Ronan

Applied Sciences, 2021 The alternative load path method is widely used to assess the progressive collapse performance of reinforced concrete structures. As an alternative to an accurate non–linear dynamic analysis, an energy–based method (EBM) can also be adopted to ...

A review of progressive collapse research and regulations [PDF]
, 2014 History has demonstrated that buildings designed to conventional design codes can lack the robustness necessary to withstand localised damage, partial or even complete collapse. This variable performance has led governmental organisations to seek ways of

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2020 Accidental loads such as explosion and vehicle impact could lead to failure of one or several load-bearing members in the structures, which is likely to trigger disproportionate progressive collapse of overall structures.

Disproportionate collapse analysis of mid-rise cross-laminated timber buildings [PDF]
, 2018 This paper investigates the structural behaviour of a twelve-storey Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) building subjected to sudden removal of internal and external ground floor loadbearing walls, and computes the probability of disproportionate collapse ...

Nonlinear analysis on progressive collapse of tall steel composite buildings
Case Studies in Construction Materials, 2018 Progressive collapse is defined as the expansion of an initial local failure of an element into another element of the structure and ultimately leading to the collapse of the whole structure or a large part of it in a disproportionate way.

Progressive collapse risk analysis: literature survey, relevant construction standards and guidelines [PDF]
, 2012 A technical literature survey has been conducted concerning the problems of building robustness and progressive collapse. These issues gained special interest in construction after the partial collapse of the Ronan Point apartment building in London in ...

Ventricular response during lungeing exercise in horses with lone atrial fibrillation [PDF]
, 2013 Reasons for performing the study Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most important dysrhythmia affecting performance in horses and has been associated with incoordination, collapse and sudden death.
