Ultra-strong tungsten refractory high-entropy alloy via stepwise controllable coherent nanoprecipitations

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
High-performance refractory alloys with ultrahigh strength and ductility are in demand for a wide range of critical applications, such as plasma-facing components. However, it remains challenging to increase the strength of these alloys without seriously

Improved procedure for determining the ductility of buildings under seismic loads [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Displacement ductility is a parameter that characterizes the seismic response of structures. Moreover, displacement ductility can be used in order to determine whether a structural design, performed according to a specific seismic code or not, may ...

A new methodology to assess the structural capacity of bridge portfolios: application in Northeastern Brazilian bridges

open access: yesRevista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais, 2022
This article presents a new proposal to estimate structural capacity models for bridge portfolios. A common approach is the use of ductility-based capacity models. Herein, a ductility replacement for curvature or drift as engineering demand parameters is

Local versus Global Ductility Demands in Simple Bridges

open access: yesJournal of Structural Engineering, 2001
This paper addresses the inelastic dynamic response of simply supported bridges to ground motion in their transverse direction. The effect of the relative substructure-superstructure flexibility on the inelastic response of bridges was studied for symmetric spans.

Low temperature tensile properties of line pipe steels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Given the expected increase in Arctic oil and gas exploitation, there is a demand for high-strength line pipe steels able to cope with the Arctic climate. The state-of-the-art of the tensile properties of API 5L steels at low temperatures is reviewed and

An efficient methodology to estimate probabilistic seismic damage curves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) is a powerful methodology that can be easily extended for calculating probabilistic seismic damage curves. These curves are metadata to assess the seismic risk of structures.
