The EU's Strategy for Sustainability: A Landmark Turn With the European Green Deal?

European Policy Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While the European Green Deal (EGD) has been widely recognized as a milestone in the EU's sustainability strategy, scholars disagree on the nature of the policy change it represents. Critics highlight its limited social and environmental ambitions, despite its portrayal as a “man on the moon” moment.

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

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
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.

Seismic Assessment Procedure for Exterior Reinforced Concrete Beam–Column Joints With Slab and Transverse Beams

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article presents a capacity‐based assessment procedure for beam–column (b–c) joints of reinforced concrete frames with floor slabs and transverse beams. The procedure extends a previously proposed assessment methodology for determining the hierarchy of strengths and the sequence of events in symmetrically reinforced planar b–c joints.

Nonlinear Response‐History Analyses of Masonry and Mixed Structures With HybriDFEM

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The hybrid discrete‐finite element (HybriDFEM) method, previously developed to perform static and modal analysis in discrete and coupled discrete‐finite element models, is extended to nonlinear response‐history analyses. The equations of motion for the HybriDFEM model are solved through various numerical time‐integration schemes, both explicit

Generalised Kinematic Single‐Impact and Multi‐Impact Models for Rocking Structures

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rocking motion is fundamental in earthquake engineering, as it reflects the dynamic behaviour of many structural systems. However, simulating the impacts during rocking motion remains a challenging topic, as they occur in a very short time, generate high impulsive forces, cause sudden changes in velocities and result in rapid energy losses.
