Numerical Estimation of Seismic Earth Pressure on Walls of Basements Underlain by Bedrock
ABSTRACT Dynamic increment of earth pressure is one of the primary parameters in the seismic design of underground basement structures. Both analytical solution and empirical methods developed for rigid walls have been used to estimate the seismic earth pressure.

Friction Characterization and Mitigation in Large‐Scale 6DOF Multi‐Axial Hybrid Simulation
ABSTRACT In the last few decades, hybrid simulation has become widely used for understanding the response of structural components and systems under extreme loading conditions. Large‐scale, three‐dimensional (3D), multi‐axial testing facilities with six degrees of freedom (6DOF) are versatile testing systems that can be used for testing a variety of ...

The Impact of Phase Change Materials on Electricity Consumption in Prefabricated Temporary Houses
The effectiveness of phase change material (PCM) integration was evaluated over a 1‐month period under winter climate conditions, with electricity consumption serving as the primary metric. According to the results, the incorporation of PCMs led to a reduction in average electricity consumption by 16%, weighted average electricity consumption by 16.2%,
