Deep Reinforcement Learning‐Based Control for Real‐Time Hybrid Simulation of Civil Structures

open access: yesInternational Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Real‐time Hybrid Simulation (RTHS) is a cyber‐physical technique that studies the dynamic behavior of a system by combining physical and numerical components that are coupled through a boundary condition enforcer. In structural engineering, the numerical components are subjected to environmental loads that become dynamic displacements of the ...

Aseismic Experimental Research on Safety-Belt System of a Low-Gravity-Center Cable-Stayed Bridge

open access: yesBuildings
The seismic performance of low-gravity-center cable-stayed bridges is influenced by their structural system. This paper introduces a novel anti-seismic structural system designed to enhance the earthquake resistance of low-gravity-center cable-stayed ...

Bond‐slip modeling for reinforced concrete beam‐column joints with plain reinforcement bars: Insights from numerical validation

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The previous seismic events indicated the vulnerability of old reinforced concrete (RC) structures against earthquakes due to the absence of seismic detailing and capacity design specifications in such buildings. In this context, beam‐column joints (BCJ) of the existing RC structures built before the 1970s have exhibited poor structural ...

Shaking Table Test of High Performance RAC Frame Structure under Rare Earthquake

open access: yesAdvances in Computer Science Research, 2015
seismic resistance capacity; Abstract.The high performance recycled aggregate concrete(RAC)is a kind of RAC mixed in proportion of hybrid fiber and silica fume.Its main characteristic is to make up for the imperfections of RAC.In order to study the frame seismic performance,a 1:4 scale high performance RAC frame model was made.With the replacement of ...

Post‐earthquake field assessment and damage correlation of elevated reinforced concrete water tanks in Kahramanmaras/Elbistan, Türkiye

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study evaluates the seismic performance of elevated reinforced concrete (RC) water tanks in the Elbistan region following the February 6, 2023 Kahramanmaras–Elbistan earthquakes. Field investigations, visual damage surveys, non‐destructive testing (ultrasonic pulse velocity—UPV), concrete compressive strength measurements, peak ground ...

Teaching Through Trauma: English Teachers Navigating Affective Regimes in Post‐Earthquake Türkiye

open access: yesTESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This study explores how English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers in post‐earthquake Türkiye narrated their experiences of loss, survival, and teaching within state‐imposed affective regimes. Drawing on an affective–discursive analysis of Ministry of National Education (MoNE) documents and media texts, the study first investigates how ...

Effects of Equipment-Structure-Soil Interaction on Seismic Response of Equipment and Structure via Real-Time Dynamic Substructuring Shaking Table Testing

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2017
Equation of motion for an equipment-structure-soil (ESS) interaction system was derived using the branch substructure method. After rearrangement, this equation was applied to real-time dynamic substructuring shaking table (RTDSST) testing of the ESS ...

Experimental study on the applicability of Westergaard’s formula for calculating earthquake-induced hydrodynamic pressure in small lake

open access: yesJournal of Modern Transportation, 2017
Moraine-dammed lake outbursts usually threaten highways, railways, and key facilities in alpine regions. The varying amplitudes and distribution of hydrodynamic pressures significantly affect the stability of the dam.
