Rocking and Rolling of Rigid Polygons Under Seismic Excitation

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present an event driven analytical framework for rigid cyclic polygons subjected to horizontal ground excitation in which uplift, impact, and successive pivot switching are treated within a unified non‐smooth dynamical description. Rolling is defined as a sequence of energetically admissible transitions between neighbouring vertices tied to

Climate Driven Water Table Changes and Their Influence on Liquefaction Response of Integral Bridges

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Integral abutment bridges (IABs) eliminate bearings and joints but transfer seismic demand directly into the surrounding soil, making their response highly sensitive to groundwater conditions and soil–structure interaction. This study presents a 60 g centrifuge testing programme on single‐span IABs designed to isolate the influence of water ...

Calorie‐Free Menus as a Potential Mitigation Strategy for Mandatory Calorie Labelling: Evidence From People With Disordered Eating in England

European Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Since the introduction of mandatory out‐of‐home calorie labelling in England, concerns have been raised about potential negative impacts on people with disordered eating. To mitigate these concerns, food outlets can provide calorie‐free menus on request.

Eating Disorder Clinician Views About the Impact of Out‐of‐Home Calorie Labelling on Their Patients: A Qualitative Interview Study

European Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Accumulating evidence suggests that people with eating disorders experience mainly negative impacts of out‐of‐home calorie labelling. This study explored eating disorder clinician perspectives on how such labels affect individuals with eating disorders, and their views on implementation of this policy.

Flammability of Facades Across Scales and International Standards

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Facade fires are a rare but destructive hazard that can lead to the rapid spread of fire between the floors and fire compartments of a building. Today, there are at least 21 different national standards for facade fire tests in use around the world, which seek to categorize facades based on their flammability.
