INTERVAL SERVICEABILITY ASSESSMENT OF FOOTBRIDGES [PDF]
This paper studies serviceability assessment of footbridges through a non-deterministic approach. The parameters defining pedestrian-induced loading and the structural dynamic properties are characterized through possible ranges of variation. Starting from analytical expressions for the spectral moments of the structural response, the improved interval

Must Longtermists Wish Us All Dead? A Quadrilemma
ABSTRACT Longtermists assign great moral importance to making the long‐term future as good as possible, especially by ensuring the survival of humanity. We argue, to the contrary, that on assumptions that are plausible, conservative, or shared by leading longtermists, human extinction will likely augment total utility among human and non‐human animals ...

Feared self and responsibility in obsessive compulsive phenomena
Abstract Objectives This study investigated the roles of feared self and inflated responsibility in obsessive–compulsive tendencies through an online experiment. Design A total of 185 participants (Mage = 28.11, SD = 9.12) were randomly assigned to either a heightened responsibility or control condition, then primed with feared self scenarios (morality

Exploring the potential of Textile Reinforced Concrete for corrosion‐insensitive retaining walls
Abstract In a context where durability concerns, particularly the corrosion of steel reinforcement, remain a critical challenge for conventional reinforced concrete structures under severe exposure, Textile Reinforced Concrete (TRC) is emerging as a promising alternative.

Forced vibration tests carried out on a laminated timber footbridge: comparisons five years apart
The aim of this work concerns the analysis and comparison of those modal parameters which are obtained by assessing two forced vibration tests, experienced on a laminated timber footbridge. The two tests were carried out five years apart to verify if the

Interpolation categories for conformal embeddings
Abstract In this paper, we give a diagrammatic description of the categories of modules coming from the conformal embeddings V(slN,N)⊂V(soN2−1,1)$\mathcal{V}({\mathfrak{sl}}_{N},N)\subset \mathcal{V}({\mathfrak{so}}_{{N}^{2}-1},1)$. A small variant of this construction (morally corresponding to a conformal embedding of glN${\mathfrak{gl}}_{N}$ level N ...
