Covariance Structure Modeling of Engineering Demand Parameters in Cloud‐Based Seismic Analysis

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Probabilistic seismic demand modeling aims to estimate structural demand as a function of ground motion intensity—a critical stage in seismic risk assessment. Although many models exist to describe the structural demand, few consider the covariance among engineering demand parameters, potentially overlooking a key factor in improving the ...

Comparative study on indoor fungi growth incorporated with different antifungal and wall finishings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Indoor air quality is important to the health and comfort of building occupants. There are many sources of pollutants that can be found in the building. One of the sources of pollutants is fungus. Fungi are present almost everywhere in indoor and outdoor

Characteristics of Deformation and Damage of Multi‐Thin Composite Oil Shale Top Plate Under the Influence of Different Factors

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
In this study, the key control mechanism of surrounding rock stability is revealed by theoretical analysis and UDEC‐Trigon numerical simulation method, aiming at the problem that oil shale roof is prone to separation and slip deformation under complex stress.

Early use of the reinforced concrete in the architecture of the Historicism in Austria–Hungary

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The study examines the early incorporation of reinforced concrete in the architecture of Historicism in Austria–Hungary. Spanning the late 19th to early 20th centuries, the research illuminates the period's stylistic pluralism and the transformative impact of reinforced concrete.

Sensitivity Analysis of Steel Box-Section Girders. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The paper deals with the load–carrying capacity stochastic variance based sensitivity analysis of thin–walled box–section girder subjected to pure bending. The lower– and uppe-r-bound load–capacity estimation is performed. The methodology is based on the

The clashing of in situ and pre‐cast technologies—Western trends and local traditions in concrete engineering shaping shell construction in 20th‐century Hungary

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract After a blossoming pre‐World War II (WWII) period, the concrete construction industry in then‐socialist Hungary existed in a relative isolation from the Western World during the mid‐20th century. In this paper, we focus on the body of work of one of the then newly established state‐owned design offices, IPARTERV, to show how the isolation ...

Performance analysis of strengthening reinforced concrete beams under pure torsion using galvanized steel sheets: Experimental and numerical investigation

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Reinforced concrete (RC) beams can be subjected to torsion, and failure due to torsion is brittle and poses a significant risk to occupants. Moreover, strengthening of existing RC beams in torsion may be required due to the upgrade of the structures or as part of structural rehabilitation.
