Behavior of Long‐Slotted Perforated Steel Plate Fuses in Timber Brace End Connections
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 1247-1269, May 2026.ABSTRACT Steel perforated plate fuses have emerged as a promising solution for mass timber seismic force‐resisting systems, offering tunable energy dissipation mechanisms, such as flexural and shear yielding, through geometric adjustments. This study examines the cyclic performance of perforated steel plate fuses employed in timber braced frames, with ...

Mechanical performance analysis in bending of glulam beams reinforced with synthetic Vectran fibres
Ambiente Construído, 2023 Synthetic fibres applied as reinforcement in glued laminated timber (glulam) intend to increase the mechanical performance of beams, changing the brittle to ductile mechanical behaviour of wooden beams. This paper investigates the experimental results of

Proceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 25, Issue 4, December 2025.ABSTRACT The structural design optimization aims for robust structures with minimal use of material resources, leading to slender and thin‐walled structures, which entail a higher risk of stability problems. This issue is further influenced by geometrical imperfections, which are subjected to uncertainties.
