Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article presents a capacity‐based assessment procedure for beam–column (b–c) joints of reinforced concrete frames with floor slabs and transverse beams. The procedure extends a previously proposed assessment methodology for determining the hierarchy of strengths and the sequence of events in symmetrically reinforced planar b–c joints.

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Damage to non‐structural elements significantly impacts the seismic performance of buildings in terms of economic and functionality losses. Consequently, performance‐based seismic design of non‐structural elements has become a key pillar of a comprehensive building‐seismic resilience strategy, for instance, through loss‐targeted earthquake ...

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

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.This work reveals the “C‐Y,” double “Y,” “π,” and “Y” fracture modes of thick, hard strata and their progressive breaking process (O‐F‐R/S mode), providing a theoretical basis for controlling strong ground pressure in deep mining. ABSTRACT In response to the dynamic hazards caused by the fracture of thick‐hard strata in deep mining, this study ...

Reliability and Degradation Mechanisms of Photovoltaic Modules in Pakistan
Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.Reliability of the PV module. ABSTRACT The number of photovoltaic (PV) installations has grown rapidly in the last 10 years in Pakistan due to the growing electricity demand, the availability of favourable solar resources, and the national renewable energy objectives.

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.A hybrid Fuzzy–SVM framework for real‐time dust detection and thermal mapping in PV panels. ABSTRACT Dust accumulation significantly degrades the energy output of photovoltaic (PV) panels, particularly in arid and semi‐arid regions. While existing studies have separately explored image‐based dust detection, environmental modeling, and machine learning (
