Calibration of model parameters for the cyclic response of end-plate beam-to-column steel-concrete composite joints [PDF]
, 2009 Composite joints, considering the composite action of steel and concrete, exhibit, in general, high strength and high ductility. As a consequence, the use of this type of joint has been increasing in many countries, especially in those that are located

Influence of Stirrup-Tie Shape on Inelastic Cyclic Response of Flanged Reinforced Concrete Flexural Members [PDF]
, 1981 Three reinforced concrete flanged sections (T-sections) having different shapes of shear reinforcement were subjected to cyclic inelastic flexure representative of what framed structure members might-be forced to endure during a severe earthquake. The

Occasion and audience as poetic constructs in early modern occasional poetry
Orbis Litterarum, EarlyView.Abstract Occasional poetry, composed for specific events such as weddings or funerals, was a dominant form of poetry in early modern Europe. Despite its historical prominence, the role of the occasion as a literary and rhetorical construct in occasional poetry has been very little studied.

Animal Segregation: The Biopolitics of Concentrated Pig Farming
Tijdschrift voor Economische en Sociale Geografie, EarlyView.Abstract This paper explores the possibility to think through the concept of animal segregation to understand the more‐than‐human geographies of livestock animals. By redirecting the analytical tools for studying the spatial separation of humans to the segregation of animals, this paper contributes to understanding the geographical processes of ...

Hunting and Hauora: Pig Hunters and Poaka in Aotearoa New Zealand
New Zealand Geographer, Volume 82, Issue 2, August 2026.ABSTRACT Though invasive, wild pigs (poaka) were fundamental to the survival of both Māori and Pākehā during colonisation, and they remain an essential source of kai (sustenance) today. Utilising a Whanganui case study, 24 participants, semi‐structured interviews, and thematic analysis guided by Kaupapa Māori principles, describe hunters' interests in ...
