A parametric study in reinforced concrete frames with different infill wall materials
Understanding the behavior of structures during earthquakes is crucial for ensuring safety. Despite their significant impact on buildings, infill walls are often overlooked in seismic assessments, contributing to the complexity of a structure. Because of

The wall–frame interaction effect in CLT-steel hybrid systems
Behaviour and capacity of cross-laminated timber (CLT) infills built inside steel frames have been given increasing research attention in recent years. It is widely accepted that when the CLT wall panel is built in tight contact with the bounding steel ...

Would RC wide-beam buildings in Spain have survived Lorca earthquake (11-05-2011)? [PDF]
Lorca earthquake (11-05-2011) is most destructive event recorded in Spain, causing nine fatalities and other severe consequences. Its important intensity was rather unexpected, and serious concern arose regarding risk of building stock in Spain.

Viscoelasticity‐driven instabilities are harnessed to create tunable, periodic textures in 3D‐printed liquid crystalline polymers. This study illustrates how processing parameters control these spontaneous meso‐scale patterns. These unique structural architectures unlock new possibilities for functional devices, ranging from photonic components to ...
