Field responsive mechanical metamaterials. [PDF]

, 2018
Typically, mechanical metamaterial properties are programmed and set when the architecture is designed and constructed, and do not change in response to shifting environmental conditions or application requirements.

Validation of a simplified micromodel for analysis of infilled RC frames exposed to cyclic lateral loads [PDF]

, 2016
An RC frame structure with masonry infill walls (‘‘framed-masonry’’) exposed to lateral loads acts as a composite structure. Numerical simulation of framed-masonry is difficult and generally unreliable due to many difficulties and uncertainties in its ...
