How the Butler Did It: Investigating Individual City Influence on National Policy
Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In most political systems, cities are not formally part of national policymaking. However, since they are often responsible for the implementation of national policies, they are likely to seek influence on these policies. Existing literature deals mostly with institutionalized policy cooperation and collective municipal organizations. As such,

In-plane and out-of plane experimental characterization of rc masonry infilled frames [PDF]
, 2015 Seismic investigations of typical south European masonry infilled frames were performed by testing two reduced scale specimens: one in the in-plane direction and another in the out-ofplane direction.

Bio‐mediated cementation of supratidal beach sediments associated with groundwater springs
Sedimentology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The formation of beachrock, sensu stricto, via carbonate precipitation in the intertidal zone is widespread throughout the tropics and subtropics. While cementation of supratidal beach sediments has also been noted in several locations, it has received much less attention.

Numerical analysis of reinforced concrete frame buildings with decoupled infill walls [PDF]
Građevinski Materijali i Konstrukcije, 2020 Reinforced concrete (RC) buildings with masonry infill walls are widely used in many countries all over the world. Although infills are considered as non-structural elements, they significantly change dynamic characteristics of RC frame structures during

Strengthening of brick infilled RC frames with different aspect ratios by means of CFRP overlays
Science and Engineering of Composite Materials, 2012 Post earthquake field investigations reveal that frames with inferior detailing are vulnerable to seismic actions. The presence of a large building stock in Turkey, which is vulnerable to an imminent earthquake, entails fast, relatively easy, and ...
