An overview of the development of the hybrid method for seismic vulnerability assessment of buildings [PDF]
, 2016 The paper presents in a chronological and systematic way the development of the hybrid method for seismic vulnerability assessment of structures, which combines the use of empirical databases of earthquake damage with the results of nonlinear analysis of

Innovative development and structural behavior of hollow columns using inflatable molds
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract This study introduces a novel approach for constructing hollow columns using precast (PC) methods enhanced by inflatable air tubes as internal molds. The proposed method addresses practical challenges in conventional hollow column construction, such as limited constructability, high production cost, and interference between internal molds and ...

Application of Multi‐Method Dating for Understanding the Gravettian North of Moravia, Central Europe
Archaeometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article presents the results of integrating three methods to assess the age of the Upper Palaeolithic site of Pietraszyn 11 (SW Poland), close to the Moravian Gate. Sediment chronology determined using optically stimulated luminescence produced promising, yet ambiguous results (51.0 ± 3.7 to 20.3 ± 0.7 ka).

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

Boreas, EarlyView.Map of Lower sediment (LS) thickness is a surrogate for the distribution of Thorncliffe Formation (TF) and ~75% of TF thickness from the slope of Niagara Escarpment east to Brighton. Inset images show the LS sequence at the Don Valleys brickyards (DVBY) and undeformed TF sand and gravel (~15 m) below Newmarket Till (NT) at sites L and Co.

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 ...
