Optimal structural design method for reinforced concrete column in buildings with high floor heights using a genetic algorithm

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Globally, there is a growing trend toward taller, larger, and more structurally diverse buildings that require expansive interior spaces. Rapid technological advancements have surged the demand for data centers, while the expansion of e‐commerce has increased logistics volumes, driving the need for large‐scale warehouses.

A New Paradigm for Understanding the Rheology and Processability of Poly(p‐Phenylene Terephthalamide) Liquid‐Crystalline Solutions

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 34, September 10, 2026.
Kevlar is traditionally modeled as a rigid‐rod polymer, yet rheological behavior deviates from this assumption. The review introduces a novel “twist‐tie” entanglement theory for aramid polymer chains in the nematic liquid crystal state, providing a molecular explanation for deviations from rigid‐rod models. Understanding twist‐tie entanglement dynamics

Applied Element Modelling of Out‐Of‐Plane Instability in Boundary Elements of Thin RC Walls

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2800-2817, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent earthquakes in Chile (2010) and New Zealand (2011) caused extensive damage to buildings featuring reinforced concrete (RC) structural walls, with observed failure modes including out‐of‐plane instability of slender walls. This buckling‐type response under combined in‐plane and out‐of‐plane loading has also been documented in ...

Strength of Flanged and Plain Cruciform Members

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2018
There are two different types of cruciform members used in practice. Flanged cruciform sections are typically fabricated from two hot-rolled WT sections welded to the web of a standard hot-rolled I section, whereas plain cruciform sections are typically ...

Shaking Table Tests and Numerical Analysis of Rocking Vault‐Shaped Segmental Piers Equipped With an Annular Double Sliding System

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 10, Page 2233-2254, August 2026.
ABSTRACT To enhance the structural robustness of bridges, a rocking arch‐shaped segmental pier with a double sliding system was previously proposed as a low‐cost solution to protect bridges in developing countries. The rocking behavior is triggered by halting the sliding motion, which increases the horizontal load‐bearing capacity and limits ...
