Implications of Lateral Coupler Forces for Rail Vehicle Curving Resistance
Journal of Computational and Nonlinear Dynamics, 2021Abstract Curving resistance is an important topic that requires a lot more research. This paper studied the implications of lateral coupler forces for curving resistance. More than 1800 simulations were conducted using a three-piece bogie wagon model developed in the simpack software package.

Numerical method for evaluating the lateral resistance of sleepers in ballasted tracks
Soils and Foundations, 2014 Ballasted track sleepers have the important function of providing sufficient lateral resistance to prevent the lateral movement of rails. If the lateral force induced by the thermal expansion of steel rails overcomes the lateral resistance of sleepers ...

Use of Garage Doors to Resist Lateral Forces
Improving the Seismic Performance of Existing Buildings and Other Structures, 2009Existing wood-panel, sectional, overhead garage doors have been shown in preliminary proof-of-concept testing to be effective as load transfer and energy dissipation elements in soft-story, wood-framed buildings. Such doors performed surprisingly well and, with further development of uplift restraint devices and additional testing, may be recommended ...

High-rise modular buildings with innovative precast concrete shear walls as a lateral force resisting system [PDF]
Structures, 2020 Modular construction has been widely adopted for low-to-medium-rise buildings, but fairly limited for high-rises. A particular knowledge gap resides with the lateral force resistance of modular high-rises. Most such buildings adopt cast-in-situ cores for

Architectural Precast Panel Systems Used For Lateral Force Resistance
Structures Congress 2009, 2009Precast exterior wall panels in multi-story buildings are typically supported by the building structure and serve the purpose of building enclosure and aesthetics. Precast, however, is a strong and stiff material and can also provide structural strength and stiffness to a building.

Experimental Study and Seismic Design of Swing Story-Lateral Force Resisting Structural System
International Journal of Structural Stability and Dynamics, 2023A seismic vibration control system, consisting of a swing story substructure, a lateral force resisting substructure and connecting dampers, is recently proposed. The analytical model and optimization method based on the stability maximization and H2 criteria have been established.
