Seismic vulnerability assessment of the old city centre of Seixal, Portugal [PDF]
, 2012 The seismic vulnerability assessment of old traditional masonry building stocks, in a seismic risk mitigation perspective, is truly essential not only for buildings with recognized historical and patrimonial value, but also, in relation to regular ...

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Background Arsenic poisoning in horses is rarely reported in the literature. However, arsenic compounds can be present in rodenticides, pesticides, and herbicides, representing a potential source of accidental exposure for horses. Objective To describe the epidemiological, clinical, and laboratory findings from a herd of 31 horses exposed to ...

Dynamic one-sided out-of-plane behavior of unreinforced-masonry wall restrained by elasto-plastic tie-rods [PDF]
, 2019 Past earthquakes have shown the high vulnerability of existing masonry buildings, particularly to out-of-plane local collapse mechanisms. Such mechanisms can be prevented if façades are restrained by tie rods improving the connections to perpendiculars ...

Finite Element Modeling of a Thermoplastic Polyurethane Ball for Rolling Seismic Isolation
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 926-946, 10 April 2026.ABSTRACT The Elastomeric‐Ball Pendulum (EBP) system, which consists of an elastomeric ball rolling on a spherical concrete surface, has been proposed as an isolation system for lightweight structures. Experimental tests have shown that the mechanics of such a rolling ball are remarkably complicated because the vertical load changes the shape of the ...

Archaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 2, Page 173-183, April 2026.ABSTRACT This study examines plot divisions and units of measurement in regular medieval new towns in Central Europe, with a particular focus on historical Silesia. By applying the cosine quantogram method alongside GIS‐referenced cartographic sources and modular analysis, the research reconstructs the spatial organization of urban layouts. The results
