The effect of masonry infill walls on the reinforced concrete frames behavior under lateral load [PDF]
The reinforced concrete structures with masonry infill walls are widely used to construct buildings in Algeria, as in many parts of the world. According to earthquake analysis, this type of construction can undergo serious damage under seismic load.

ABSTRACT In the 17th‐century Louvre expansion project, many architects used free‐standing columns, domes and large pediments for its east elevation. These elements helped give the elevation, over 150 m wide, the monumentality the court wanted, while also providing the appropriate articulation. Bernini was probably the only architect who did not use any

Influence of longitudinal reinforcement on development of normal cracks
Using a model of normal crack propagation in reinforced concrete members, an analytical expression is presented for the stress intensity factor defining the intensity of stress in area at the crack tip. This factor is in linear relationship to the stress

Numerical Analysis of the Tetrapylon Roman's Triumphal Arch of Tebessa: A Case Study. [PDF]
The Tetrapylon Roman Triumphal Arch or commonly called 'Caracalla Gate', located in Tebessa City (Northern Algeria), is considered as one of the most distinctive type of arches associated with the ancient Roman's architecture. This historical monument,

This work assesses, through a quantitative micro energy dispersive X‐ray fluorescence imaging, the effective use of micro‐structured cellulose foams as a sustainable alternative to traditional poultices for desalinating fresco paintings. Foams were between 6 and 10 times more efficient, achieving rapid and in‐depth salt removal with reusability and ...

Flowering is an important trait for the resilience of seagrasses. Using a native seagrass, Zostera marina, we applied a common garden approach to experimentally test how flowering and its underlying molecular mechanisms responded to elevated water temperature (+3°C).
