The Scholar Imprisoned: Young‐Bok Shin's Decolonial Thought Against (Sub) Imperialisms in East Asia

open access: yesSociological Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article reads Young‐Bok Shin (1941–2016) as a decolonial thinker who theorized transformative worldmaking from the standpoint of the oppressed, rooted in the historical experiences of East Asia. Against the (sub)imperial “logic of sameness” that structures colonial modernity in his social world, Shin advances gongbu (studying) as a ...

A variant of modal pushover analyses (VMPA) based on a non-incremental procedure

open access: yes, 2015
A variant of modal pushover analysis (VMPA) is presented to evaluate the seismic performance of the structures. The suggested procedure is based on an iterative process in which secant stiffnesses are used both at the element level and in the modal ...

Quantification of Direct Benefits of Functional Recovery‐Based Design for Seismic Resilience

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
Lessons from recent major earthquakes have shown that current life‐safety‐centered seismic design practice falls short in ensuring a desirable post‐hazard recovery. Extensive economic losses, high demolition rates, and long recovery have signified a gap between design targets and society's expectations of seismic performance of code‐compliant buildings.
