Karl Popper and the Mechanisms of Hydrogen Embrittlement

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Representation of the beginning of loss of ductility rather than embrittlement. Small concentrations of hydrogen in a diffusible form within iron are well‐established to harm the mechanical integrity of steels. There are theories that attempt to explain the pernicious role of hydrogen.

Response of linear-elastic structures to near-fault ground motions

open access: yes, 2012
Recorded earthquake ground motions in the near-fault regions have different and peculiar characteristics compared to that in the far-fault region. The main difference is a strong long period pulse in the velocity record due to forward directivity effects.

Effects of Near-Fault Pulse-like Ground Motions upon Seismic Performance of Large-Span Concrete-Filled Steel Tubular Arch Bridges

open access: yesBuildings
This study aims to explore the seismic performance of large-span concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) arch bridges under near-fault pulse-like ground motions (PLGMs).

Microstructure Evolution of a VMnFeCoNi High‐Entropy Alloy After Synthesis, Swaging, and Annealing

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The synthesis and processing (rotary swaging and annealing) of the novel VMnFeCoNi alloy is investigated, alongside the estimation of the grain size effect on hardness. Analysis of a wide grain size range of recrystallized microstructures (12–210 µm) reveals a low annealing twin density.

Near-fault ground motions: Demand and structural capacity requirements

open access: yes, 2001
The improvement of structural capacity against large displacement demand of near-fault ground motions has been the subject of research for the last decade.

Seismic Design of Bridges against Near-Fault Ground Motions Using Combined Seismic Isolation and Restraining Systems of LRBs and CDRs

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2019
This paper focuses on the seismic isolation design of near-fault bridges under the seismic excitations of near-fault ground motions in high-intensity earthquake zones and proposes a combined control system using lead rubber bearings (LRBs) and cable ...

Hydrogen‐Assisted Fracture of Iron‐Based Fe–Ni–Al Alloys

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Principal relations and fracture mechanisms of single‐phase and precipitate‐strengthened Fe–Ni–Al alloys subjected to prior electrochemical hydrogen charging are identified. The mechanisms of hydrogen effect on strength and microhardness are discussed, including hydrogen‐induced increase in microhardness and the role of hydrogen in fracture behavior ...

High‐Temperature Nanoindentation of Metals: Assessing Thermal Drift, Frame Compliance, and Chemical Composition Effects on the Reported Mechanical Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Do not let thermal drift and instrument artifacts deceive high‐temperature nanoindentation results. We compare classical Oliver–Pharr and automatic image recognition analyses across steels and a Ni alloy to quantify these effects. Accounting for artifacts reveals systematic softening with temperature, while Cr and Ni additions boost resistance ...

Near-Fault Ground Motions Causing the Great Hanshin Earthquake Disaster

open access: yes, 1996
The ground motions in the near-fault region in Kobe from the Hyogo-ken Nanbu earthquake were characterized by two large long-period (1 to 2 seconds) pulses due to forward rupture directivity.

Near-fault and far-fault ground motion effects on cable-supported bridges

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper a cable-stayed bridge and a suspension bridge with closer main span lengths are considered and the bridge responses obtained from the near-fault and far-fault ground motion cases are compared for both bridge models to underline the relative
