Correlation of the Near-Fault Pulse-like Ground Motion Characteristics with the Vulnerability of Buildings

Buildings
Determining the impact of pulse-type earthquake characteristics on the vulnerability of base-isolated buildings under non-pounding conditions has yielded conflicting results in previous studies. Moreover, this issue has received less attention for pounding conditions, especially floor-to-floor pounding.

Enhanced Ferroelectric Phase Formation via Local Structure Modification in the Pre‐Crystalline State of Hafnium Zirconium Oxide Thin Films

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Hafnium zirconium oxide thin films are grown using plasma‐enhanced atomic layer deposition with the addition of an atomic layer annealing (ALA) step. ALA leads to a change in the short‐range structure of the deposit and encourages formation of the ferroelectric Pca21 phase. The result is wake‐up‐free performance with films exposed to ALA.

An Investigation into Near-Fault Ground Motion Characteristics and Their Influence on the Seismic Response of Typical Girder Bridges

Buildings
Near-fault ground motions significantly threaten bridges due to their distinct features, which are often inadequately considered in current seismic codes based mainly on far-field records.

Seismic Response Analysis of a Curved Bridge under Near-Fault and Far-Field Ground Motions

, 2022
To study the influence of near-fault and far-field (FF) ground motions on a curved girder bridge, a 1:10 scale curved bridge shaking table test model was constructed. Three types of ground motions, namely, near-fault pulse (NP), near-fault non-pulse (NN),

Control Performances of Friction Pendulum and Sloped Rolling-Type Bearings Designed with Single Parameters

Applied Sciences, 2020
Owing to quite different features and hysteretic behavior of friction pendulum bearings (FPBs) and sloped rolling-type bearings (SRBs), their control performances might not be readily compared without some rules.

Study on the disaster mechanism of near-fault pulse-like ground motion of M8.0 Wenchuan earthquake

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2020
Abstract With the improvement of observation quality, more and more near-fault strong earthquake records have been obtained. Through the analysis of near-fault strong ground motion records of Wenchuan earthquake, the collection and field investigation of seismogenic structural data, as well as the collection and field investigation of ...

Covalent Functionalization of 2D Semiconductors: A Roadmap to Advanced Electronic Devices

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This Review presents recent advances in the covalent functionalization strategies for two‐dimensional semiconductors and their implementation in modern technologies. Layered materials are modified through diverse molecular chemistries (e.g., thiols, diazonium salts, alkyl halides, and electron‐deficient species) to tailor their surface properties ...
