Investigation on the effect of the shape, size and location of openings on the seismic behavior of steel plate shear walls connected to frame beams only [PDF]
Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2020 In the conventional steel plate shear walls (SPSWs), the steel plate is connected to all boundary elements, but in the steel plate shear walls connected to frame beams only (SSW-BOs) the plate is not connected to columns. The separation of the plate from

Large optical field enhancement for nanotips with large opening angles [PDF]
, 2015 We theoretically investigate the dependence of the enhancement of optical near-fields at nanometric tips on the shape, size, and material of the tip. We confirm a strong dependence of the field enhancement factor on the radius of curvature.
