Energy‐Based Characterisation of Earthquake Damage in Masonry Infills Through Combined In‐Plane and Out‐of‐Plane Experimental Tests

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The seismic capacity of structural systems/members is usually defined in terms of deformation thresholds. Although this is effective in many circumstances, disregarding cumulative quantities such as hysteretic energy may be ineffective when low‐cycle fatigue is relevant (e.g., long‐duration ground motions, very soft soils, ground‐motion ...

Influence of Structural and Environmental Parameters on Solar Air Collector Performance

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Increasing air gap depth and mass flow rate significantly enhances the thermal performance of solar air collectors, with optimal performance achieved at an 8.5 cm air gap and 0.01318 kg/s mass flow rate. Air gap depth is identified as the dominant factor influencing system efficiency.

Experimental Thermal Performance Investigation of Nontracking Multiple Parabolic Trough Collector With a Single Absorber

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
With a mass flow rate of 0.3 kg/min, a direct solar radiation of 770.25 W/m2, and a global solar radiation of 915.25 W/m2, the maximum outlet water temperature was 63.3°C, the maximum instantaneous efficiency was 51.78%, and the average heat gain was found between 69.81 and 206.88 W, depending on mass flow rate and direct solar radiation.

Multicontinuum Homogenization for Poroelasticity Model

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.
This work derives a generalized multicontinuum poroelasticity model using the multicontinuum homogenization method to enable accurate coarse‐grid simulations of coupled flow–mechanics processes in highly heterogeneous porous media. Coupled constraint cell problems are formulated, and the corresponding multicontinuum equations are rigorously derived ...

Algebraic Capsets

open access: yesJournal of Combinatorial Designs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Capsets are subsets of F 3 n ${{\mathbb{F}}}_{3}^{n}$ with no three points on a line, and a capset is complete if it is not a subset of a larger capset. We study some new constructions of capsets via algebraic equations over extensions of F 3 ${{\mathbb{F}}}_{3}$.
