Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Post‐earthquake fires pose a significant threat to urban environments, with potentially catastrophic consequences for buildings and infrastructure. To enhance understanding and mitigate these risks, this study conducts a comparative analysis of post‐earthquake fire (PEF) in two‐dimensional (2D) and three‐dimensional (3D) reinforced concrete ...

Seismic vulnerability of RC buildings in Polog valley [PDF]
Micro, Macro & Mezzo Geoinformation, 2015 A procedure for evaluation of seismic vulnerability of RC buildings has been proposed. Applying the nonlinear static “pushover” analysis, the parameters of nonlinear behavior of the selected set of reinforced concrete buildings have been defined.

Care Praxis–Driven STEM Design for Sustainable and Just Communities in Middle School
Journal of Research in Science Teaching, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Despite the growing interest in incorporating care ethics into STEM education, these topics are rarely integrated into K‐12 standards and pedagogical practice. We explore how care praxis, a political and ethical approach to STEM education, supports students' sense‐making in addressing real‐world problems throughout STEM design, merging social,

Journal of Vinyl and Additive Technology, Volume 31, Issue 2, Page 441-452, March 2025.Three poly(caprolactone) (PCL)‐based additives of differing molecular weights were used as a secondary plasticizer to prevent gas checks in PVC films produced through calendering. Results showed that chemical and physicochemical properties influence the prevention or reduction of gas checks, unlike rheological properties including complex viscosity and

Impacts to the mountain‐valley circulation from the 2023 annular solar eclipse
Weather, EarlyView.In October 2023, as part of the Nationwide Eclipse Ballooning Project (NEBP), faculty and students from the University of North Dakota (UND) in coordination with Pueblo Community College Southwest collected weather observations during an annular solar eclipse colloquially known as a ‘ring of fire’ eclipse.

Weather, EarlyView.The English language is a gargantuan, gluttonous beast. It has become extraordinary in its powers of assimilation – such that we rarely consider the origins of the words we use. In this paper, we will shed light on these origins, including the Pontic–Caspian steppe, the British Empire and, of course, a TV show.

THE URBANOLOGISTS COME TO TOWN: Professional Life and Work in the Urban Solutions Industry
International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.Abstract This article charts the upsurge of an eclectic global community of professionals new to the field of urban policy and governance, animated by playful and celebratory attitudes towards cities and urbanization: the urbanologists. It contributes to debates in critical urban theory and critical ethnographies of technology to problematize ...
