Shaking Table Tests and Numerical Analysis of Rocking Vault‐Shaped Segmental Piers Equipped With an Annular Double Sliding System

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To enhance the structural robustness of bridges, a rocking arch‐shaped segmental pier with a double sliding system was previously proposed as a low‐cost solution to protect bridges in developing countries. The rocking behavior is triggered by halting the sliding motion, which increases the horizontal load‐bearing capacity and limits ...

Blade Count and Rotational Speed Sensitivity of Vertical‐Axis Turbines Under Guided Vehicle‐Generated Transient Wakes

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Passing vehicles generate short‐duration wakes that can be redirected toward a vertical‐axis turbine. The interaction between wake structure, blade count, and rotational speed governs transient torque production. Low‐solidity configurations combined with tuned rotational speed enhance energy extraction under vehicle‐induced gusts.

A Coarse Geometric Approach to Graph Layout Problems

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We define a range of new coarse geometric invariants based on various graph–theoretic measures of complexity for finite graphs, including treewidth, pathwidth, cutwidth and bandwidth. We prove that, for bounded degree graphs, these invariants can be used to define functions which satisfy a strong monotonicity property, namely, they are ...

Tropical Cyclone Rainfall Spatial Asymmetries in the Lesser Antilles

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Rainfall is not proportional to the Saffir‐Simpson wind‐based categories. Lower category tropical cyclones (TS, H1, H2 and H3) can generate more intense rainfall than H4 and H5. Rainfall is asymmetric; as a tropical cyclone intensifies or weakens, the location of peak rainfall shifts.
