The Effect of Shear Wall Openings on the Response Reduction Factor
Civil Engineering Journal, 2022 This research attempts to investigate the effect of shear wall openings on the response reduction factor. Openings are commonly necessary because of other engineering disciplines’ requirements. When openings are modest in proportion to the size of the wall, their effects are frequently disregarded.

Shake table investigations on code non-compliant reinforced concrete frames
Alexandria Engineering Journal, 2020 Shake-table tests were performed on a code conforming and four non-compliant 1:3 reduced scale two-story RC frames. The models were subjected to 1994 Northridge earthquake acceleration time history, linearly scaled to multiple levels for studying the ...

Characteristics of Jerk Response Spectra for Elastic and Inelastic Systems
Shock and Vibration, 2015 Jerk is the time rate of acceleration and mainly represents the nonstationary component in high frequency band of the earthquake wave. The study on jerk and its response spectra can enhance the recognition of the nonstationary ground motion.

Overstrength and ductility factors of XBF structures with pinned and fixed supports
Studia Geotechnica et Mechanica, 2023 In today's time, most seismic design codes are based on a linear elastic force-based approach that includes the nonlinear response (ductility and overstrength) of the structure through a reduction factor (named behavior factor q in Eurocode 8 [EC8 ...

Sickle Cell Disease Is an Inherent Risk for Asthma in a Sibling Comparison Study
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Sickle cell disease (SCD) and asthma share a complex relationship. Although estimates vary, asthma prevalence in children with SCD is believed to be comparable to or higher than the general population. Determining whether SCD confers an increased risk for asthma remains challenging due to overlapping symptoms and the ...
