Carbon Dots: An Emerging Frontier for Green and Sustainable Civil Engineering Materials

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Traditional civil engineering materials (CE materials) are usually involved with high‐energy consumption during manufacturing, significant maintenance costs, and substantial environmental impacts throughout their life cycles. The progress of nanotechnology is catalyzing a green and sustainable transformation within the field.

Seismic Assessment Procedure for Exterior Reinforced Concrete Beam–Column Joints With Slab and Transverse Beams

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article presents a capacity‐based assessment procedure for beam–column (b–c) joints of reinforced concrete frames with floor slabs and transverse beams. The procedure extends a previously proposed assessment methodology for determining the hierarchy of strengths and the sequence of events in symmetrically reinforced planar b–c joints.

Nonlinear Response‐History Analyses of Masonry and Mixed Structures With HybriDFEM

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The hybrid discrete‐finite element (HybriDFEM) method, previously developed to perform static and modal analysis in discrete and coupled discrete‐finite element models, is extended to nonlinear response‐history analyses. The equations of motion for the HybriDFEM model are solved through various numerical time‐integration schemes, both explicit

Evaluation of Modeling Assumptions for Predicting Structural Damage and Train Derailment Under Earthquake Loading

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rapid development of new railway networks and the aging of existing infrastructure in seismic‐prone regions continue to motivate the need for efficient methods to simulate the dynamic behavior of coupled train track structure systems. While detailed train–structure interaction (TSI) models can capture complex mechanisms, they are often too

Finite Element Modelling of Rocking and Hybrid Precast Walls under Seismic Loading

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In recent years, self‐centring systems have received considerable research interest in the seismic design of precast concrete structures for their ability to limit damage and satisfy resilience requirements. Rocking and hybrid structural walls, characterised by the formation of a single gap at the wall–foundation interface, mitigate damage by ...

Analysis of the Algorithm Monitoring the Geometric Parameters of the Powered Support Based on Station Tests

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The powered roof supports in the longwall complex are placed and interconnected next to one another, typically about 125–250 units in a longwall face. It is an essential component in the longwall complex, which also includes a shearer (or plow) and an armored face conveyor.

Characteristics of Deformation and Damage of Multi‐Thin Composite Oil Shale Top Plate Under the Influence of Different Factors

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
In this study, the key control mechanism of surrounding rock stability is revealed by theoretical analysis and UDEC‐Trigon numerical simulation method, aiming at the problem that oil shale roof is prone to separation and slip deformation under complex stress.
