Rocking Analysis of Towers Subjected to Horizontal Forces

open access: yesBuildings, 2023
In seismic-prone areas, ecclesiastical masonry complexes have shown very high vulnerability, as detected after the last Italian earthquakes, such as those that occurred in L’Aquila (2009), Emilia-Romagna (2012), Central Italy (2016), and Ischia (2017 ...

Shaking table tests on seismic response of rocking frame structure considering foundation uplift

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2021
The separation of structural foundation and foundation soil, namely the foundation uplift, is inevitable in strong earthquakes, so the concept of rocking isolation is gradually proposed.

The rock, the whole rock, and everything about the rock

open access: yesIn Situ Archaeologica, 2023
The traditional documentation methods of rock art only rarely record the context and relations of the imagery in full. The new 3D techniques, however, offer interesting possibilities for documenting and analyzing petroglyphs, and are well-equipped to suit such tasks.

Readaptation Treatment of Mal de Debarquement Syndrome With a Virtual Reality App: A Pilot Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2020
Mal de Debarquement syndrome (MdDS) is composed of constant phantom sensations of motion, which are frequently accompanied by increased sensitivity to light, inability to walk on a patterned floor, the sensation of ear fullness, head pressure, anxiety ...

Explicit Overturning Limit of Rigid Block Using Triple and Pseudo-Triple Impulses Under Critical Near-Fault Ground Motions

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment, 2021
An explicit limit for the overturning of a rigid block is derived on the input level of the triple impulse and the pseudo-triple impulse as a modified version of the triple impulse that are a substitute of a near-fault forward-directivity ground motion ...

Rocking and Kinematic Approaches for Rigid Block Analysis of Masonry Walls: State of the Art and Recent Developments

open access: yesBuildings, 2017
The assessment of the rocking and overturning response of rigid blocks to earthquakes is a complex task, due to its high sensitivity to the input motion, variations in geometry and dissipation issues.

Sleep Induction by Mechanosensory Stimulation in Drosophila

open access: yesCell Reports, 2020
Summary: People tend to fall asleep when gently rocked or vibrated. Experimental studies have shown that rocking promotes sleep in humans and mice. However, the mechanisms underlying the phenomenon are not well understood.

Treatment of Gravitational Pulling Sensation in Patients With Mal de Debarquement Syndrome (MdDS): A Model-Based Approach

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2022
Perception of the spatial vertical is important for maintaining and stabilizing vertical posture during body motion. The velocity storage pathway of vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR), which integrates vestibular, optokinetic, and proprioception in the ...
