Macro-Modelling of IP-OoP Interaction in Unreinforced Solid Masonry Infills under Earthquake-Induced Actions: A Review

Buildings, 2023
Unreinforced masonry-infilled reinforced concrete frames are a prevalent taxonomy class not only in the Mediterranean region but also in Europe and worldwide, where buildings of this type abound or are ubiquitous.

Modeling of Vertical Breakwater Wall under Bilateral Seawater Load [PDF]

Journal of Hydraulic Structures, 2019
Floating breakwaters are widely used due to their various advantages over stationary breakwaters. Lots of researches have been done on hydrodynamics and the type of bracing of these kinds of structures in recent years.

Numerical simulation of dynamic shear characteristics of geomembrane interface and its application

Shuili Shuiyun Gongcheng Xuebao, 2021
A series of cyclic shear tests were carried out on geomembrane-gravel interface using a modified large-scale shear device for soils. The hysteretic curves, backbone curves and damping ratio variation curves under different vertical pressures were ...

Spatial Variations of Late Quaternary Slip Rates along the Ganzi–Xianshuihe Fault Zone in the Eastern Tibet

Remote Sensing
The Ganzi–Xianshuihe Fault Zone is a large-scale sinistral strike-slip fault zone on the eastern Tibet. As the boundary fault zone of the Bayankala Block and the Chuandian Block, it controls the clockwise rotation of the southeastern Tibet.

Additively manufactured steel reinforcement for small scale reinforced concrete modeling: Tensile and bond behavior

Materials & Design
Small scale (∼1:30–1:40) Reinforced Concrete is useful for centrifuge testing. However, manufacturing the reinforcing cages by hand at this scale is practically difficult.

Analysis of Seismic Responses and Vibration Serviceability in a High-Rise Timber–Concrete Hybrid Building

Buildings
Timber–concrete hybrid structures are commonly employed in multi-story timber buildings; however, further research is necessary to fully understand the seismic performance of these structures as well as the dynamic properties of the floor.

Fundamentals of Thermal Transport and Energy Conversion in Ultra‐High Temperature Ceramics: From Microscale Mechanisms to Macroscopic Properties

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This review critically examines thermal transport and radiative properties of ultra‐high temperature ceramics for hypersonic flight, advanced nuclear systems, and next‐generation energy conversion devices. It explores phonon–photon–electron interactions, microstructural engineering, thermoelectric conversion, and machine learning‐accelerated multiscale

Atomic Scale Control of Thermal Conductivity in LaMnO3/SrMnO3 Superlattices

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Interface‐dominated cross‐plane thermal transport in [(LaMnO3)m/(SrMnO3)n]10 superlattices can be controlled by the octahedral rotation/tilt angle φOOR of the MnO6 octahedra, which as well is controlled by the “m/n” ratio. ABSTRACT We report atomic scale structure and phonon thermal transport in (LaMnO3)m/(SrMnO3)n/SrTiO3(100) superlattices (LMO/SMO ...
