Regional Adjustments to NGA‐West2 Ground‐Motion Models for Turkey

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a ground‐motion model updating (GMMU) framework to adjust NGA‐West2 models for predicting a set of intensity measures in Turkey, including peak ground acceleration (PGA), peak ground velocity (PGV), and pseudo‐spectral acceleration (PSA) at periods ranging from 0.01 to 10 s. The GMMU framework integrates bias identification

Cyclic Behavior of Seismically Non-Conforming Interior Reinforced Concrete Beam–Column Joints

open access: yesBuildings
The cyclic behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) beam–column joints (BCJs) is still one of the critical issues in structural engineering. In this context, for the purpose of gaining a more in-depth insight about the sophisticated behavior of BCJs under ...

Behavior of Long‐Slotted Perforated Steel Plate Fuses in Timber Brace End Connections

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Steel perforated plate fuses have emerged as a promising solution for mass timber seismic force‐resisting systems, offering tunable energy dissipation mechanisms, such as flexural and shear yielding, through geometric adjustments. This study examines the cyclic performance of perforated steel plate fuses employed in timber braced frames, with ...

Experimental Study on the Seismic Behavior of CFST Self-Centering Rocking Bridge Piers

open access: yesBuildings
Compared to conventional reinforced concrete (RC) piers, self-centering rocking piers exhibit better seismic resilience and sustain minor damage. However, their construction typically relies on prefabrication.

Research on Precise Identification of Rock Strength Based on Bolt Drilling Parameters

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Drilling detection test platform. ABSTRACT During roadway excavation, the presence of weak interlayers and fractured rock masses significantly affects roof stability. To achieve timely and effective roadway support, it is crucial to identify and predict different rock types based on drilling signals from roof bolters.
