English teachers' journeys since the 2020 Iteration of Black Lives Matter
Abstract The 2020 resurgence of Black Lives Matter (BLM) mobilised students in England to demand greater representation of racially minoritised voices in English curriculums—a call highlighted by stark inequity: just 1.5% of GCSE texts studied are by racially minoritised authors, despite racially minoritised students comprising 38.0% of the student ...

Ensemble‐based soil liquefaction assessment: Leveraging CPT data for enhanced predictions
Abstract This study focuses on predicting soil liquefaction, a critical phenomenon that can significantly impact the stability and safety of structures during seismic events. Accurate liquefaction assessment is vital for geotechnical engineering, as it informs the design and mitigation strategies needed to safeguard infrastructure and reduce the risk ...

Abstract Blockchain technology is a digital decentralized data ledger recording transactions in an encrypted format. Its implementation can potentially hold significant advantages for the built environment, particularly in manufacturing and building product usage aligned with Building Information Modeling (BIM). This paradigm shift toward decentralized

Investigation of ground motion vertical and horizontal component effects on the IDA curves for the regular and irregular steel moment frames [PDF]
The effect of seismic vertical components on the seismic behavior of structural systems can be considerable. The vertical component of ground motion records can cause the brittle collapse of columns resulting in global collapse of structures. This effect

This study highlights that with the static and time‐dependent evolution of slip versus dilation tendency parameter space, structurally controlled deep geothermal systems can be selected within areas of higher permeability and lower seismic hazard. Abstract Faults play a vital role in the Earth's hydraulic system by facilitating fluid flow when dilating

Analytical Pushover Curves for X-Concentric Braced Steel Frames
In this work, analytical pushover curves for concentric braced steel frames with active tension diagonal bracings (X-CBF) are proposed. A pushover “spindle”, characterized by two trilinear analytical capacity curves defined for an X-CBF system subjected ...
