Business Strategies and Environmental Transparency in the Brazilian Mining Sector

Business Strategy &Development, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT In recent years, Brazil has experienced severe accidents caused by mining companies. This study aims to analyze the socio‐environmental strategies and environmental transparency practices adopted by the largest Brazilian mining companies following the Mariana and Brumadinho disasters, in light of Legitimacy Theory.

Seismic resilience design of steel bridge using pushover analysis

ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 2617-2622, September 2026.
Abstract Resilience –based design of steel bridge demands analytical approaches capable of capturing inelastic behavior and identifying retrofit needs under seismic loading. Seismic resilience refers to the ability of a structure to withstand, adapt to, and quickly recover from the effects of an earthquake.

Application of reversible friction dampers to beam‐to‐column joints with CFSTs

ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 1566-1571, September 2026.
Abstract Current building codes prescribe seismic design approaches that ensure safety by allowing structures to dissipate energy through extensive inelastic deformations. While effective in preventing collapse, this philosophy accepts damage, which results in high repair costs and long periods during which the building cannot be used.

Evaluation of the Frame Expansion Effect in Self‐Centring Beam‐to‐Column Subassemblies

ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 748-753, September 2026.
Abstract Conventional code‐based seismic design methods rely on dissipating seismic energy through structural damage. While this approach ensures life safety, it often results in significant post‐earthquake damage, leading to substantial direct and indirect losses that affect community resilience.

Repairable Steel Moment‐Resisting Frames for enhanced Seismic Resilience: conceptual and numerical investigation

ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 843-848, September 2026.
Abstract In recent years, the increasing demand for seismic‐resilient structures has progressively redefined the seismic design performance objectives. Structural design is no longer limited to ensuring life safety, but is increasingly oriented toward enabling the rapid restoration of both structural integrity and operational functionality, even after ...
