Nonlinear seismic response of 3D canyon in deep soft soils

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2017
A model is proposed for nonlinear seismic response of 3D canyon in deep soft soils. In the model, the viscous-elastic boundary and the equivalent node force input method are combined for wave motion input, and the equivalent linear method is introduced ...

Effects of Ambient Moisture and Large‐Strain Dynamic Preloading on the Dynamic Properties of the EAC‐1A Regolith Simulant

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The EAC‐1A lunar mare simulant, a silty sand, was selected by the European Astronaut Center (EAC) for use in the LUNA analogue facility's lunar simulation testbed. Its stress‐ and strain‐dependent shear modulus and damping ratio were determined via resonant column testing on specimens prepared either from ambient moisture material or oven ...

Designing Elastic Softening Under Compression via Dipole–Dipole Interactions: The Case of Na2TiSiO5

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Pressure usually stiffens solids, yet Na2TiSiO5 exhibits anomalous elastic softening under compression. Unlike conventional mechanisms driven by geometric rearrangements or electronic spin‐state transitions, the softening originates from enhanced dipole coupling along head‐to‐tail TiO5 chains.

Probability-Based Residual Deformation Modeling for SDOF System Subjected to Mainshock–Aftershock Seismic Excitation

open access: yesBuildings
To evaluate the seismic performance of single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) systems under mainshock–aftershock (MS–AS) seismic excitation, nonlinear time-history analyses were conducted on SDOF systems with various parameter combinations, using 50 sets of ...

ASSESSMENT OF SEISMIC INPUT ENERGY BY MEANS OF NEW DEFINITION AND THE APPLICATION TO EARTHQUAKE RESISTANT DESIGN

open access: yesArchitecture and Engineering, 2016
A methodology for assessing the seismic input energy into structure (building) from earthquake (or seismic) excitation is proposed. The procedure is based on the energy balance of the structure and employs the earthquake intensity characteristic known as

TRM‐to‐concrete interface bond without anchors: Combined experimental, analytical, and numerical modeling approach

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Textile reinforced mortar (TRM) systems have emerged as an effective alternative to conventional FRP strengthening solutions due to their compatibility with concrete substrates and favorable performance under adverse environmental conditions.

Seismic evaluation of the southbound Stellenberg Interchange Bridge, B5593, in South Africa

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study presents a nonlinear finite element assessment of the seismic vulnerability of Bridge B5593, located in the south‐western region of South Africa. Previous evaluations identified a high likelihood of column failure; however, these were based on linear material models incapable of capturing damage evolution.

Vehicle–Bridge Interaction Dynamic Analysis of Continuous Rigid Frame Composite Box Girder Bridge with Corrugated Steel Webs under Seismic Excitation

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering
To study the vehicle–bridge interaction (VBI) of highway bridges under seismic excitation, a vehicle–bridge couple analysis method based on Ansys is proposed. The 1/2 vehicle model and space beam element model were established to analyze the VBI response
