This study quantifies the influence of multidimensional effects on site response in the Wellington region of New Zealand by comparing results from different simulation approaches. Response‐spectral amplification functions from 1D and 2D site response analyses are compared to quantify the magnitude and spatial distribution of multidimensional effects ...

Efficient Tensor Completion Algorithms for Highly Oscillatory Operators
ABSTRACT We address the problem of recovering highly oscillatory operators, represented as n×n$$ n\times n $$ matrices with a fixed set of observed entries. Given that these matrices can be well compressed by butterfly matrix decomposition of L=𝒪(logn) levels requiring only O(nlogn)$$ O\left(n\log n\right) $$ degrees of freedom, we propose a novel ...

Abstract Reliable calculations of coseismic sea‐surface deformation and stress drop are essential for understanding megathrust earthquake rupture and tsunami behavior. However, the impacts of realistic three‐dimensional (3D) structure, such as seafloor topography and structural heterogeneity, on stress‐change calculations and tsunami excitation during ...

Decoding the Hot‐Mitochondrion Paradox
A distributed mechanism of mitochondrial heat generation is proposed in which all ion‐translocating proteins embedded within the inner mitochondrial membrane contribute to localized heat generation. All ion‐translocating proteins embedded within the inner mitochondrial membrane (IMM)—with ATP synthase shown here as an example—are proposed to function ...

Carbon Dots: An Emerging Frontier for Green and Sustainable Civil Engineering Materials
Traditional civil engineering materials (CE materials) are usually involved with high‐energy consumption during manufacturing, significant maintenance costs, and substantial environmental impacts throughout their life cycles. The progress of nanotechnology is catalyzing a green and sustainable transformation within the field.

ABSTRACT This article presents a capacity‐based assessment procedure for beam–column (b–c) joints of reinforced concrete frames with floor slabs and transverse beams. The procedure extends a previously proposed assessment methodology for determining the hierarchy of strengths and the sequence of events in symmetrically reinforced planar b–c joints.

Nonlinear Response‐History Analyses of Masonry and Mixed Structures With HybriDFEM
ABSTRACT The hybrid discrete‐finite element (HybriDFEM) method, previously developed to perform static and modal analysis in discrete and coupled discrete‐finite element models, is extended to nonlinear response‐history analyses. The equations of motion for the HybriDFEM model are solved through various numerical time‐integration schemes, both explicit

As critical infrastructures, long, large-diameter shield tunnels require a reliable long-term seismic safety assessment. This study investigates the coupled effects of spatially non-uniform ground motions and bolt corrosion on the seismic response of ...
