Seismic fragility of typical bridges in moderate seismic zone
A set of fragility curves for the bridges commonly found in the Central and Southeastern United States (CSUS) is presented. For this purpose, the typical bridges in the region are determined from a bridge inventory, and detail analytical models of the bridges are developed based on experimental and analytical studies. The developed fragility curves can

Redescription of the Triassic cynodont Cistecynodon parvus and reassessment of its phylogeny
Abstract Cynodontia is an important subclade of Therapsida that first occurred in the late Permian. It includes extinct subclades which are the non‐mammaliaform cynodonts and Mammaliaformes, with the latter ultimately giving rise to crown mammals. The systematics of non‐mammaliaform cynodonts has been extensively studied and is relatively well‐resolved,

Seismic fragility of steel-sheathed cold-formed steel-framed (CFSF) structures is scarcely investigated; thus, the information for estimation of seismic losses of the steel-sheathed CFSF buildings is insufficient.

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 ...

Multidimensional Seismic Fragility Study of Intake Towers Based on Incremental Dynamic Analysis
Assessing the fragility of intake towers using a single damage index does not allow for accurate evaluation of the potential for structural damage under seismic conditions.

Seismic Fragility Analysis of Structures Based on Adaptive Gaussian Process Regression Metamodel
Metamodel-based seismic fragility analysis methods can overcome the challenge of high computational costs of problems considering the uncertainties of earthquakes and structural parameters; however, the accuracy of metamodels is difficult to control.

Seismic Fragility Analysis of Bridge Pier
Abstract Bridges are classified as lifeline structures as they need to be functional in an earthquake event. The performance-based analysis of the existing bridges is important for the stakeholders. Information on seismic performance in terms of fragility of existing bridges in the country can provide valuable information to the decision-

Based on experimental results and theoretical analysis, an established rock damage accumulation model that comprehensively considers the preapplied static load, impact peak value, impact frequency, and impact times. Abstract To study the rock damage mechanism under high static loading and superimposed medium strain rate cyclic impact loading, a series ...
