Abstract The dynamic slip behavior of faults is strongly influenced by the thermal and hydraulic properties of pore fluids, which control thermal pressurization (TP) during seismic slip. While previous experiments showed significant TP‐induced weakening in DI‐water‐saturated Groningen sandstone gouges, in situ fluids are brine or brine–gas mixtures ...

This work shows experimentally the possibility of serpentinization (main mechanism of natural hydrogen) at room temperature and ambient pressure, which may provide the rapidly growing hydrogen economy with inspirations to explore new natural hydrogen deposits and new methods for hydrogen production. Natural hydrogen, or “white hydrogen,” is a promising

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
