A Resilience‐Based Reward‐Penalty Scheme for Hardening Electricity Distribution Assets Against High‐Impact, Low‐Probability Disasters

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This paper introduces a novel resilience‐based reward‐penalty scheme (RPS) for electricity grids facing high‐impact, low‐probability (HILP) disasters. By modeling the costs of proactive asset immunization against reactive RPS penalties, our analysis conclusively demonstrates that long‐term investment in grid resilience is the more economically rational

Multifactorial Screening for Fine‐Scale Selection of CCS Industrial Clusters and Hubs in Brazil

open access: yesGreenhouse Gases: Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As Brazil moves toward implementing its decarbonization commitments, carbon capture and storage (CCS) hubs are emerging as a key pathway for large‐scale CO2 abatement in hard‐to‐abate sectors. This paper presents a multifactorial, data‐driven framework to screen and prioritize potential CCS industrial clusters and hubs across Brazilian regions,

Designing and Characterizing Negative Stiffness Devices for Apparent Weakening and Vertical Isolation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Nonlinear systems leveraging the effects of negative stiffness can exhibit beneficial qualities for passive seismic mitigation in structures. Such systems can be achieved by placing nonlinear devices displaying negative stiffness in parallel with linear ...

Mesozoic–Cenozoic Thermochronology of the Tarim–Southern Tianshan System, NW China

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
Tectonothermal history of the Tarim–Southern Tianshan system compared with the major tectonic events at far‐field plate margins. ABSTRACT The Tarim Basin, an oil‐bearing basin in northwest China, is tectonically and sedimentologically linked to the Southern Tianshan Orogenic Belt.

Multiphase Tectonic Process With Slab Dynamics in the Northern East China Sea Shelf Basin

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
Megasequence 1 characterised by Palaeocene extension and differential subsidence driven by the rollback of the subducting Izanagi Plate. Megasequence 2 records a kinematic reorganisation of the East Asian margin, transition from a rifting to a compressional regime.

Tuned mass damper for reduction seismic and wind loads

open access: yesMagazine of Civil Engineering
Tuned mass dampers (TMDs) are used mainly for reduction of seismic and wind oscillations in high-rise buildings. It is well known that base isolation is ineffective in tall buildings.
