Behaviour of steel columns under 3-D seismic load

open access: yes, 2011
In the current Japanese bridge design code, the seismic load of only one direction (1-dimension, 1-d) is considered. However, in fact, an actual seismic load has three components for N-S (north-south), E-W (east-west) and U-D (up-down) directions.

Analysis of Seepage Effects on Seabed Slope Stability Under Earthquake Loading

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
To find out the combined effect of seismic action, seepage, and sandy and argillaceous interlayers on the seabed slope stability, the safety factors of seabed slopes, which include sandy and argillaceous interlayers, under different hydraulic gradients ...

Load combinations in performance-based designing of earthquake-resisting structures

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
Load combinations for seismic and other loads are considered. To this aim the equiprobable sets of loads with the corresponding probabilities are analyzed. The combination of motor-car and seismic loads is considered in details.

Ground-Borne Vibration Due to Construction Works with Respect to Brownfield Areas

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
Ground-borne vibration caused by mechanized construction works is the most common problem in built-up areas in general. In post-industrial cities, there are many building facilities in the category of brownfields.

Influence of plastic strain on fatigue damage assessment for seismic load (Proposal Ks factor as an alternative to Ke factor)

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2021
In the fatigue damage assessments in component design, the elastic-plastic strain range is estimated from the elastic strain by using the so-called Ke factor. The Ke factor corresponds to the ratio of the strain range obtained by elastic analysis to that

Geophysical Investigations of Near-Surface Structure on the Earth and Mars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
I use remote sensing and active seismic methods to investigate near-surface structure on the Earth and Mars. These studies provide insight into styles of crustal deformation acting on continental margins in regions of extension, as well as paleoclimates ...

English teachers' journeys since the 2020 Iteration of Black Lives Matter

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
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 ...

Ensemble‐based soil liquefaction assessment: Leveraging CPT data for enhanced predictions

open access: yesCivil Engineering Design, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 23-35, March 2025.
Abstract This study focuses on predicting soil liquefaction, a critical phenomenon that can significantly impact the stability and safety of structures during seismic events. Accurate liquefaction assessment is vital for geotechnical engineering, as it informs the design and mitigation strategies needed to safeguard infrastructure and reduce the risk ...

Hyperledger Fabric for the (digitalized) lifecycle of construction products: Applied review on fastening technology

open access: yesCivil Engineering Design, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 9-22, March 2025.
Abstract Blockchain technology is a digital decentralized data ledger recording transactions in an encrypted format. Its implementation can potentially hold significant advantages for the built environment, particularly in manufacturing and building product usage aligned with Building Information Modeling (BIM). This paradigm shift toward decentralized
