Response reduction map for two-degree-of-freedom system with friction

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2014
This paper deals with the response reduction effect by friction under 2-dof system. The friction behaviour is effective for dissipating seismic energy.

Seismic response analysis of nonlinear structures

open access: yesProbabilistic Engineering Mechanics, 1986
Abstract A solution method for the response of a class of nonlinear viscoelastic shear building structures subjected to stochastic excitation has been developed by means of a stochastic equivalent linearlization technique. The nonlinear viscoelastic properties of the structures are modelled in terms of an equation of motion which linearly involves ...

Fundamentals of Thermal Transport and Energy Conversion in Ultra‐High Temperature Ceramics: From Microscale Mechanisms to Macroscopic Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This review critically examines thermal transport and radiative properties of ultra‐high temperature ceramics for hypersonic flight, advanced nuclear systems, and next‐generation energy conversion devices. It explores phonon–photon–electron interactions, microstructural engineering, thermoelectric conversion, and machine learning‐accelerated multiscale

Development of Seismic Demand for Chang-Bin Offshore Wind Farm in Taiwan Strait

open access: yesEnergies, 2016
Taiwan is located on the Pacific seismic belt, and the soil conditions of Taiwan’s offshore wind farms are softer than those in Europe. To ensure safety and stability of the offshore wind turbine supporting structures, it is important to assess the ...

Challenges and Opportunities in Multi‐Method Integrated Geophysical Prospection of Buried Building Remains at the Sanctuary of Olympia

open access: yesArchaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ancient Olympia was one of the most important sanctuaries and the venue for the Olympic Games in Greek and Roman times. Its remains are located in the Olympia Terrace (Peloponnese, Greece) at the present‐day confluence of the rivers Alpheios and Kladeos at the base of Mount Kronos.

Scanning Parametric Sediment Echosounder as Tool for Underwater Archaeological Prospection

open access: yesArchaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Underwater cultural heritage 3D prospection techniques, especially for remains that are partly buried in the ground, are only very rarely available and often can only be applied with considerable technical effort. To overcome this limitation, we evaluate a methodological adaption of widely used and available single channel parametric sediment ...

Investigation on damage evaluation index with ductility factor based on simulation analysis for loading test of piping support structure

open access: yesMechanical Engineering Journal
The importance of seismic probabilistic risk assessment has drawn considerable attention for improving the seismic safety of nuclear facilities against earthquakes that exceed the design input ground motion.

Effect of the plasticity of pipe and support on the seismic response of piping systems

open access: yesMechanical Engineering Journal, 2023
This paper describes the results of seismic analyses conducted to clarify the effects of the plasticity of the pipe and its supports on the seismic response of the entire piping system.

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 ...
