Structural optimisation problem in support to building retrofitting decision [PDF]
, 2005 Various analysis methods, either linear elastic or non-linear, static or dynamic, are available for the performance analysis of existing buildings. Despite its advantages, it must be admitted that non-linear time history analysis can frequently become ...

Seismic Behavior of Fatigue-Retrofitted Steel Frame Piers
Civil Engineering Dimension, 2013 Fatigue retrofit works have been conducted on severely fatigue damaged beam-to-column connections of existing steel frame bridge piers in Japan. It is clear that retrofit works provides additional stiffness but the significance on the seismic behavior of

Deterministic Cost Estimation Approaches for Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage: A Review
Greenhouse Gases: Science and Technology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) is regarded as a connection between traditional, high‐emission sectors and future green energy. This study encompasses literature from 2003 to early 2026 to review methodologies and formulae used for cost estimating in the various segments of carbon capture, transport, utilization, and storage ...
