Indonesian inquiry: A narrative of biocultural teaching on Sulawesi Utara
Abstract Using phenomenology, narrative inquiry and autoethnographic approaches, this study analyses a program of faculty development conducted alongside the delivery of an international field school. Through this study, we explore the value and benefits of inter‐cultural field programming and how these might serve to complement or to redress ...

The Use of SMAV Model for Computing Fragility Curves
Among the buildings with strategic role for civil protection purposes part of them were built before the introduction of modern seismic codes. Aiming to guarantee their operability in case of seismic events, they have to be assessed and, hopefully ...

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

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

Blasting effects of cross‐fault deep‐buried excavation on adjacent existing tunnel stability
Based on the theoretical analysis of cylindrical wave propagation in a deep rock mass in the fault with a filling layer, the calculation method of peak particle velocity caused by wave propagation in the existing tunnel is established. The viscoelastic characteristics of a rock mass are examined in the analysis.
