Civil 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

Seismic history of the Maltese islands and considerations on seismic risk [PDF]
Annals of Geophysics, 2009 A historical catalogue of felt earthquakes in the Maltese islands has been compiled dating back to 1530. Although no fatalities were officially recorded during this time as a direct consequence of earthquake effects, serious damage to buildings occurred several times. In the catalogue time period, the islands experienced EMS-98 intensity

Seismic reliability assessment of classical columns subjected to near-fault ground motions [PDF]
, 2013 A methodology for the performance-based seismic risk assessment of classical columns is presented. Despite their apparent instability, classical columns are, in general, earthquake resistant, as proven from the fact that many classical monuments have ...

Itinerant curriculum theory: People's theory against the field's epistemicidal ethos
The Curriculum Journal, EarlyView.Abstract The field of curriculum studies suffers from a glaring theoretical impasse. Much of this impasse has been rightly attributed to the triumphalism of the neoliberal wave that has massacred the educational hemisphere with policies and practices that reduce pedagogy to an instrumentalist praxis directly associated with the thirsty desires and ...

Influence of near-fault effects and of incident angle of earthquake waves on the seismic inelastic demands of a typical Jack-Up platform [PDF]
, 2013 In this paper, the potential influence of near-fault effects and of the incident angle of earthquake waves to the seismic response of a typical jack-up offshore platform is assessed by means of incremental dynamic analysis involving a three dimensional ...

TO THE ASSESSMENT OF SEISMIC RISK OF AREAS
Herald of Dagestan State Technical University. Technical Sciences, 2014 The main components of seismic risk areas are: seismic hazard, seismic vulnerability of the elements of building area, social and economic losses in the earthquake. Each of them depends on a large number of parameters, both the earthquake and buildings. One of the main object is the lack of earthquake resistance of buildings on the basis of which.
