Experimental study on seismic behavior of reinforced concrete shear walls with low shear span ratio
Abstract Shear span ratio (SSR) is a key factor affecting the structural and seismic behavior of shear walls. Existing experimental studies on the seismic behavior of shear walls with SSR less than 1.0 are limited. In order to study the seismic behavior of squat reinforced concrete (RC) shear walls, 16 specimens (of which four specimens were ...

Shear rate effect on the residual strength characteristics of saturated loess in naturally drained ring shear tests [PDF]
Residual shear strength of soils is an important soil parameter for assessing the stability of landslides. To investigate the effect of the shear rate on the residual shear strength of loessic soils, a series of naturally drained ring shear tests were ...

Effect of shear span-to-depth ratio on behavior of sandwich core steel girder with corrugated web
Girders with corrugated steel web are preferred and widely used in recently constructed bridges and industrial buildings. Sandwich core girders with corrugated web are constructed by adding two plates (skins) to the corrugated web.

Environmental sensitivities of shallow-cumulus dilution – Part 2: Vertical wind profile [PDF]
This second part of a numerical study on shallow-cumulus dilution focuses on the sensitivity of cloud dilution to changes in the vertical wind profile. Insights are obtained through large-eddy simulations of maritime and continental cloud fields.
