Assessment of nonlinear static (pushover) analysis procedures using field experience

open access: yes, 2020
Recently, many nonlinear analysis procedures have been proposed for earthquake response determination of the structures. Although, the nonlinear response history analysis (NRHA) is accepted as the most accurate source of information for nonlinear seismic response, nonlinear static procedures (NSP) may also provide reasonable estimates of seismic demand

Fast performance uncertainty estimation via pushover and approximate IDA

open access: yes, 2009
Approximate methods based on the static pushover are introduced to estimate the seismic performance uncertainty of structures having non-deterministic modeling parameters. At their basis lies the use of static pushover analysis to approximate Incremental

Posthumanism and Cybernetic Art: An Esthetic Exploration of Technology and Human Identity

open access: yesSociology Lens, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Posthumanism is a contemporary intellectual movement that redefines the relationship between humans, technology, biology, and culture. While questioning the traditional humanist perspective that places humans at the center of the universe, it also examines the transformative effects of technology on human identity.

Residual Strength Pushover Analysis: Enhanced Assessment of Seismic Platform Performance

open access: yes, 2017
For abnormal (ALE) and reliability (RLE) level earthquake events (return periods of 2,500-10,000 years) used in the design or assessment process, there is a need to establish the acceptance of the structure's ability to survive the event.

Leadership and the Virtue of Humanity: Conceptual Clarity, Systematic Review, and Future Research Agenda

open access: yesJournal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Humanity – the virtue enabling meaningful human connection – is vital to the leadership we need to survive our polycrisis context. As a prerequisite to sustainable human community, the virtue of humanity is considered universal. It has been claimed as a ‘higher‐order virtue’, comprised of and enacted by – but irreducible to – a suite of ‘lower‐

Fracture resistance and behavior of endodontically treated maxillary premolars with varying ferrule heights and post numbers: A laboratory study

open access: yesJournal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate how varying ferrule heights and the number of glass fiber posts affect fracture resistance and behavior of endodontically treated maxillary first premolars with substantial loss of tooth structure. Materials and Methods Twenty‐four extracted endodontically treated human maxillary first premolars were divided into three ...

Social Threat as Motivation for Phonetic Divergence: Evidence From Nonbinary Participants

open access: yesJournal of Sociolinguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates whether nonbinary speakers’ imitation of extended voice onset time (VOT) in word‐initial English /p, t, k/ is impacted by whether they believe they are listening to a nonbinary or binary model speaker. Forty‐five nonbinary American English speakers participated in an online VOT shadowing task, and the results find that ...

Phenotypic plasticity is broadly adaptive across an elevation gradient in the Cutleaf Monkeyflower

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Leaf shape plasticity expression is variable in Mimulus laciniatus. Summary Phenotypic plasticity is a key mechanism by which organisms cope with environmental heterogeneity, but its evolutionary consequences depend on how plastic responses align with the broader adaptive landscape.
