Damage-Involved Structural Pounding in Bridges under Seismic Excitation

open access: yes, 2017
During severe earthquakes, pounding between adjacent superstructure segments of highway elevated bridges was often observed. It is usually caused by the seismic wave propagation effect and may lead to significant damage.

Integrating multimodal data and machine learning for entrepreneurship research

open access: yesStrategic Entrepreneurship Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Extant research in neuroscience suggests that human perception is multimodal in nature—we model the world integrating diverse data sources such as sound, images, taste, and smell. Working in a dynamic environment, entrepreneurs are expected to draw on multimodal inputs in their decision making.

Modified Hertz-damp model for base-isolated structural pounding simulation under near-fault earthquakes

open access: yes, 2017
Pounding phenomenon between base-isolated structures under near-fault earthquakes has been widely investigated with various impact models around the world. Firstly, the existing impact analysis models are summarized and discussed in this paper.

Two hearts that beat as one: Signals, narratives, and financing (less) novel ventures via equity crowdfunding

open access: yesStrategic Entrepreneurship Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Financial resource acquisition is crucial for ventures but hindered by uncertainty. While signaling mitigates this uncertainty, its effectiveness hinges on venture novelty and the narratives used to clarify embedded information. Adopting a configurational lens, we examine the interplay among novelty, signals, and narratives in

Merger Efficiency and Coordinated Effects: Nothing to Sneeze at? Evidence From Cough and Cold Medicines in the Philippines

open access: yesSouthern Economic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We investigate the competitive effects of a merger in the cough and cold medicines segment between GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) and Pfizer. The parties offered efficiency gains, and authorities concluded the merger would not lessen competition. Using product‐level data from the Philippines, we estimate a structural demand model to assess efficiency ...

An Updated Analytical Structural Pounding Force Model Based on Viscoelasticity of Materials

open access: yes, 2016
Based on the summary of existing pounding force analytical models, an updated pounding force analysis method is proposed by introducing viscoelastic constitutive model and contact mechanics method. Traditional Kelvin viscoelastic pounding force model can

It's Not You, It's the System: Women Professors in TESOL and the Persistence of Gender Bias

open access: yesTESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Although progress has been made with respect to the role and position of women in academia, overt and covert discrimination as well as structural and systemic bias persist. In this article, we report on research conducted with 14 women professors from 10 different countries to explore to what extent these issues affect women professors in ...

Building damage due to structural pounding during earthquakes

open access: yes, 2015
Earthquake-induced pounding between adjacent buildings has been identified as one of the reasons for substantial damage or even total collapse of colliding structures.

“Why Can't They Just Stay?” A Critical Conversation and Membership Categorization Analysis of Racial Neoliberalism in English Language Education

open access: yesTESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract In this article, I analyze the co‐constitution of race and neoliberalism within the discourse of an English language classroom. Appealing to modernist/colonial histories of race and capital, I first examine how racial neoliberalism produces a normalized, unmarked subject‐position through the conflation of moral responsibility with human ...

Seismic Pounding between Adjacent Building Structures

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Structural Engineering, 2006
Investigations of past and recent earthquake damage have illustrated that the building structures are vulnerable to severe damage and/or collapse during moderate to strong ground motion.
