Optimal Earthquake Intensity Measures for Probabilistic Seismic Demand Models of Base-Isolated Nuclear Power Plant Structures

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the optimal earthquake intensity measures (IMs) for probabilistic seismic demand models (PSDMs) of the base-isolated nuclear power plant (NPP) structures. The numerical model of NPP structures is developed using a

Seismic Evaluation of Steel Plate Shear Walls in Different Configurations [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Rehabilitation in Civil Engineering
Steel plate shear walls (SPSWs) are a cost-efficient system to resist seismic lateral loads. Post-buckling strength, tension field action, and high energy absorption capacity are among the advantages of SPSWs. A beam-coupled SPSW consists of two pairs of

Time history analysis formulation in SCAD FEA software [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Measurements in Engineering, 2018
This paper provides the formulation of the problem of forced vibrations of structures, which has the following peculiarities: equations of motion are formulated in absolute coordinates allowing to take into account the asynchronous excitations of the supports, smoothing of the time functions for forced displacements with the help of Hermite polynomials,

Health‐Related Social Needs in Children With Sickle Cell Disease Are Associated With Worse Health‐Related Quality of Life

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Children with sickle cell disease (SCD) face multiple acute and chronic medical complications that may impact their quality of life as reported by patients themselves. Health‐related social needs (HRSNs), such as food and housing insecurity, are common in people with SCD, but the association between HRSNs and patient‐reported ...
