State-dependent fractional plasticity model for the true triaxial behaviour of granular soil

Archives of Mechanics, 2019
The fractional plasticity was proposed to model the stress-strain behaviour of granular soils, but only within the scope of classical triaxial loading condition.

A new smooth failure criterion for concrete inspired by Lubliner's condition

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract A new failure criterion with 10 parameters is proposed, based on Lubliner's idea of joining two Drucker–Prager cones. The novelty lies in the way of introducing deviatoric shape variation: through two Podgórski's functions. This feature allows for improving plane stress cross‐section's compatibility with experimental data.

Triaxial Compression Performance Research of Steel Slag Concrete on the Unified Strength Theory

Applied Sciences, 2020
To better explore the mechanical properties of steel slag concrete (SSC) under triaxial compression, true triaxial tests were performed on SSC with three replacement ratios (30%, 70%, 100%) by a servo-controlled setup (TAWZ-5000/3000).

The Material Basis of 18th‐Century Meissen Porcelain

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the summer of 1708, the quest for making hard‐paste porcelain from Saxonian clay and other mineral resources succeeded. This was achieved by applying as its essential ingredient newly discovered pure kaolin from Heidelsberg near Aue, western Saxon Ore Mountains.

Deformation characteristics of coarse granular materials in large-scale true triaxial tests

Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2019
The deformation behaviors of coarse granular materials under three-dimensional stress state are crucial to the settlement of earth-rockfill dams. A series of tests under constant minor principle stress and constant coefficient of intermediate principle ...

Behavior of Long‐Slotted Perforated Steel Plate Fuses in Timber Brace End Connections

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 1247-1269, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Steel perforated plate fuses have emerged as a promising solution for mass timber seismic force‐resisting systems, offering tunable energy dissipation mechanisms, such as flexural and shear yielding, through geometric adjustments. This study examines the cyclic performance of perforated steel plate fuses employed in timber braced frames, with ...

Vertical‐Component Seismic Response and System Identification of a 52‐Story High‐Rise Building Using Earthquake Data

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
This study investigates the vertical dynamic response of a 52‐story high‐rise building in downtown Los Angeles using small‐magnitude earthquake data recorded by the Community Seismic Network. While seismic design traditionally emphasizes horizontal ground motion, vertical accelerations can have a significant impact on tall structures, leading to ...
