Abstract Current design provisions for punching shear in foundations, including Eurocode 2 (2023) and fib Model Code 2020, are mechanically based models partly calibrated against experimental data from isolated flat slabs and foundation specimens. The available experimental database for foundations is small and only partly representative of realistic ...

Abstract This paper presents a regression‐based methodology to estimate the Torsional Stiffness Reduction Factor (TSRF) of reinforced concrete beams under combined torsion and shear. A numerical database of 6816 samples was generated using the Combined Action Softened Truss Model (CA‐STM) implemented in Python, considering design guidelines prescribed ...

Nondestructive damage detection in large structures via vibration monitoring
In this paper Nondestructive Damage Detection (NDD) in large/complex structures is investigated via vibration monitoring of such structures. The theory of NDD for truss type structures is formulated.

Robustness analysis of timber truss structure [PDF]
The present paper discusses robustness of structures in general and robustness requirements given in the codes. Robustness of timber structures is also an issues as this is closely related to Working group 3 (Robustness of systems) of the COST E55 project. Finally, example of robustness evaluation of a big span timber truss structure is given.

Design considerations for joints in deployable space truss structures [PDF]
All of the structures considered for the Control of Flexible Structures (COFS) flight experiments are deployable truss structures and their response will be dominated by the structural response of the joints.

Playing the System: Electoral Bias in the 2024 UK General Election
Abstract The UK's 2024 general election was the least proportional of modern times. Labour's substantial parliamentary majority rested on the smallest ever winning party vote share. The Conservatives, meanwhile, suffered one of their worst ever results.

Improved harmony search algorithms for sizing optimization of truss structures
Harmony search (HS) algorithm was conceptualized using an analogy with music improvisation process where music players improvise the pitches of their instruments to obtain better harmony.

Fragmented and Dealigned: The 2024 British General Election and the Rise of Place‐Based Politics
Abstract While the outcome of the 2024 British general election signalled a resounding repudiation of the incumbent government—returning a 231‐seat swing from the Conservatives to Labour—it did not radically overturn the geography of electoral outcomes in England and Wales.
