Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 1270-1291, May 2026.ABSTRACT This paper presents a novel yet practical friction‐based structural component design for low‐damage earthquake‐resistant structures. The proposed connection design is based on a conventional slotted‐bolted configuration with the novelty being the use of loose steel washer plates to establish the friction‐sliding interface.

A Comparison of Ground Motion Intensity Measures for Estimating Collapse
Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.This study examines the use of 15 different intensity measures (IMs) for estimating structural collapse using results from incremental dynamic analysis (IDA). IDA results from 54 numerical models were considered, including (i) 12 reinforced concrete (RC) frame structures, (ii) 16 RC wall–frame structures and (iii) 26 steel buckling‐restrained braced ...

Fossil Hegemony and Capitalist Realism in Tropic of Orange
Future Humanities, Volume 4, Issue 1, May 2026.ABSTRACT This article examines Karen Tei Yamashita's Tropic of Orange (1997) through the lens of Mark Fisher's influential concept ‘capitalist realism’. Scholars of petrofiction have pointed to a political ambivalence in the representation of fossil fuels, where a better understanding of fossil capital can overwhelm as much as galvanize.

Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 64, Issue 9, Page 1860-1894, 1 May 2026.This review examines bio‐based polyurethanes from renewable feedstocks, focusing on structure‐property relationships governing mechanical performance. It analyzes reinforcement strategies, benchmarks against petrochemical counterparts, and explores future directions, including non‐isocyanate routes and circular economy integration for sustainable high ...

Numerical modelling of steel plate girders at normal and elevated temperatures [PDF]
, 2016 The main goal of this study is to increase the knowledge on the behaviour of steel plate girders subjected to shear buckling at both normal and elevated temperatures. Hence, numerical models were duly validated with experimental tests from the literature.

Strength of corroded tapered plate girders under pure shear [PDF]
, 2006 Corrosion is one of the most important causes of deterioration of steel girder bridges. The lack of information concerning the behaviour of corroded web panels makes difficult the civil engineer’s task of evaluating the deteriorated member.

A Component-Based Approach to Modelling Beam Bottom Flange Buckling at Elevated Temperatures [PDF]
, 2015 In this study, an analytical model of the combination of beam-web shear buckling and bottom-flange buckling at elevated temperatures has been created. This analytical model is able to track the force-deflection path in the post-buckling stage. A range of
