Seismic Response of Existing Masonry‐Infilled RC Frame Structures Retrofitted with Steel Exoskeletons

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Considering the needs for reducing carbon emissions and except for extreme cases of very degraded existing structures, research on technologies allowing continued use or upgrading of older buildings has become a priority topic. Generally, research on upgrading of reinforced concrete frame structures certainly has a prominent role, because of ...

A Novel Bipolar DC Connection Strategy for Photovoltaic Power Plants With a 50% Reduction in DC Cabling Length

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Bipolar configuration is a new topology in the direct current (DC) system of photovoltaic power plants, which is topologically analogous to the bipolar configuration utilised in High‐Voltage Direct Current power transmission systems. DC cable length and copper usage are reduced by 50% using a bipolar configuration.

Forced Draught Impact on Externally Venting Flames: An Experimental and Numerical Investigation

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wind can significantly influence fire development and spread in urban and forest environments causing fatal consequences for the public, the first responders, and the environment. Wind‐driven fires can have a significant impact on structural fires as wind can increase the fire's intensity, development, and flame spread.

Burning Lessons: The Failure to Learn From Major Fire Incidents

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Major fire disasters continue to cause substantial loss of life, economic damage, and social disruption worldwide. Although investigations occur in most countries, lessons learned are often fragmented, published in incompatible formats, or not published at all.
