RISDiscussion of “Experimental Investigation of Seismic Uncertainty Propagation through Shake Table Tests” by Peng Deng, Shiling Pei, John W. van de Lindt, and Chao Zhang
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Modulation of the Influence of ENSO on Northward-Moving Tropical Cyclones in the Western North Pacific by the North Atlantic Tripole SST Anomaly Pattern
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The frequency characteristics of northward-moving tropical cyclones (NTCs) in the western North Pacific (WNP) are analyzed, and the possible combined effect of El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and the North Atlantic ...
Discrete Optimum Design for Truss Structures by Subset Simulation Algorithm
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This article deals with the design optimization of truss structures with discrete design variables, which remains quite a challenging task in structural design. A new discrete search strategy based on the recently developed ...
Modeling Methods for Collapse Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Frames with Infill Walls
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Progressive collapse behavior of RC infilled frames is studied experimentally under quasi-static loading and numerically by using macro (strut) and micro (finite-element) models to simulate the damage propagation within ...
Polyvinylchloride Ultrafiltration Membranes Modified with Different SiO2 Particles and Their Antifouling Mechanism for Oil Extraction Wastewater
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Novel low-cost and antifouling polyvinylchloride (PVC)–based membranes were fabricated with regular and hydrophilic nano-
Second Remediation of Long-Term Deflection and Cracking of PT Box-Girder Bridge Using External Post-Tensioning
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This study involves examining a second technique for improving external prestressing tendons to remediate the deflection and cracking of an 18-year-old strengthened four-span continuous post-tensioned prestressed concrete ...
