The complex seismic soil-pile-structure interaction phenomenon is related to the interaction between foundation and structure under seismic and dynamic excitations. An ef [...]

Advanced Gas Cooled Reactor (AGR) cores are multi-layered arrays of graphite components whose geometry and mechanical properties change under prolonged exposure to neutro [...]

The interaction between soil, foundation and structure during earthquake shaking is a complex phenomenon in which several mechanisms are involved. Soil-structure interact [...]

The dynamics of simple linear and nonlinear oscillators are explored conceptually using the potential well analogue. The model reveals useful conceptual interpretations o [...]

In the UK, most of the existing stock of concrete intake towers in reservoirs has been constructed for gravity loading only, with limited amounts of steel reinforcement p [...]

A scaled physical model of a nonlinear elastic moment resisting frame is designed and tested both statically and dynamically with the aim to validate a numerical model as [...]

This paper presents unidirectional shaking table tests of two steel frames; they are reduced scale models of two building structures with one and two floors, respectively [...]
