Determination and evaluation of the seismic behaviour factor of high-post-yield stiffness concentrically-braced steel frames for improved seismic resilience
(Heriot-Watt University Energy, Geoscience, Infrastructure and Society, 2023-04)Eurocode-8 aims to protect human life from a design-seismic event and damage restriction for a frequent seismic event. However, it doesn’t restrict the residual deformations and doesn’t consider confining the damage ... -
Generic wireless sensor network for dynamic monitoring of a new generation of building material
(Heriot-Watt University Energy, Geoscience, Infrastructure and Society, 2022-12)Existing testing methods for building materials before deployment include a series of procedures as stipulated in British Standards, and most tests are performed in a controlled laboratory environment. Types of equipment ... -
