In order to improve the seismic and energy dissipation capacity of the whole structure, a friction-oval section mild steel rod composite damper (FOSRCD) was proposed, and its working principle was clarified. The finite element analysis of FOSRCD was carr...

This study proposed a novel V-bracing system equipped with a laterally layered friction damper (LLFD), which can supplement the shortcomings of conventional vibration control systems and is applicable to existing reinforced concrete (R/C) buildings. A ma...

With increasing demand for load capacity and dynamic responses, the new generation of Gas Dynamic Foil Bearings (GDFB), assembled from preloaded elastic multi-leaf foils, has been put forward. It exhibits steady and dynamic characteristics that are more ...

Water hammer flow is examined, putting into evidence that unsteady friction cannot be fully responsible for observed oscillation damping. The measured piezometric head oscillations of water hammer flow experimental tests carried out for very long time (a...

This paper proposes a new type of steel slip-friction column base connections with arc end-plates. Two arc end-plates of the steel column base, which can slide between each other to some extent, were set at the position where the column base is subject t...

This paper reviews methods that aim at simulating nuclear quantum effects (NQEs) using generalized thermal baths. Generalized (or quantum) baths simulate statistical quantum features, and in particular zero-point energy effects, through non-Markovian sto...

Based on the concept of structural damage control, a beam-through steel frame system with continuous columns was constructed. Replaceable connectors were set at both ends of an H-shaped steel column to connect the beam with high-strength bolts. In this s...

Coral reefs function as submerged breakwaters providing wave mitigation and flood-reduction benefits for coastal communities. Although the wave-reducing capacity of reefs has been associated with wave breaking and friction, studies quantifying the relati...

The blisks and labyrinth seals in gas turbine engines are typical rotating periodic structures. Vibration problems will inevitably occur during the operation, which can easily lead to High Cycle Fatigue failure of the structure. Adding ring damper is an ...

Accurately estimating air?water gas exchanges requires considering other factors besides wind speed. These are particularly useful for coastal ocean applications, where the sea-state varies at fine spatial and temporal resolutions. We upgrade FuGas 2.5 w...
