In this investigation, a U-shaped connection (U-C) was introduced for a prefabricated steel plate shear wall with beam-only connections. This design replaces a portion of shear bolts with tension bolts to enhance bolt efficiency and reduce the overall bo...

In recent years, the primary sector in Italy and elsewhere has been profoundly affected by climate change and a deep economic crisis, mainly linked to stagnating prices and rising production costs. Because of this situation, we are witnessing renewed int...

As a structural indicator of dense subgraphs, k-core has been widely used in community search due to its concise and efficient calculation. Many community search algorithms have been expanded on the basis of k-core. However, relevant algorithms often set...

Weeds compete with rice for sunlight and nutrients and are prone to harboring pathogens, leading to reduced rice yields. Addressing the issues of low weeding efficiency and weed mortality rates in existing inter-row weeding devices, the study proposes th...

Compared with the conventional horizontal conveyor-chain-type plastic-film-picking device, the longitudinal nail-tooth-chain-plate-type plastic-film-picking device developed by our team in the early stage has little tearing effect on the mulching film, a...

For structural design purposes, human-induced loads on pedestrian systems can be described by several simplified (i.e., deterministic equivalent-force models) or more complex computational approaches. Among others, the Spring-Mass-Damper (SMD), Single De...

Recently, in Chile, infrastructure asset value has been incorporated into highway concession contracts. However, the current valuation model used for rigid pavements is not adapted to the standards and conditions of such projects. This study develops a v...
