Traffic emission impacts the air quality at both the road surface and in near road buildings. Previous research has examined the benefit of using roof-level wind catchers to reduce concentration along building facades in urban environments. Although roof-level interventions are more effective in improving the street canyon air quality in its entirety, localized re-distributions that detrimentally affect specific regions in and around the street canyons are unavoidable. In the current work, a deflector system that can adjust its position and orientation to changing ambient conditions is introduced to ensure that no particular region perpetually experiences compromised air quality. At optimal roof-level positions, the wind deflectors resulted in a local maximum and minimum of pollution removal through mean flow-induced fluxes and overall canyon concentrations respectively. In this study, the potential of the wind deflectors was first demonstrated using 2D Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) investigations. A maximum reduction in overall canyon concentration of 2.84 fold was predicted when the deflector was placed 2 m from the leeward walls. Subsequently, the benefit of the dynamic nature of the intervention and the efficacy of the same in a more realistic 3D city-type environment was demonstrated by considering two different pollution source conditions. The wind deflectors performed modestly for the Cross Road Pollution (CRP) source model by reducing 7%, 11% and 13% of CO exposure on the leeward wall, upwind side wall and downwind side wall without affecting the windward wall of the target street canyon. Whereas for the Side Road Pollution (SRP) source model, it reduced 91%, 32% and 34% on the same with a 17% reduction on the windward wall of the target street canyon. Finally, the concept of an adjustable deflector system was demonstrated to mitigate prolonged high exposure for building occupants exposed to changing traffic emission sources via all the surrounding buil

The ACI-318 code presents span-to-depth ratio expressions for solid, non-prestressed one-way slabs to control deflection when the impact on nonstructural items is not significant. These expressions relate slab thickness to span length, incorporating adjustments for steel yield strength and concrete density. However, they do not account for key design factors such as live load and concrete compressive strength, often resulting in conservative slab thickness estimates where the minimum reinforcement ratio is used. The adoption of the Bischoff formula for the effective moment of inertia in ACI-318-19 has further increased predicted deflections compared to the previous Branson formula, necessitating a review of span-to-depth ratio accuracy for deflection control. This study evaluates the compatibility of existing span-to-depth limits with deflections predicted using the Bischoff formula and proposes a new, efficient span-to-depth ratio formula for one-way slab design. The proposed expression incorporates key design factors, including concrete compressive strength, live load, and span length. A parametric analysis was performed to assess the influence of these parameters, and the new formula was derived based on deflection calculations and ACI-318 deflection limits. The suggested span-to-depth ratio is advised for slabs that do not support or connect to elements vulnerable to damage due to excessive deflections. Verification through case studies demonstrates that the predicted deflections using the proposed formula remain within ACI-318 limits while achieving more efficient designs with reduced slab thickness. © The Author(s) 2025.

A simplified trilinear concrete stress–strain curve: energy-based modeling of experimental data compliant with various codes

The stress–strain relationship of concrete is a key factor in structural engineering, helping to determine how concrete elements respond to loads in terms of strength and deformation. The accuracy of these evaluations depends on the shape of the stress–strain curve, the mathematical model used to represent it, the precise identification of the peak stress point, and the behavior of the material after reaching its peak strength. Energy-based modeling has gained recognition as a powerful and adaptable approach for analyzing concrete mechanical properties. By integrating the stress–strain curve, this method effectively captures energy dissipation and material behavior, providing valuable insights into performance. This study utilizes energy-based modeling to analyze experimental data and develop a more simple and precise stress–strain relationship for concrete. The proposed model is rigorously evaluated by comparing its predictions with experimental results and the idealized response curves from various structural design codes. The findings reveal that the new model aligns more closely with experimental data. This improved accuracy highlights its potential to enhance the reliability of concrete behavior predictions in structural applications. © The Author(s) 2025.

In this study, PIV and wind pressure experiments were carried out under tornado-like wind flow affected by surface roughness. The authors discussed the effects of swirl ratio and roughness density on the velocity field and the pressure deficit characteristics near the surface. It was confirmed that the velocity field structure gradually transitioned by changing swirl ratio and roughness density. Next, the pressure deficit characteristics showed that the measured pressure was the lowest when the roughness density was 0.014 at any swirl ratio. In the above discussion, the models on the radial velocity distribution and the pressure deficit distribution were proposed. © 2025 Architectural Institute of Japan. All rights reserved.

In order to meet the new demand for sustainability and lower carbon emissions for concrete, the production and recycling process has to be adapted. Regarding concrete recycling, the main focus in literature and industry is on the reuse of coarse aggregates. However, the recycling of concrete also generates a fine fraction. In this research, the fine fraction with size 0/2 is ground and studied as a partial cement replacement. First of all, the fines were characterized and their physical, chemical and mineralogical properties were determined. Preliminary tests on pastes and mortars with 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% and 30% cement replacement, such as isothermal calorimetry and strength tests, were performed. Based on these results, two concrete mixes were made: one reference mix with CEM I as a binder and natural aggregates and a concrete mix with 10% of CEM I replaced by concrete fines and a combination of natural and recycled aggregates. In this second mix, 27.8% of the sand and 100% of the coarse aggregates were replaced by recycled sand and recycled coarse aggregates. The concrete samples were tested on compressive strength, shrinkage and freeze–thaw resistance. The compressive strength of the green concrete was comparable to the strength of the reference concrete after 28, 56 and 90 days of curing. Concrete specimens containing the recycled fines and recycled aggregates had a higher drying shrinkage;however, a lower autogenous shrinkage was measured in comparison to the reference. Regarding durability, the green concrete had a lower freeze–thaw resistance compared to the reference. © The Author(s) 2025.

Remote stress fracture criterion in peridynamics

engineering with Computers 2025年 1-24页

In this study, we propose a remote stress criterion for brittle fracture within the framework of peridynamics. The concept of bond stress is linked to the classical notion of local stress. An analytical and numerical investigation of bond stress near the crack tip is conducted using Sneddon-Williams asymptotic solutions for tensile opening (Mode I). Subsequently, we introduce a linearized structural-temporal fracture criterion, enabling the formulation of a remote stress fracture criterion. This criterion is derived for 2D and 3D scenarios and accommodates both uniform and non-uniform discretizations. Its validity is demonstrated through numerical verification tests. The proposed remote stress approach introduces, for the first time, a bond failure criterion directly based on the critical stress intensity factor. © The Author(s) 2025.

Self-centering dual rocking core (SDRC) system was developed to improve the seismic relicense of the buildings. However, analysis of the multi-story and high-rise rocking SDRC systems revealed that the higher mode effects led to amplified force demands in the structural members, hence worsening the seismic performance of the structures. To elucidate the working mechanism of the higher mode, analyze the dynamic characteristics of the SDRC systems, and provide design suggestions for the SDRC systems accounting for the higher mode effects, this paper proposed a novel simplified distributed parameter model. Based on the developed simplified model, the modal shape and the characteristic equation of the SDRC system were solved to study the effects of the structural design parameters on the eigenvalues, modal shapes, and internal force distribution of the rocking cores. Based on the analysis results, some structural design recommendations were proposed. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2025.

Limit analysis provides a simple yet effective means of verifying the safety of masonry constructions. Of the numerical rigid block-based approaches that have been developed for this purpose, it has been common to model rocking, sliding and/or crushing of the masonry by use of suitable joint interface failure envelopes. However, in this case failure can only occur at joints (or at a limited number of other pre-defined failure planes). Also, as it will seldom be feasible to model every masonry unit in a real physical construction with a rigid block, engineering judgement must usually be exercised on the number of rigid blocks to be employed;if too few blocks are used there is a danger of over-estimating the safety of a given construction. In this contribution discontinuity layout optimization (DLO) is used as a powerful alternative to the traditional rigid block limit analysis method. DLO involves discretizing a solid body using nodes, and then interconnecting node pairs with potential discontinuities. Parametric surfaces are used to describe the geometry, allowing discontinuities to be identified even within curved structures. A homogenized masonry failure envelope is used to enable a masonry construction comprising numerous physical units to be modelled in a computationally efficient manner. Solutions are obtained using optimization, with the critical subset of discontinuities at failure that define the geometry of the critical failure mechanism sought. In the contribution the proposed approach is applied to simple 3D example problems, demonstrating the efficacy and computational efficiency of the proposed DLO-based analysis approach. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2025.

The masonry-infilled reinforced concrete (RC) frame is a common architectural form in many countries around the world. Extensive studies have been conducted to investigate the differences between RC sole frames and masonry-infilled RC frames. Various models, such as equivalent strut models and finite element method-based models, have been proposed to simplify and analyze the seismic performance of a masonry-infilled RC frame. However, the frame-infill interaction effect has not been fully understood. In this paper, a three-dimensional rigid body spring model based on the discrete element method (DEM) was developed to simulate the seismic performance of a masonry-infilled RC frame, such as the lateral bearing capacity, initial stiffness, failure modes and load-displacement curves. Four models with different infilled walls, i.e., hollow clay bricks, concrete hollow blocks, ceramsite concrete blocks, and aerated concrete blocks, were verified by experimental findings from the literature. Stress of the springs between the concrete and masonry elements versus the lateral load was extracted to analyze the frame-infill interaction effect. Based on the analysis of the stress of different specimens, the strength of masonry mortars and the thickness of infilled walls might influence the frame-infill interaction. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2025.
