The paper presents a methodology and an example of determining the floor response spectrum of nuclear power plant building structures under earthquake loads. When critical energy infrastructure facilities are consider...

Using molecular dynamics experiments, we analyze the association of "Janus" 6-amino-6-deoxy-2O-carboxymethyl-β-cyclodextrins (JCD) in aqueous solutions. In JCD dimers, the free energy associated with the primary-rim-sec...

Orientation: Brand awareness (BAW) and brand association (BASS) are important aspects in driving brand resonance (BR) to improve loyalty. Research purpose: This study examines how BR fosters customer loyalty (CL) among...

Abstract Traditional bridge structural condition assessments struggle to integrate the physical topological information of BIM models with the spatiotemporal evolution of long-term monitoring data, resulting in low asses...

Abstract Large language models are beginning to appear in civil engineering practice, yet their advice often reflects generalized narratives rather than local evidence. This perspective introduces a governance audit fram...

The results of a predictive analysis of the mock-up of a reactor containment building, based on computer numerical simulation, are presented in this paper and compared with the results obtained in the context of the VeRC...

This study evaluates the cost implications of green building practices in low-rise residential housing by analyzing three sample houses in Kayseri, Türkiye. It compares traditional construction systems with green altern...

As a key element of human settlements and fundamental features in maps, buildings play a critical role in urban planning and environmental monitoring. Automatically extracting buildings from remote sensing images is of s...

The article focuses on the impact of loads from railway rolling stock on the condition of the ballast prism, the propagation of vibrations in the foundation, and their effect on the dynamic behavior of a high-rise reinfo...

The military aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, through the use of the full range of enemy aerial attack means not only against military targets but also against critical infrastructure objects (herein...

"We present a technique to distinguish valid from invalid data structure objects. The technique is based on building an artificial neural network, more precisely a binary classifier, and training it to identify valid and...

Surface water recycling is essential for addressing water scarcity in arid regions like Iran. This study assesses the feasibility of enhancing surface water reuse in Tehran’s urban infrastructure by focusing on the cit...

Wood is a natural material widely used in construction. Unlike artificial building materials, wood is characterized by natural defects (flaws) that can negatively affect its performance under load. This study proposes a ...

Abstract Background High-quality routine health information (RHI) is essential for evidence-based decision-making and healthcare quality improvement. However, existing studies in Ethiopia have reported low data quality, ...

Photonic computing and neuromorphic computing are attracting tremendous interests in breaking the memory wall of traditional von Neumann architecture. Photonic memristors equipped with light sensing, data storage, and in...

Abstract Learning to program is not just about writing code. It is a complex process involving trial and error, hesitation, corrections, and sometimes silence. And each student experiences it in their own way. Understand...

The opening phase of a lesson can strongly influence students’ readiness to learn, yet teachers often receive limited, delayed feedback on the quality of this phase. This study examines which opening-lesson features ar...

This study assessed the adoption of digital financial services (DFS) among smallholder farmers in North Central Nigeria. It investigated their usage, knowledge, and how their educational level affected the adoption of DF...

Urbanisation, land use changes and tourism in disaster-prone high mountain areas or riskscapes have emerged as important research topics and major planning challenges at a global scale with the Himalayan region as a hots...

Abstract Employee sustainable performance (ESP) has emerged as a fragmented construct at the intersection of employee performance and sustainability. This review synthesizes and evaluates the ESP literature to clarify it...

Amidst Canada’s productivity crisis and widening social inequities, Humber Polytechnic’s Building Brilliance vision proposes that economic and social development must be treated as mutually reinforcing priorities rat...

The purpose of this paper is to present the historiophotic image of Carthage and Carthaginians and also to demonstrate what made-up stories take from the image of antiquity present in our collective consciousness, what m...
