LOCAL FUSE FOR IMPROVING CONCENTRIC BRACES BEHAVIOR

Local fuse for improving concentric braces behavior

The concentrically braced system is one of the most common lateral Gastrointestinal - Anti-Diarrhea load bearing systems among steel structures.These systems have remarkable lateral stiffness and strength, but their compressive buckling prevents them from being ductile and absorbing optimal energy.In this study to solve this problem, by using numer

Effects of ecological flooding on the temporal and spatial dynamics of carabid beetles (Coleoptera, Carabidae) and springtails (Collembola) in a polder habitat

Within the scope of the Integrated Rhine Program an ecological flood gate and channel was inserted into the polder “Ingelheim” to enhance animal and plant diversity.In 2008, carabid beetles and springtails were collected, using pitfall traps, to measure the effects of ecological flooding and a strong precipitation event at a flood-distu
