The behavior of reinforced concrete with large strain under dynamic loading is non-linear. The non-linear modeling of the reality exactly is much difficult due to a lot of boundary conditions and limited resources. However, the engineering requirement of solutions is somehow relaxed. i.e. it only needs to be within certain limits of errors. This paper presents the interpretation of the structur...

Staphylococcus aureus FemA mutant grown in the presence of an alanine-racemase inhibitor was labeled with d-[1-(13)C]alanine, l-[3-(13)C]alanine, [2-(13)C]glycine, and l-[5-(19)F]lysine to characterize some details of the peptidoglycan tertiary structure. Rotational-echo double-resonance (REDOR) NMR of isolated cell walls was used to measure internuclear distances between (13)C-labeled alanines...

Crises, such as thunderstorms and an increasing number of (recognised) terroristic attacks in 2015, 2016, and 2017, do not only lead to extensive monetary damage, but also threaten human lives and influence citizens’ perceptions of safety and security. In such situations, the population demands information about the damage and safe behaviour. Although some apps are available to provide this inf...

The disaster clearinghouse concept originates with the earthquake community as an effort to coordinate research and data collection activities. Though prior earthquake clearinghouses are small in comparison to what was needed in response to Hurricane Katrina, these seminal structures are germane to the establishment of our current model. On 3 September 2005, five days after Katrina wrought cata...

The unanticipated brittle fracture of connection of the steel moment resisting frame (SMRF) occurred in 1994 the Northridge earthquake. Since then, the researches for the vulnerability of connection of the existing SMRF and for rehabilitation of those buildings were conducted. This paper suggests performance-based optimal seismic retrofit technique using connection upgrade. For optimal design, ...

The discussion on the quality of digital elevation models form airborne laser scanner was dominated by the proof of vertical and horizontal accuracy. If the accuracy criteria were verified by ground control points, the evidence of high quality was produced. Based on experiences in projects for the Swiss Federal Office of Topography and according to the lidar requirements formulated by the US Am...

Disaster recovery is a key capability of federal, state, and local government. To support this capability effectively practitioners need useful and validated metrics to document how well a community is recovering from a particular disaster. This study developed and categorised recovery indicators according to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)'s Recovery Support Functions and Recove...

Oleh karena itu dalam perancangan bangunan perlu memperhitungkan gaya akibat Penggunaan shear wall mampu mengoptimalkan kinerja struktur dengan Gedung Pabrik X didesain menggunakan agar dapat diketahui perilaku dan level strukturnya apabila terkena gempa kemudian dibandingkan gedung tanpa . Dalam analisis respon spektrum pushove...

On September 21, 2020, the Pasar Wage Building of Kabupaten Banyumas was hit by a fire causing spalling concrete and thus exposing steel reinforcement. This damage can affect performance safety building. For this reason, an evaluation is needed to determine post-fire structure propose necessary repair retrofitting. Investigation testing in field were carried out study as primary data for seismi...
