Non-Linear Dynamic Analysis of High-Rise Flat Slab Structure with Various Lateral Load Resisting System: Indian Scenario
Abstract: In this technological era, the construction of high-rise flat slab structure is increasing everywhere, due to its major advantages over a conventional beam slab structure. Due to the poor performance of high-rise flat slab structure in higher seismic zones, IS 1893 (Part 1): 2016 discourages the use of flat slab structure in higher seismic zones. The use of high-rise flat slab structure in high seismic region is a risk, because …

A study to investigate the shear strength resistance of Ennore sand from conventional direct shear test.
Abstract: In this article analysis of shear strength parameters of Ennore Sand is given using the direct shear test. The shear strength parameters of cohesion and angle of shearing resistance are employed in the construction of geotechnical constructions to describe the soil's ability to sustain shear stress when subjected to a certain load. These might be measured using laboratory or field testing. When shearing a sample in a direct shear apparatus, …

On the Optimisation of fundamental frequency to determine the Optimal Design of Bracing System for A Three Storey One Bay Two Dimensional Planar Structure
Abstract: Bracing systems are useful to improve the resistance of multi-storey buildings subjected to wind forces acting in lateral direction on the structure. The main focus of this paper is to find the optimal design of the bracing for a three storey one bay two dimensional planar structure. The eigen frequency of the structure is maximized to determine the relative density using a stress based criteria of each element for every …

Analysis of Tall Structures for Different Stiffness Ratios of Columns to Shear Walls and Column Shortening
Abstract: Differential axial shortening in a structure causes axial force redistribution among columns and walls, and introduces additional forces in the horizontal members such as beams and slab. Hence, it needs to be considered in the design, especially for medium to high-rise buildings. The best way to illustrate differential column shortening is to conduct floor-by-floor analysis, generally known as construction sequence analysis. Commercial software ETABS is available for conducting sequential analysis. …

Study of Behavior of Buckling Restrained Bearing Frame Along with Soil Structure Interaction
Abstract: Lateral forces due to earthquake are the major consideration for design of earthquake resisting structures, these forces can be resisted by various systems like braced frames, shear walls, moment frames, etc. Energy dissipation is one of the most convenient option for earthquake resistance, as it can absorb input energy from earthquake protecting the main structure. Past research revealed that the Buckling Restrained Braces (BRB) are the best type of energy …

Enhancing Seismic Resilience of a Nine-Storey Composite Column Building Through Base Isolation Techniques: A Comparative Analysis
Abstract: Earthquakes pose significant threats to both human lives and structures, necessitating thorough dynamic analysis for earthquake-prone buildings. Such analyses are crucial for designing earthquakeresistant structures that can withstand seismic forces. One effective strategy employed to mitigate the destructive effects of earthquakes is the implementation of base isolation techniques. Base isolation involves the installation of isolators and energy-absorbing devices beneath the building's superstructure, aiming to provide structural safety and enhance the …

Analysis of Steel Chip Fiber Reinforced Composite Dual Pile Under Lateral Load Conditions on Sloping Terrain
Abstract: Pile foundations, in addition to supporting vertical loads from superstructures, are subjected to lateral stresses arising from seismic activities, wind gusts, water currents, and traffic impacts etc. Failure to account for these lateral forces can pose significant risks if the structure is expected to encounter any form of lateral pressure. Previous research has investigated the behavior of individual composite piles under horizontal forces, considering different soil properties, to determine the …

Water/Oil Cresting Optimization in Horizontal Wells: Experimental Study
Abstract: In recent years, the application of horizontal wells has been predominant and successful in minimizing cresting scenarios due to significant reservoir exposure of its laterals. Cresting is a natural phenomenon known to occur when an imbalance of viscous and gravitational forces exists in a reservoir. This study experimentally investigates the effect of varying the inclined section of the horizontal well using a simple, practical and inexpensive cresting optimization technique. The …
