Investigation of Seismic Pounding Effect on Symmetric 10 Storey Reinforced Concrete Buildings Using SAP2000
Abstract: ABSTRACT Earthquakes have historically been responsible for significant structural failures, often resulting in substantial economic losses and endangering human lives. One notable failure mechanism observed during seismic activity is seismic pounding, which occurs when adjacent buildings collide due to insufficient separation gaps. This phenomenon is particularly concerning in densely populated urban areas where space constraints often prevent the provision of adequate clearances between structures. Such impacts can lead to severe …

Study of Recyclable Thermoset Polymers Using Dynamic Covalent Bonds
Abstract: Thermoset polymers are widely used in advanced engineering applications due to their excellent mechanical strength, thermal resistance, and chemical stability. However, their permanent three-dimensional cross-linked networks make them traditionally non-recyclable, contributing significantly to polymer waste and environmental challenges. In recent years, dynamic covalent chemistry (DCC) has emerged as a transformative approach for designing recyclable thermoset materials by incorporating reversible and exchangeable bonds within their structure. This project focuses on the …
