...Adel Younis; Onur Avci; Mohammed Hussein; Brad Davis; Paul Reynolds With the use of lighter construction materials, more slender architectural designs, and open floor plans resulting in low damping, vibration serviceability has become a dominant design criterion for structural engineers worldwide...

... physics driving ventilation and its impact upon the hydrodynamic and structural response, and (2) discuss the scaling relations and its implications on the design and interpretation of reduced-scale studies. Natural ventilation occurs when the flow around a body forms a cavity that is open to the free...

...Suvonkar Chakroborty; Rana Roy In view of the stronger vulnerability of horizontally irregular structures during earthquakes, numerous studies have been made since mid-1950 s. Unfortunately, research progress in this subject does not appear encouraging. This is evident from the current wisdom...

... paper aims to reveal the latest evaluation done in the area of bubble-induced vibration and to ascertain the contributions made until now as well as the solution to the upcoming issues. In several industrial applications, for example, engineering structure, power transmission, bridge piers, etc...
