Uncertainties in codal recommendations for across-wind load analysis of R/C chimneys
Devdas Menon,P.Srinivasa Rao +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the prevailing international codal procedures to evaluate the across-wind response of R/C chimneys and examined the disparities in the codal estimates of across wind moments as well as the load factor specifications from a reliability viewpoint.

Calibration of a hysteretic model for glass fiber reinforced gypsum wall panels
Abstract: Glass fiber reinforced gypsum (GFRG) wall panels are prefabricated panels with hollow cores, originally developed in Australia and subsequently adopted by India and China for use in buildings. This paper discusses identification and calibration of a suitable hysteretic model for GFRG wall panels filled with reinforced concrete. As considerable pinching was observed in the experimental results, a suitable hysteretic model with pinched hysteretic rule is used to conduct a series of quasi-static as inelastic hysteretic response analyses of GFRG panels with two different widths. The calibration of the pinching model parameters was carried out to approximately match the simulated and experimental responses up to 80% of the peak load in the post peak region. Interestingly, the same values of various parameters (energy dissipation and pinching related parameters) were obtained for all five test specimens.

Modelling and analysis of South Indian temple structures under earthquake loading
TL;DR: In this paper, a probabilistic seismic hazard analysis of the archaeological site of Kancheepuram, South India, is presented, where the seismic input is based on the seismic hazard assessment of a typical 9-tier gopuram and a 16-pillared mandapam.
