        Expected extreme value of pounding force between two adjacent buildings

        Sepideh Rahimi,Masoud Soltani 국제구조공학회 2017 Structural Engineering and Mechanics, An Int'l Jou Vol.61 No.2

        Seismic pounding between adjacent buildings with inadequate separation and different dynamic characteristics can cause severe damage to the colliding buildings. Efficient estimation of the maximum pounding force is required to control the extent of damage in adjacent structures or develop an appropriate mitigation method. In this paper, an analytical approach on the basis of statistical relations is presented for approximate computation of extreme value of pounding force between two adjacent structures with equal or unequal heights subjected to stationary and non-stationary excitations. The nonlinearity of adjacent structures is considered using Bouc-Wen model of hysteresis and the pounding effect is simulated by applying the nonlinear viscoelastic model. It is shown that the proposed approach can significantly save computational costs by obviating the need for performing dynamic analysis. To assess the reliability and accuracy of the proposed approach, the results are compared with those obtained from nonlinear dynamic analysis.

      • Mechanical behavior of HPFRCC using limestone calcined clay cement (LC3) and oxygen plasma treated PP fibers

        Sajjad Mirzamohammadi,Masoud Soltani 국제구조공학회 2024 Structural Engineering and Mechanics, An Int'l Jou Vol.89 No.4

        High-performance fiber-reinforced cement composites (HPFRCC) are new materials created and used to repair, strengthen, and improve the performance of different structural parts. When exposed to tensile tension, these materials show acceptable strain-hardening. All of the countries of the globe currently seem to have a need for these building materials. This study aims to create a low-carbon HPFRCC (high ductility) that is made from materials that are readily available locally which has the right mechanical qualities, especially an increase in tensile strain capacity and environmental compatibility. In order to do this, the effects of fiber volume percent (0%, 0.5%, 1%, and 2%), and determining the appropriate level, filler type (limestone powder and silica sand), cement type (ordinary Portland cement, and limestone calcined clay cement or LC3), matrix hardness, and fiber type (ordinary and oxygen plasma treated polypropylene fiber) were explored. Fibers were subjected to oxygen plasma treatment at several powers and periods (50 W and 200 W, 30, 120, and 300 seconds). The influence of the above listed factors on the samples’ three-point bending and direct tensile strength test results has been examined. The results showed that replacing ordinary Portland cement (OPC) with limestone calcined clay cement (LC3) in mixtures reduces the compressive strength, and increases the tensile strain capacity of the samples. Furthermore, using oxygen plasma treatment method (power 200 W and time 300 seconds) enhances the bonding of fibers with the matrix surface; thus, the tensile strain capacity of samples increased on average up to 70%.

        In-depth computational analysis of calcium-dependent protein kinase 3 of Toxoplasma gondii provides promising targets for vaccination

        Hamidreza Majidiani,Shahrzad Soltani,Ali Dalir Ghaffari,Mohamad Sabaghan,Ali Taghipour,Masoud Foroutan 대한백신학회 2020 Clinical and Experimental Vaccine Research Vol.9 No.2

        Purpose: The Toxoplasma gondii calcium-dependent protein kinase-3 (CDPK3) is a key enzyme for parasite egress, control of calcium-dependent permeabilization in parasitophorous vacuole membrane and tissue cyst formation. In this study, we comprehensively explored the bioinformatics features of this protein to improve vaccine design against T. gondii. Materials and Methods: Various web servers were employed for the analysis of physico-chemical properties, post-translational modifications, localization in the subcellular milieu, secondary and tertiary structures, as well as B-cell, major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-binding and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) epitopes. Results: This protein was a 537 amino acid antigenic and non-allergenic molecule with a molecular weight of 60.42 kDa, a grand average of hydropathicity score of -0.508, and aliphatic index of 79.50. There exists 46.74% alpha helix, 12.48% extended strand, and 40.78% random coil in the secondary structure. Ramachandran plot of the refined model demonstrated 99.3%, 0.7%, and 0.0% of residues in the favored, allowed and outlier areas, respectively. Besides, various potential B-cell (continuous and conformational), MHC-binding and CTL epitopes were predicted for Toxoplasma CDPK3 protein. Conclusion: This article provides a foundation for further investigations, and laid a theoretical basis for the development of an appropriate vaccine against T. gondii infection.

        A laboratory and numerical study on the effect of geogrid-box method on bearing capacity of rock-soil slopes

        Moradi, Gholam,Abdolmaleki, Arvin,Soltani, Parham,Ahmadvand, Masoud Techno-Press 2018 Geomechanics & engineering Vol.14 No.4

        Currently, layered geogrid method (LGM) is the commonly practiced technique for reinforcement of slopes. In this paper the geogrid-box method (GBM) is introduced as a new approach for reinforcement of rock-soil slopes. To achieve the objectives of this study, a laboratory setup was designed and the slopes without reinforcements and reinforced with LGM and GBM were tested under the loading of a circular footing. The effect of vertical spacing between geogrid layers and box thickness on normalized bearing capacity and failure mechanism of slopes was investigated. A series of 3D finite element analysis were also performed using ABAQUS software to supplement the results of the model tests. The results indicated that the load-settlement behavior and the ultimate bearing capacity of footing can be significantly improved by the inclusion of reinforcing geogrid in the soil. It was found that for the slopes reinforced with GBM, the displacement contours are widely distributed in the rock-soil mass underneath the footing in greater width and depth than that in the reinforced slope with LGM, which in turn results in higher bearing capacity. It was also established that by reducing the thickness of geogrid-boxes, the distribution and depth of displacement contours increases and a longer failure surface is developed, which suggests the enhanced bearing capacity of the slope. Based on the studied designs, the ultimate bearing capacity of the GBM-reinforced slope was found to be 11.16% higher than that of the slope reinforced with LGM. The results also indicated that, reinforcement of rock-soil slopes using GBM causes an improvement in the ultimate bearing capacity as high as 24.8 times more than that of the unreinforced slope.
