  1. Automation lowers rents and widens inequality less within groups
    Automation targets high-wage jobs, dissipates worker rents, and offsets productivity gains. Analysis of U.S. data shows automation explains half of wage inequality growth since 1980.
  2. Validated single-strut model captures infilled RC frame seismic behavior
    Advanced single-strut modeling framework for masonry-infilled RC frames with lightweight infills. Validates material-specific nonlinear hinges for seismic performance assessment with 10% accuracy.
  3. Freeze–thaw cycling changes concrete–soil interface shear behavior
    Study investigates interfacial shear behavior between concrete and crushed rock-soil under freeze-thaw cycling, developing an improved constitutive model for permafrost infrastructure durability.
  4. Structural Optimization and Energy Absorption Characteristics of Double-Layer Variable-Diameter Energy-Absorbing Components for Anti-Impact Brackets
    Research on double-layer variable-diameter energy-absorbing components for hydraulic supports demonstrates 54.2% increased energy absorption through optimized corrugated-circular tube configuration.
  5. Energy absorption mechanism of aluminum foam sandwich structure against bird impact and its application in impact protection bulkhead inside airplane nose
    Aluminum foam sandwich structure with asymmetric panels achieves 30% weight reduction in aircraft nose bulkhead while maintaining bird strike resistance through dual energy absorption mechanisms.
