El-Ghazaly, Hany Ahmed, et Heyad Saud Al-Zamel. « An innovative detail for precast concrete beam–column moment connections ». Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering 18, no 4 (1 août 1991) : 690–710. http://dx.doi.org/10.1139/l91-084.
Texte intégralRésumé :
A new detail is introduced for precast concrete beam-to-column moment connections. The detail consists of a connecting steel frame used to mechanically connect the threaded end protruding reinforcing bars from beam and column. The connection detail is made convenient to assemble where the erection method resembles that of steel construction. No idle crane time is necessary, since the connecting steel frame is designed to carry the beam's own weight. When the connection construction is completed, the joint functions as a moment resisting hard connection. The experimental testing program involved testing of twelve full-scale specimens in addition to a pilot test. Of the twelve tests seven are flexural tests, three are shear tests, and two are monolithic flexural tests for comparison. Modes of failure in the flexural tests were mainly due to rupture of tension reinforcement; however, premature slippage of the rebars may occur under certain conditions, but could be conveniently prevented. In the shear tests, diagonal tension crack failure predominated. If the connection parameters are properly selected, the connection will be capable of developing the beam's full plastic moment and undergo sufficient rotation before collapse. Key words: precast concrete, moment connections, connecting steel frame, stiffness, strength, ductility.

Texte intégralRésumé :
This research work presents new details for moment connections in precast concrete structures satisfying both design and practice criteria. In this paper the results of the numerical study on the connections are presented. For the analysis, the ANSYS software is selected because of its diversity in nonlinear analysis. By calculating the monotonic load-displacement curve of each connection, the connections are evaluated for their stiffness, strength, and ductility.
The compressive strength of the connection concrete is taken to be 30, 35 and 40 MPa, for each round of analysis. The results of the analysis show that the proposed connections are stiff enough to be moment resisting and to be emulating an equivalent monolithic, or basic connection. It is illustrated that the connections are stronger but somewhat less ductile than the basic connection regardless of the concrete strengths examined. Moreover, it is shown that in each precast connection while increasing the compressive strength of concrete does not affect the connection stiffness considerably, it increases the ultimate load and ductility of the connection. As a main result of this study, the suggested connection details are categorized based on their stiffness, strength, and ductility. The suggested connections can be used in moment resisting precast concrete buildings based on the desired strength and ductility.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Zusammenfassung Entrepreneure sind die Innovatoren eines Unternehmens. Entsprechend kommt dem Verständnis der Mechanismen hinter innovativem Arbeitsverhalten der Unternehmer eine große Bedeutung zu. Auf Ebene des Entrepreneurs können hier neben kognitiven Einflüssen vor allem Persönlichkeitseigenschaften identifiziert werden. In dieser Studie werden die Zusammenhänge innovativen Arbeitsverhaltens als personale Voraussetzung innovativer Unternehmensführung zur Dunklen Triade der Persönlichkeit (Narzissmus, Machiavellismus, Psychopathie) und psychischer Widerstandsfähigkeit (Resilienz) untersucht und damit ein Beitrag zum Verständnis dunkler wie heller Seiten des Unternehmerprofils geleistet. Auf Basis einer Stichprobe von 78 Unternehmern wurde Resilienz als signifikanter Prädiktor innovativen Arbeitsverhaltens identifiziert. Darüber hinaus konnte Resilienz als Mediator-Variable bestätigt werden, die den indirekten Einfluss von Narzissmus bzw. Psychopathie auf das innovative Arbeitsverhalten des Unternehmers erklärt. Für Machiavellismus wurde weder ein direkter noch indirekter Effekt auf innovatives Arbeitsverhalten gefunden. Höhere Werte in der Dunklen Triade (insb. Narzissmus und Psychopathie) helfen folglich dem Entrepreneur, auch in unsicheren Umwelten selbstbewusst nach neuartigen Lösungen zu suchen und so das Wachstum seines Unternehmens zu fördern. Abstract Entrepreneurs are the innovators of a company. Accordingly, understanding the mechanisms behind innovative work behavior of entrepreneurs is of great importance. At the level of the entrepreneur, personality traits can be identified as significant predictors in addition to cognitive influences. This study examines the connections between innovative work behavior as a personal prerequisite for innovative work behavior and the Dark Triad of personality (narcissism, Machiavellianism, psychopathy) and psychological resilience, thus contributing to the understanding of both the dark and bright sides of the entrepreneurial profile. Based on a sample of 78 entrepreneurs, resilience was identified as a significant predictor of innovative work behavior. Furthermore, resilience was confirmed as a mediator variable that explains the indirect influence of narcissism or psychopathy on the innovative work behavior of the entrepreneur. No direct or indirect effect on innovative work behavior was found for Machiavellianism. Higher values in the Dark Triad (especially narcissism and psychopathy) therefore help the entrepreneur to confidently search for new solutions even in uncertain environments and thus promote the growth of his company.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Based on the data of the Growth Enterprise Market (GEM)-listed companies in the Shenzhen Stock Exchange of China, this paper researched the influence mechanism of political connections on enterprise innovation intention. This paper is based on the theory of reciprocal exchange of social capital. The research found that the entrepreneur’s political connections are detrimental to the improvement of enterprise innovation intention, and the differentiation strategy has a mediation effect between them. Moreover, the market competition intensity of enterprise production adjusts the influence of the differentiation strategy on enterprise innovation intention, and it can alleviate the negative influence of the political connection on the innovation intention through the differentiation strategy. Although the country’s innovation-driven strategy will provide more innovative resources for enterprises, securing the survival and development of an enterprise is becoming increasingly narrower by relying solely on establishing connections with the government.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Based on various data of the private listed companies in China, this paper stuides the impact of political connections on corporate innovation capabilities. Political connection can improve corporate value, bring financing convenience, tax benefits as well as government subsidy to affiliated enterprises. On the other hand, political connection helps affiliated enterprises enter the monopoly industries, which weakens their willingness to engage in innovative activities. The empirical studies reveal that political connection has a negative innovation effect, due to it raises the entry level of entering barrier industry in affiliated enterprises.

Texte intégralRésumé :
When developing innovative structural systems, designers are faced with a difficult problem when addressing connection design. While the provisions for the design of members and their failure modes are well understood and codified, the design and performance of the connections are not. Current specifications require designers to provide evidence, through either experiments or analysis and combinations thereof, that these connections will perform as intended. In this paper, the design of an innovative type of connection to concrete-filled tube columns is described. These connection are partially-restrained, contain a new type of material (shape memory alloys), and are geared for high seismic loads making their design a very challenging proposition without the aid of physical testing. The design is developed based on detailed finite element analyses of the connection region and elements which lead to simplified spring models suitable for design of entire frames. The results indicate that through careful and rigorous analyses, robust simplified connection models can be developed even for complex connections.

Texte intégralRésumé :
An unintended consequence is that some freedom in the introduction of innovative composite connections has been removed. The innovative aspects of this connection are in the use of partial restraint connections between steel beams and concrete-filled tube columns that utilize a combination of low-carbon steel and shape memory alloy components. A refined finite element model with sophisticated three dimensional solid elements was developed to conduct numerical experiments on the proposed joints to obtain the global behavior of the connection and develop simplified models. The paper argues that careful analytical studies can replace the requirement for physical testing present in current steel codes.

Texte intégralRésumé :
This paper investigates the tensile behaviour of prefabricated concrete-filled steel tube (PCFST) columns with bolted connections. Innovative bolted column-column (BCC) connections are developed using standard structural bolts to simplify the construction process for the connection of two PCFST columns, especially for the corner, edge, and interior columns. The behaviour of BCC connections in PCFST columns under tension has been investigated, adopting the finite element (FE) modelling approach. Parametric studies are carried out to understand the influence of bolt arrangements (TB = 4, 6, 7, 8), base plate thickness (tbp = 8, 10, 14, and 18 mm), bolt diameters (db = 16, 18, 20, 24 mm), vertical stiffeners (ths = 4, 6, 8, 10 mm), horizontal stiffeners (ths = 10, 12, 13, 15 mm), and yield strength of steel tube (fy,t = 380, 450, and 550 MPa) on the behaviour of PCFST columns with developed BCC connections. The results show that the PCFST columns with the developed BCC connections can attain sufficient tensile strength and satisfy the tensile strength requirements recommended in AS5100 and the robustness requirements in AS1170. The outcome of this paper will be useful to practising structural engineers to design prefabricated CFST columns with BCC connections under tension.

Texte intégralRésumé :
AbstractWe present evidence suggesting that chief executive officer (CEO) connections facilitate investments in corporate innovation. We find that firms with better-connected CEOs invest more in research and development and receive more and higher quality patents. Further tests suggest that this effect stems from two characteristics of personal networks that alleviate CEO risk aversion in investment decisions. First, personal connections increase the CEO’s access to relevant network information, which encourages innovation by helping to identify, evaluate, and exploit innovative ideas. Second, personal connections provide the CEO with labor market insurance that facilitates investments in risky innovation by mitigating the career concerns inherent in such investments.

Texte intégralRésumé :
An innovative dissipative (INERD Pin) connection system, which was previously developed for seismic resistant X-braced steel frames, was applied to retrofit existing precast industrial buildings designed only for gravity loads. Nonlinear dynamic analyses were carried out and the effectiveness of the dissipative connection system was evaluated. The INERD Pin connection system increased both the deformation capacity and the stiffness of the buildings, reducing damage of the structural elements. In case of low seismic actions, the INERD Pin connection system especially enhanced the stiffness of the structure, causing only small reductions of column rotations and top displacements. In case of severe seismic actions, the addition of the dissipative connections showed all its effectiveness particularly for low rotation capacity at column base, increasing the energy dissipation capacity and reducing the displacements of the structure. The results of the numerical investigations demonstrated the possibility to reduce the seismic vulnerability of existing precast buildings by means of dissipative connection systems.

Texte intégralRésumé :
This paper is the first to empirically investigate the connections between the Big Five personality factors, ambidextrous team leadership, organisational climate of US workers that supports innovation, and individual innovative work behaviour. A self-report survey was used to obtain data from 215 team members in US-based corporations. We provide an empirically tested model of the positive influence of Openness to Experiences, Extraversion and Conscientiousness personality traits on individual innovative work behaviour. Results also confirm that supervisors’ leadership behaviours and a supportive organisational climate of innovation have a moderating influence on this set of relationships. Individuals can develop their individual innovative work behaviour. Supervisors can adopt higher levels of opening behaviours and executives can create a climate supportive of innovation to boost individual innovative work behaviour. This study further demonstrates that Big Five personality traits interact with supervisor behaviours and a supportive climate to foster individual innovative work behaviour.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Imperatives to connect the worlds of home and school, evident in global policies of family engagement and partnership initiatives between teachers and parents to support children’s education are viewed as key dimensions of academic success. However, developing ways to meaningfully connect and engage teachers, parents and students in learning ecologies remains elusive, contested and increasingly complex in the digital age. Teachers are encouraged to draw on their students’ digital ‘funds of knowledge’ to create innovative learning opportunities and develop capacities for creativity and critical thinking. Despite significant research into creativity pedagogies and the inclusion of parents in policy documents urging for increased innovation in schooling, which often implies the use of digital technologies, parents are largely invisible in research into creative pedagogies. The data explored in this article are drawn from a larger project which adopted a teacher-as-inquirer approach to investigate teacher, student and parent experiences and understandings of innovative teaching designed to integrate creative and critical thinking with digital literacy practices. The analysis mobilises the key features of creative and innovative learning environments identified in the research literature to explore teachers’ initiatives to develop reflexive and innovative pedagogies and foregrounds the ways in which incorporation of digital media impacted on parental engagement in their children’s learning. Findings highlight significant challenges for schools and teachers to meaningfully and sustainably connect home and school learning which positions children, teachers and parents as agentic and creative.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Background: The deformation capacity of beam-to-column connections strongly influences the robustness of earthquake-resistant Moment Resistant Frames (MRFs) when subjected to a loss-of column scenario. As a consequence, with the aim of foresee the structural response up to the failure, an accurate modelling of the ultimate behaviour of the joints is needed. Objective: In this paper, the influence of the connections on the behaviour of MRFs under a loss-of-column scenario has been analysed considering an accurate modelling of the joints. Method: In addition, in order to achieve this goal, different beam-to-column joints designed for seismic actions and tested at the Salerno University, have been modelled and introduced in a case-study structure, whose response has been evaluated by means of push-down analyses. In particular, the connections analysed and modelled are of three different types: a dog-bone connection, a partial strength Double Split Tee (DST) joint and a partial strength connection with friction dampers. Results / Conclusion: The results of pushdown analyses performed by means of SAP2000 computer software have been examined with the aim to determine the Residual Reserve Strength Ratio (RRSR) index that, combined with the energy balance method proposed by Izzudin et al. (2008), allow to assess the structural ro-bustness.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Based on socioeconomic statistical data, transport data, and network big data, the urban connection index (UCI) was constructed in terms of industry, transportation, information, and innovation, and the high-quality development index (HDI) was established from five aspects: innovation, coordination, green development, openness, and sharing. Taking Lanzhou-Xining urban agglomeration as a case, the urban connection intensity and high-quality development level were measured to analyze the relationship between them. From 2012 to 2018, the UCI and HDI of each city showed different degrees of growth. Note that there exist significant regional differences, with Lanzhou and Xining having the largest difference. The biggest gap among cities lies in the innovative connection intensity. Moreover, urban external connections are closely related to high-quality development, especially innovation and green development. For every 1% increase in industrial and transport connection, the HDI will increase by 0.317% and 0.159%, respectively. This study provides a methodological reference for measuring urban connectivity and provides decision support for high-quality development in China and other countries.

The paper presents Axis Strutture, patented by the authors, awarded with V:alere funds (VAnvitelli pER la ricErca 2020) for the establishment of an innovative start-up, now academic spin-off. It is based on the assemble of iron and wood with 'pins' (in Latin 'axis') threaded to ensure an economic profit in line with the Sustainable Development Goals, reviewing ancient technologies in the light of advanced research. The focus is on the structural connections of a construction system that clamps the steel frame elements with the wooden infill, allowing to assemble modular, prefabricated and flexible components customized on the design phase’s request. It provides effective emergency shelters assembled or dismantled as quickly as tents but more stable, healthier and comfortable. With a single star key, the steel uprights can be attested with wooden and similar tampons avoiding nails and screws which allows the total reuse of the components. The patented connections implement a new construction method promoting the self-construction of garden houses, leisure environments, bungalows, garages and quality housing modules, since they are resilient, resistant and with a controllable impact on the environment. The case study provides an opportunity to verify actions aimed at the implementation of Design for Adaptability strategies promoting virtuous life cycles that involves the entire community in sustainable models from an economic, environmental and social point of view.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Owing to the desirable bond strength and excellent workability, spiral hoop and bolted steel connectors are introduced to enhance the connecting performance of superimposed reinforced concrete shear wall (SRCSW) system. In order to investigate the seismic performance of SRCSWs, applying such connecting methods under flexure-shear interaction and flexural dominated status, two groups of precast (PC) specimens were constructed: one-story and two-story specimens. Seismic behavior in terms of crack patterns, load-displacement response, ductility, stiffness degradation, strain response, and deformation results of SRCSWs is evaluated by the quasistatic cyclic test. It is shown that the wall specimens with the proposed connectors exhibited similar failure mode to that of the cast-in-place (CIP) walls and possessed adequate seismic performance such as lateral resistance, ultimate drift ratio, and lateral stiffness besides the ease of erection. The strain responses and deformation results of the PC specimens under reversed cyclic loading were presented to evaluate the effectiveness of the introduced connections. The test results indicated that the PC walls adopting bolted steel connectors behaved better in force transmission and exhibited greater integrity characteristic compared with the specimens having spiral hoop connectors. Lastly, simplified finite element models considering the nonlinear slip behavior within the connection joint of SRCSWs were established and verified, which could provide sufficient accuracy and efficiency to predict the seismic response of the proposed wall system.

Texte intégralRésumé :
This study deals with partial cylindrical truss walls equipped with damper connections due to horizontal earthquake motions. The damper connection consists of an aluminum ball joint, an aluminum hub, and a steel bolt. A ductile elongation of the steel bolt due to a tensile stress is expected by avoiding the brittle collapse. The study proposes a fuse-type connection by means of yield of the steel bolt due to tension stress realized by the ductile failure collapse mechanism of the wall-type spatial structure. The proposed truss wall with the fuse-type connection can realize a deformation of nodes within the restriction for avoiding a nonstructural member damage. It is confirmed in the dynamic elastoplastic analysis that the control of the dynamic collapse mechanism such as the steel bolt elongation can avoid a brittle collapse mechanism such as a chain of member buckling. The evaluation method is also proposed by means of the limit displacement considering a ductility factor of the steel bolt within 2.0.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The article considers the problems of introduction and use of interdisciplinary approach in the formation of innovative and entrepreneurial universities of the third generation. Interdisciplinary connections, which provide an interdisciplinary approach in the field of education, scientific base, as well as the system of education as a complex of fundamental and taxonomic disciplines are studied in the article. The use of an interdisciplinary approach in the training of future professionals is seen as part of the process of forming their professional competence through the implementation of links with the disciplines of humanities, socio-economic and scientific training. In a competency-based approach, interdisciplinary connections allow knowledge, skills and abilities to be transferred from one area of science and professional activity to another. The interdisciplinary approach is aimed at the connection of disciplines, when the contradictions in the mastery of ideas, methods and techniques of research between sciences are smoothed out and there is a complex use in professional activity of theory and practice obtained on the basis of studied disciplines. Both significant advantages and problems that arise when using an interdisciplinary approach are considered. It is proved that the demand for specialists with universal skills and abilities, formed under the influence of the study and interconnection of disciplines of different fields, is relevant. The necessity of strengthening the role of the interdisciplinary approach in the formation of "third generation" universities as innovative forms of entrepreneurial activity is substantiated. Key words: interdisciplinary approach, competence, integration, innovation, information technology revolution, entrepreneurship.

International Journal of Structural Stability and Dynamics 20, no 06 (juin 2020) : 2040005. http://dx.doi.org/10.1142/s0219455420400052.
Texte intégralRésumé :
This paper presents an investigation on the seismic behavior of steel moment frames with mechanical hinge beam-to-column connections. The connection uses a mechanical hinge to carry shear force and a pair of buckling-restrained steel plates bolted to the beam flange to transfer bending moment. The moment-rotation behavior of the connection was theoretically studied. A nonlinear numerical model for steel moment frames under strong earthquakes was developed and validated using a shaking table test of an 18-story steel moment frame at the E-Defense facility. Then, nonlinear static and time-history analyses were conducted to compare the seismic behavior of a conventional steel moment frame and three innovative steel frames equipped mechanical hinge connections in terms of roof displacement, base shear, inter-story drift ratio, and plastic hinge rotation.

Texte intégralRésumé :
As a sustainable alternative to steel and concrete, cross laminated timber (CLT) shear wall systems are getting increasingly popular in mid-rise and high-rise construction, and that imposes new challenges on their seismic performance. The conventional connections used in this system, such as steel hold-downs and angle brackets, are, however, susceptible to brittle failures, thus being inappropriate for use in structures in seismic regions. A series of innovative connections have therefore been proposed in recent years for achieving better seismic behaviours in CLT structures, characterised by an adequate capacity, significantly improved ductility and dissipative capacity, as well as more controllable ductile failure modes. This paper first reviews the recent studies of CLT shear wall systems and conventional connections. Connection systems and shear wall reinforcement methods that have been recently proposed for seismic resilient CLT structures are then introduced, with their design strategies being summarised accordingly. The connections are then discussed comprehensively in terms of structural performance, manufacturability and constructability, employing similar criteria that have previously been proposed for steel modular connections. It is found that much improved ductility along with more predictable, ductile, timber damage-free deformation modes are achieved in most of the new connections. Some new connectors are designed with additional functionalities for optimised seismic performance or for easing the construction process, which, however, lead to complex designs that may add difficulties to the mass production. Therefore, comprehensive considerations are needed in connection design, and the discussion of this paper aims to assist in the future development of connection systems for seismic resilient multi-storey CLT buildings.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Pseudo-static tests of a novel energy-dissipation connection, comprised of a hinge and two steel brackets, have proven their reliability and superior energy-dissipation capability. To verify the effectiveness of the connection further, a full-scale one-story one-bay engineered bamboo-steel hybrid frame jointed with the novel energy-dissipation connections was investigated through experimental test and finite element analysis (FEA) in this paper. The experimental results showed that the failure mode of the frame was restricted in the local buckling of the energy-dissipation panels (EDPs) in the innovative connections, whereas no obvious damage was observed in the other components of the frame. The hysteresis loops of the frame with energy dissipation connections revealed less pinching. Thus, the ductility and damping ratio of the engineered bamboo-steel frame can reach 1.46 and 14.1%, respectively. Based on the analysis of effectual simulation models in ABAQUS software, the relationship between the initial stiffness, the peak load, the ductility ratio of the hybrid frame and the size of EDP was studied. Recommendations are made for the design of the EDPs.

Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering 18, no 15 (7 octobre 2020) : 6849–82. http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10518-020-00962-5.
Texte intégralRésumé :
Abstract The interaction between cladding panels and the main structure is a crucial point to assess the seismic response, and above all the structural safety, of RC precast industrial building. In the past, connections were often designed to allow construction tolerances and to accommodate both thermal and wind-induced displacements. The lack of specific details to allow relative in-plane displacements between cladding panels and the main structure often led to the participation of cladding panels in the structure seismic-resistant system with consequent connection failures. In the last decades, a lot of experimental tests were performed to investigate the in-plane performance of panel connections, and some design recommendations have been developed accordingly. In the out-of-plane direction, the connections were often considered to be infinitely rigid and not to suffer any damage by the seismic load. This work deals with the out-of-plane response of panel-to-structure connections for vertical panels typical of industrial and commercial precast buildings. Both standard hammer-head strap and new devices, called SismoSafe, were investigated. Tests were performed in the Structures and Materials Testing Laboratory of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering of Florence, where a specific setup was designed to perform cyclic and monotonic tests on the connection devices. Standard connections showed a rather limited resistance, while the innovative connections exhibited a high out-of-plane resistance. Numerical analyses were also performed on a case study building to evaluate the distribution of the out-of-plane demand on the connections.

Texte intégralRésumé :
While humour is present in everyday business in practice, its strategic meaning and effectiveness are rarely investigated in relation to innovation processes or their management. In this study, we suggest that different types of humour can have both positive and negative effects on innovative work behaviour and the innovation output of individuals, and that the nature of the effects depends to an extent on whether these types of humour are present in interaction within or across organisational boundaries. Theoretical discussion and empirical evidence derived from a quantitative analysis illustrate the diversity of relationships. The results indicate that while humour is, in general, more relevant for innovation within organizations, it also bears importance with regard to external relationships, especially considering innovative work behaviour. Likewise, generally speaking, aggressive humour has negative connotations while, affiliative, coping, and reframing types of humour are associated with positive undertones. However, these connections are not self-evident. Acknowledging differences helps managers to monitor and encourage the use of humour in varying forms of interaction within and beyond their organisations for creating supportive conditions for innovation.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Capital structure determines a company’s growth prospects by affecting its investment activity. The article examines what type of capital, foreign or state-owned, stimulates a company’s innovative activity as measured by its number of patent applications. The study was carried out using data from 238 public Russian companies in the period 2012–2020. The results of the study show that state and foreign investors influence innovation to different degrees: state capital positively affects the number of patent applications filed, while foreign capital does not. The impact of political connections and board structure on research and development was investigated. The political ties of the CEOs and the board chairs are expressed by the experience of working in the public service. The presence of such experience in the company’s management increases the company’s innovation activity. However, political connections are effective only in companies with state capital, or in specific industries. The company’s state capital and political connections have a positive impact on the number of patent applications filed in the energy and industrial sectors. The presence of political ties has a positive impact on the role of foreign capital in innovation. The share of foreign directors has a positive effect on patents. Also, the presence of patents from previous years, as well as the age and size of the company, affects the receipt of patents in the future. The younger and larger the company, the more patent applications there will be.

Texte intégralRésumé :
In the last few decades, increasing efforts have been devoted to the development of beam-to-column connections able to accommodate the local ductility demand dissipating, contemporaneously, the seismic input energy. Among the typologies proposed, the so-called RBS (Reduced Beam Section) has gained wide acceptance in the construction market, leading to easy-to-construct and cost-effective solutions. As an alternative, new proposals based on the inclusion of friction devices in beam-to-column joints have recently been made. Such a practice has the merit, in case of destructive events, of exhibiting wide and stable hysteretic cycles concentrating damage in elements that undergo only minor yielding. Both RBS and friction joints have been widely studied, carrying out experimental tests on sub-assemblies investigating their cyclic rotational response. Nevertheless, the available experimental results on full-scale structures equipped with these connections are still quite limited. This is the reason why two experimental campaigns aimed at performing pseudo-dynamic testing of a full-scale two-storey steel building equipped with RBS and friction connections have been planned at the STRENGTH (STRuctural ENGineering Test Hall) Laboratory of the University of Salerno. The first experimental campaign with the structure equipped with RBSs has already been performed; the connections showed higher resistance than expected, and exhibited brittle fracture due to cyclic fatigue. The second campaign has not yet been carried out, but in this paper the blind analysis of the supposed behavior is reported. It is expected that the friction joints allow to dissipate the seismic input energy without any structural damage in the members, but only through the friction pads of the devices, which can be easily replaced at the end of a severe seismic event.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The importance of connections in steel structures is paramount, not only because it greatly influences the cost of construction and provides room for innovations, but also due to the connections’ impact on global structural behaviour. Therefore, research into innovative connections for seismic applications and related design criteria has significantly grown in recent years. However, it has been pursued mostly on local—connection or frame—levels, leaving the system analysis and code compliance levels with a meagre investigation. Moreover, less than 1% of published papers concerning steel connections and earthquake engineering are review articles. To overcome this gap, this systematic review of more than 240 references, including scientific contributions and design codes in the field aimed to cover both recent research and current shortcomings in practice and regulations. It has been found that European design rules updated to a fully performance-based design philosophy is imminent and is deemed to bring pre-qualified joints and increased complexity. Design rules have been systematized, and current hindrances have been highlighted. A deeper look into research needs and trends showed that investigations in connections for concentrically X braced frames are still a necessity, while developments in self-centring and replaceable connections as well as in simple solutions for increasing damping are expected to modify how joints are designed, as soon as semi-rigid and partial strength connections are more easily allowed by design codes.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Abstract PolyUrethane Flexible Joints (PUFJ) as an innovative adhesive system has been developed by a team of researchers from the Cracow University of Technology (CUT) for several years. Initially, the research focused mainly on joining masonry and reinforced concrete elements. Due to environmental concerns and climate changes, further advancement of the PUFJ system was focused on the technology development based on connecting natural materials such as wood and wood-based materials. In 2019, the cooperation of the CUT with a private company resulted in the implementation of the PUFJ system for the construction of innovative connections in a prefabricated timber frame construction of a family house near Cracow. Currently, further research are carried out focused on the complex understanding of behaviour of adhesive bond used in structural and non-structural timber bonding, taking into account different species of wood (pine, spruce, beech, douglas fir) and a different thickness of the flexible adhesive layer (from 1 mm to 30 mm). The article contains the properties of the PUFJ system, describes variants of the available applications (wet application in form of liquid substance curing in time or dry application as a prefabricated bonding layers glued to the elements with a thin adhesive layer). Examples of double-lap shear connections and laminated beams made of douglas fir wood of C24 class and Sika®PS polyurethane flexible layer are presented. All specimens were constructed with three various flexible adhesive thicknesses of 1, 2 and 4 mm. The influence of elevated temperature on the load capacity of the connection and on the final deflection was tested. The tests were conducted at four temperature levels (20, 40, 60 and 80°C).

Texte intégralRésumé :
AbstractIn cross-laminated timber (CLT) buildings, in order to reduce the disturbing transmission of sound over the flanking parts, special insulation layers are used between the CLT walls and slabs, together with insulated angle-bracket connections. However, the influence of such CLT connections and insulation layers on the seismic resistance of CLT structures has not yet been studied. In this paper, experimental investigation on CLT panels installed on insulation bedding and fastened to the CLT floor using an innovative, insulated, steel angle bracket, are presented. The novelty of the investigated angle-bracket connection is, in addition to the sound insulation, its resistance to both shear as well as uplift forces as it is intended to be used instead of traditional angle brackets and hold-down connections to simplify the construction. Therefore, monotonic and cyclic tests on the CLT wall-to-floor connections were performed in shear and tensile/compressive load direction. Specimens with and without insulation under the angle bracket and between the CLT panels were studied and compared. Tests of insulated specimens have proved that the insulation has a marginal influence on the load-bearing capacity; however, it significantly influences the stiffness characteristics. In general, the experiments have shown that the connection could also be used for seismic resistant CLT structures, although some minor improvements should be made.

Texte intégralRésumé :
In the face of the reality that unexpectedly mobilized the governments of most central European countries (including Poland), the development of renewable energy sources (RES) seems to be an important direction. Therefore, both wind parks and solar farms will be constructed at double speed for energetic independence. This urgency makes the market of producers of structures for mounting solar panels also need to adapt quickly to the new situation. New constructions adapted to quick assembly with the use of nutless screw connections seem to be one of the best solutions. These structures must not only be easy and quick to install but also durable, which makes the connections resistant to cyclical loads. The speed of assembly of the substructure can be achieved precisely with the help of nutless connections, but their durability should be carefully analyzed. This article presents parametric analyses of the numerical model of this type of connection. The selection of appropriate numerical models for simulation is of key importance in the fatigue strength analysis of bolted connections. This article investigates two different models used in numerical fatigue analyses performed in the Abaqus FEA and FE-Safe program, namely, traditional bolt with nut and innovative self-tapping nutless bolt. Extended parametric analyses of both numerical models were carried out, which ultimately allowed optimization of the fatigue capacity of the connection.

Abstract This brief article illustrates the features of ScriptNet, a software package that facilitates a visual analysis of the organisational aspects of criminal enterprise, together with a visual analysis of the network of people, organisations, places and resources that are in some way involved in the commissioning of these goal-oriented crimes. ScriptNet is an amalgamation of the terms ‘script’ and ‘network’ that in turn represent two analytical approaches to understanding criminal and social behaviours. Script refers to crime script analysis, an analytical technique that organises knowledge about the procedural aspects and procedural requirements of the crime commission process. Network derives from social network analysis, and specifically from the framework of multi-mode and multi-link networks, which maps individual and collective actors, together with resources they can access and places where they are located, and the various types of relationships that may link them. In this article we illustrate the functions and features of ScriptNet using data provided by the Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI). We discuss the innovative aspects of ScriptNet and we identify its limits. In its current format, ScriptNet has been developed as proof of concept. The code is open source, and we welcome people to collaborate and implement new and improved functions.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The author seeks to contribute to the debate on embeddedness, milieu, and innovation in industrial districts through a case study of high-technology firms in Richardson, an inner-ring suburban city of the Dallas–Fort Worth Metropolitan area. Richardson is important because it can be clearly defined as an industrial district, with over 600 high-technology firms and 70 000 employees. The results suggest that the district is robust and highly innovative with considerable capacity for self-sustaining growth. The firms are well integrated, locally and nationally. Despite extensive formal connections, firms' relationships are not very embedded locally. The link between embeddedness and innovation is subtle at best, and is confined to a small set of the most highly innovative firms. Similarly, evidence of a well-established industrial milieu was not forthcoming, although it may be emerging. The relationship between milieu and innovation was vague and was confined to the most innovative firms. The long-term viability of the district is closely tied to the economic health of the metropolitan economy, suggesting that development strategies focused on the district per se are likely to meet with limited success.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The need for innovative development of healthcare institutions is determined by the necessity to increase the efficiency of organizational processes based on the formation of new models of cooperation, which will make it possible to get access to new technologies and knowledge. The goal of the study is to determine the parameters of the impact of innovative open cooperation strategy and the strategy of innovative closed cooperation of healthcare institutions on the effectiveness of their organizational structure in the context of dissemination and the use of knowledge. Simulation modeling was applied to generate the most effective organizational management structure in the context of innovative cooperation and knowledge exchange within the organizational processes “Inside-out” and “Inside-in”. It is substantiated that the strategies of innovative cooperation “Open Innovation/Closed Innovation” have a significant impact on the organizational structure of management of healthcare institutions in terms of the “degree of centralization” (Dci), “degree of mediation” (Dii), and “degree of centralization of powers” (Dpi). The values of the selected criteria range from 25,52% to 61,50% in the case of Dii, and from 34,53% to 52,63% in the case of Dci, which indicates a higher efficiency of organizational knowledge exchange processes in healthcare institutions, which adhere to the Open Innovation strategy of innovative cooperation. Therefore, there are significant differences in the effectiveness of the management’s organizational structure depending on the degree of openness of innovative cooperation of healthcare institutions. The strategy of innovative openness allows increasing the number and quality of connections in the context of knowledge exchange between the subjects (actors, agents) of the organizational structure (in a broad sense, considering internal and external levels of externality) of healthcare institutions, regardless of the distance between them and the level of similarity.

In the article the author views economic and managerial issues of development of innovative activities of industrial enterprises based on the implementation of economic processes of the National technological initiative; presents the parameters of NTI implementation; shows that the effectiveness of innovative development of industry determines the creation of future markets, allowing enterprises to shape the image of the future of industry, to carry out a continuous and complex innovation process, the production of innovations, their commercialization and market demand. The author substantiates the relevance of implementing the processes of innovative development of the industrial complex of the region on the basis of NTI, which consists in the fact that the creation of innovations and their commercialization allowed enterprises to have a leading position among similar manufacturers, creating products with a high level of knowledge intensity, thereby forming new technological markets. NTI stimulates the development of new markets, determining the forecast of economic development. Innovative development of the region's industrial complex on the basis of NTI involves the creation of an integration grouping of the industrial sector on the basis of the innovation ecosystem. The most significant result of the research is the development of a model and an algorithm for evaluating the innovative ecosystem of the industrial complex of the region based on NTI. The model reflects that the development of STI projects is carried out through the innovation support infrastructure. In order to implement innovative STI projects, a regional ecosystem of innovation support is being created on the basis of industrial clusters. The main importance in the ecosystem is the network connections of participants in innovative processes and their technological capabilities (points of technological growth). In the article it is shown that the strategy for implementing STI to create new markets and technologies is based on the innovative activity of industrial complexes. In the model of the proposed ecosystem of innovative support for the industrial complex of the region based on NTI, an algorithm for evaluating the effectiveness of its functioning has been developed.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Today, much is being done in Russia to ensure that the country acquires the status of an innovation-oriented power that can occupy and maintain the world leading positions in the main, strategically important areas of the state's development. Successful development of any socio-economic entity operating in modern conditions is impossible without widespread usage of innovative technologies. New technologies are important in open innovation processes for enterprises, because due to them, they can meet customer expectations and achieve higher corporate financial performance. By creating new organizational connections to take advantage of emerging technological opportunities, entrepreneurs are restructuring the economy, driving change and overall economic growth. In addition to the focus on innovation, an important direction in the development concept of a socio-economic entity is solving environmental issues. More and more companies are thinking about creating environmentally friendly products with minimal impact on the environment. Such products have a higher attractiveness for the consumer and compete more successfully with foreign analogues. Creating an effective program of innovative growth in compliance with environmental requirements and standards is one of the most important factors in improving competitiveness and sustainable development of Russian enterprises.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Abstract The consideration of the multidimensionality and multidirectionality of management science within the research process is currently a very important challenge. The search for dependencies and connections between leadership and customer orientation falls fully into the desired research trend. Both leadership and customer orientation are widely described within management science; however, the connections and dependencies which occur between them still require further, in-depth exploration and knowledge concerning leadership and customer orientation needs to be systematised. This article aims to identify further directions of study into leadership and customer orientation in an innovative company. Additional goals include the systematisation of knowledge regarding customer-oriented leadership and the formulation of research hypotheses which will become the starting point for future studies. The conclusions are supported by the results of a quantitative study which applied the CAWI method to a group of 204 business leaders from North-East Poland. The article presents the results of the preliminary research realized as part of a research grant from the National Science Centre entitled “Leadership and customer orientation in an innovative enterprise”. The results of the conducted research show that customer orientation among business leaders is not uniform and depends on the size of their company, the style of management and the type of innovation implemented by their enterprise.
