The effects of the loading pattern, the steel plate thickness, the axial load ratio, the slenderness ratio and the aspect ratio were taken into consideration. The damage evolution process and failure modes of the tested specimens are presented in detail. Test results are also discussed in terms of the hysteretic curve, skeleton curve, ductility and energy dissipation capacity of DSCB pier specimens. It can be concluded that the hysteretic performance of DSCB piers in one direction is affected and weakened by the cyclic loading in the other direction. DSCB piers under bidirectional cyclic loading exhibit good performance in terms of load carrying capacity, ductility, and energy dissipation capacity. Overall, DSCB piers can meet the basic aseismic requirements. The research results can be taken as a reference for using DSCB piers as high piers in bridges in strong earthquakeprone areas.展开更多

The triggering voltages of four types of dual direction SCRs (DDSCR) are compared and analyzed, pMOS or nMOS are embedded into the structures to adjust their triggering voltages. Both MOSFETs embedded DDSCRs have tunable triggering voltage,low DC leakage (~pA), and fast turn on speed snapback I-V characteristics without latch-up problem. It achieves high ESD performance of ~94V/μm. The new ESD protection devices are area efficient and can reduce the parasitic effects significantly.展开更多
