With increasing terrorist attacks in recent years, many researchers paid special attention to
investigate the responses and failure behaviors of reinforced concrete (RC) structures …

One of the biggest challenges associated with modelling the behaviour of reinforced
concrete is the difficulty of incorporating realistic material models that can represent the …

For RC columns exposed to blast loads, fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) is employed to
examine its effectiveness in strengthening the concrete structure against blast load. It should …

Pressure-Impulse (PI) models as graphical representations are frequently adopted to
evaluate damage of structures subjected to extreme loads. The main objectives of this …

There is an urgent need to develop appropriate techniques that will enable structural
engineers to design and assess building structures which are vulnerable to blast events to …

In this study, a review of previous research that investigates the influence of strain rate on
the dynamic and quasi-static behaviour of concrete and steel material behaviour is …

Reinforced concretes (RC) have been widely used in constructions. In construction, one of
the critical elements carrying a high percentage of the weight is columns which were not …

This paper presents experimental research on the damage characteristics of steel fiber
reinforced concrete slabs (SCS), steel fiber reinforced concrete slabs mixed with fly ash …

The dynamic behaviour of concrete-filled double-skin steel tube (CFDST) columns under
close-in blast loading was investigated using experimental and numerical approaches in the …

Reinforced concrete (RC) columns are crucial in building structures and they are of higher
vulnerability to terrorist threat than any other structural elements. Thus it is of great interest …
