This study explores the use of high tensile ductility engineered cementitious composites
(ECC) to replace the plastic hinge region in conventional reinforced concrete (RC) pier …

The railway bridge piers with large cross section and low reinforcement ratio are easy to
damage under earthquakes in China. The steel grid has been proved to be an effective …

This article presents the results of numerical simulations performed using ABAQUS/CAE
version 2019. The study aims to evaluate the structural integrity of reinforced concrete (RC) …

The behavior of non-ductile concrete frames infilled with unreinforced masonry walls
rehabilitated by adding a new cast-in-place reinforced concrete (RC) wall was assessed …

At present, the seismic performance of most strengthened seismic-damaged RC frames has
only been analyzed for a strengthened joint or column, not for the whole frame. Furthermore …

The huge amounts of old and damaged tires spread worldwide has caused many complex
environmental risks. The old tires have been converted to crumb rubber (CR) and tire …

To enhance the seismic performance of reinforced concrete (RC) elements, it is essential to
consider both strength and ductility post-yielding. This study proposed a novel method to …

This study investigates the axial compression behavior of confined circular concrete
columns through a combined experimental and analytical approach. It examines the …

In recent decades, the application of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites for
the strengthening and rehabilitation of reinforced concrete (RC) structures has emerged as a …

This manuscript studied the effect of U-CFRP wrapped sheet anchorage on the flexural
performance of unbonded post-tensioned PC members subjected to partial strand damage …
