Complex collision phenomena can occur between the Friction Pendulum System (FPS) and
shear keys under earthquake, potentially resulting in shear keys sheared off. Based on a …

Given the pivotal role of connections in the progress of the precast building industry, issues
such as costs, chain collapse, and low robustness in all degrees of freedom are critical …

This study proposes a novel shape memory alloy (SMA)‐based self‐centering (SC) precast
segmental concrete column (PSCC). The entire structural system, called SSC‐PSCC, can be …

The seismic performance and design method of fabricated concrete bridge piers limit their
applications in complex and harsh environments. In this study, a continuous bridge pier in …
