Residual capacity is defined as the load carrying capacity of an RC column after undergoing
severe damage. Evaluation of residual capacity of RC columns is necessary to avoid …

This study examines the behaviors of structural members in their most vulnerable state (fixed
along their weak axes) against sudden loads such as impact loads. To do so, eight …

The equivalent static loads method for nonlinear dynamic response structural optimization
may be failed in large deformation crash conditions, due to topology optimization with the …

The characteristics of motile microorganism and three dimensional Darcy-Forchheimer
nanofluid flow by a porous rotatable disk with heat generation/absorption is reported …

In situations related to occupant impact protection, the free mass constraint of the occupants
significantly influences the dynamic response characteristics of impact isolation structures. In …

In this paper, energy absorption characteristics of circular windowed tubes with different
section shapes (circular, ellipse, square, hexagon, polygon and pentagon) are investigated …

In this paper, the simplified ordinary differential equations are solved with shooting
technique. The concentration and microorganism slip boundary conditions are implemented …

Energy absorbers are crucial for absorbing collision energy, and much research is being
done continuously to enhance their performance. These structures are widely applicable in …

The use of gradiently grooved tubes has reaped emphasis in designing of crashworthiness
systems for safeguard of commuters in passenger bus collisions. Also it is very essential to …

Most transportation departments have recognized and developed procedures to address the
ever-increasing weights of trucks traveling on bridges in service today. Transportation …
