The construction sector is well known for its critical environmental impact resulting from the
consumed amounts of raw materials and the tremendous emissions of greenhouse gases …

It is common knowledge that structural fires have led to a great loss of buildings and damage
to property in the past two decades. Therefore, there is a growing need to provide …

Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) bar is increasingly employed, due to their advantages in
higher tensile strength, light weight and corrosion resistance than steel bars. A numerical …

In this research, a new analytical model is developed to analyze structural members
strengthened with FRP systems and subjected to impact loading conditions. ABAQUS based …

During dynamic events (such as impact forces), structures fail to absorb the incoming energy
and catastrophic collapse may occur. Impact and quasi-static tests were carried out on …

The compression test of glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) partially strengthened
corroded reinforced concrete (RC) columns subjected to freeze-thaw cycling was conducted …

Under the action of earthquake, the reinforced concrete (RC) columns may subject to
torsional moment, and the existence of torsion will change the failure mode of RC columns …

Reinforced concrete (RC) structures may confront with extreme loading conditions.
Sometimes, structures are not only under extreme loading such as earthquakes but also …

Most of the available experimental research on Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) confined
concrete columns focus on the fully-confined and small-sized ones, while there are few …

The key issue for the finite element analysis (FEA) of section steel reinforced concrete (SRC)
structure is how to consider the bond-slip performance. However, the bond-slip performance …
