The construction sector has been addressing the issue of integrating sustainability into
production processes over the last few years, either through solid waste materials as …

Train–track–bridge dynamic interaction is a fundamental concern in the field of railway
engineering, which plays an extremely important role in the optimal design of railway …

Reinforced concrete structures and structural members used in strategic infrastructures such
as highway bridges, high-rise buildings, etc. are inherently subjected to lateral impact loads …

This paper presents a theoretical study on effects of combined impact and blast loadings on
the failure behaviors and dynamic responses of a typical reinforced concrete (RC) column …

The dynamic responses and failure modes of reinforced concrete bridge columns under
vehicle collision have been numerically investigated in this study by using a numerical …

This paper presents a set of new test data for high strength concrete filled steel tubular
(CFST) members subjected to transverse impact. A total of 12 circular CFST specimens and …

In recent years, the high-speed railway (HSR) has got remarkable development in China. By
the end of 2016, the total length of HSR lines had been 22,000 km. In addition, there are …

This paper presents an experimental and numerical study on the dynamic behaviour of
axially-loaded reinforced conventional concrete (RC) and ultra-high performance concrete …

Bridge columns made of normal concrete are evidenced to be susceptible to vehicle
collisions. Particularly in the United States, vehicle collision has become one of the primary …

This study numerically investigates the effect of the plastic hinge and boundary conditions
on the behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) beams under slow-impact-velocity events …
