The stress-strain characteristics of structural steels are predominantly influenced by their
chemical composition, manufacturing process and heat treatment. To date, various stress …

The use of numerical models in the advanced analysis and design of steel structures,
particularly under extreme loading conditions, is becoming increasingly widespread. A …

High strength materials and dynamic loadings are two important research topics for building
structures. In this study, high-strength concrete filled square steel tube columns (HSCFST) …

The stress-state and strain-rate dependent ductile fracture initiation property of S690 high-
strength steel is investigated in this study through experiments and simulations. A total of 14 …

Local buckling behaviour of welded high strength steel (HSS) I-sections subjected to
bending is crucial for structural designs, and has been found to be affected by the interactive …

In this study, the mechanical behavior under high strain rates and high temperatures of 1670
MPa, 1770 MPa, and 1860 MPa grades steel wires were investigated. Quasi-static tensile …

Hybrid steel-BFRP reinforced concrete (HRC) beams have demonstrated their ability to meet
the rigorous demands for both strength and serviceability. However, the mechanical …

The influence of welding heat input on the tensile properties and low-temperature impact
toughness of Q960E weld metals (WMs) and butt welded joints (BWJs) was investigated …

This research work aims at investigating the strain rate effects on the 17-4PH stainless steel
produced by Selective Laser Melting (SLM), with the final goal of adding knowledge about …

New ultrahigh-strength steels have been developed to meet the need for better
performance, load bearing capacity, safety and weight saving. However, the design …
