This study presents a comprehensive review and systematic analysis of 116 publications
focusing on the dynamic increase factor (DIF) in concrete, a critical parameter for evaluating …

Fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) has gained increasing interest in recent years due to its
superior mechanical properties compared to plain concrete. The failure of it is a process in …

This paper presents an innovative numerical modeling framework capable of generating
highly realistic 3D mesoscale multi-phase concrete models with unprecedented efficiency …

In this research work, dynamic nonlinear incremental finite element analysis is conducted in
ABAQUS software with an inbuilt explicit module to study the impact response of a two-way …

The paper presents a workflow for the design, material testing and numerical simulation of
shape-optimised reinforced 3D Concrete Printed (3DCP) beams tested structurally in three …

The possibility of acting impulsive loads such as blast and impact on gravity load-carrying
structural members such as slabs during their construction and service life cannot be ruled …

Develo** ultra-high fiber-reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) demands an immense quantity of
ordinary Portland cement (OPC). Using a high percentage of cement in UHPFRC leads to …

Composite structural members such as concrete-filled double-skin steel tube (CFDSST) and
concrete-filled double steel tubular (CFDST) columns are increasingly being utilized in …

Structural members with low-flexural stiffness, such as slabs, are more susceptible to
impulsive loadings induced by falling machines/tools during construction and installation …

The potential collapse of heavy components in fires can cause dynamic loads on slabs
triggering a progressive collapse of weakened slabs on lower floors. In this study, three …
