Influence of patch load length on strengthening effect in steel plate girders
(Journal of Constructional Steel Research, 2022)
The present paper aims to numerically investigate the influence of patch load length related to various geometric parameters on the patch loading resistance of steel plate girders. Geometric parameters such as the web ...
Influence of slab deflection on the out-of-plane capacity of unreinforced masonry partition walls
(Engineering Structures, 2023)
Severe damage of non-structural elements is noticed in previous earthquakes, causing high economic losses and posing a life threat for the people. Masonry partition walls are one of the most commonly used non-structural ...
Design approach for cost-effective hybrid CLT floors
(Croatian Association of Civil Engineers, 2022)
There is a growing research and production interest for the application of lower-cost
hybrid cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels composed of timber layers of dissimilar quality.
Therefore, an approach for the design of ...
Structural Behaviour of Axially Loaded Concrete-Filled Steel Tube Columns during the Top-Down Construction Method
(Applied Sciences, 2022)
The paper discusses the structural behaviour of concrete-filled steel tube columns (CFT)
when applied to the top-down construction method as temporary internal supports for ceilings. Their
ultimate capacity to take into ...
Progressive failure analysis of open-hole composite laminates using FLWT-SCB prediction model
(Elsevier, 2022)
This paper presents the original incorporation of the smeared crack band (SCB) damage model within the full layerwise theory (FLWT) framework, to contribute to the increase of the computational efficiency of the progressive ...
Performance of RC cast-in-place buildings during the November 26, 2019 Albania earthquake
(Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2022)
This paper documents performance of cast-in-place reinforced concrete (RC) buildings in the Durrës municipality during Albania earthquake of November 26, 2019 (MW 6.4). Both mid- and high-rise RC buildings were affected ...
Seismic performance of an industrial multi-storey frame structure with process equipment subjected to shake table testing
(Engineering Structures, 2021)
Past earthquakes demonstrated the high vulnerability of industrial facilities equipped with complex process technologies leading to serious damage of process equipment and multiple and simultaneous release of hazardous ...
Dynamic response of three-dimensional rigid and flexible foundations on layered soils with local inhomogeneities
(Elsevier, 2022)
The dynamic response of rigid and flexible three-dimensional (3D) foundations of arbitrary shape, placed on a homogeneous or layered halfspace, which may contain a finite, longitudinally invariant structure or inhomogeneity, ...
Section Discretization of Fiber Beam-Column Elements for Cyclic Inelastic Response
(Journal of Structural Engineering-Asce, 2012)
The paper presents studies of the effect of the number of material integration points at the monitored sections of fiber beam-column elements on the local response of typical structural cross sections under an extensive ...
Free vibration analysis of stiffened and cracked laminated composite plate assemblies using shear-deformable dynamic stiffness elements
(Elsevier Ltd, 2017)
In the paper, the dynamic stiffness method based on the HSDT and FSDT plate theories is applied to study free vibration characteristics of composite stiffened and cracked plate assemblies. The dynamic stiffness matrices ...
