RC flat slabs supported by an array of columns subjected to the action of impulsive pressure were investigated. The slabs were designed for static loads according to current standards. The dynamic responses of 4 × 4- and 8 × 8-column-supported slabs were...

To prevent brittle damage and improve the post-earthquake rapid repair capability of beam-column connections, a precast reduced beam section (PRBS) connection joint that can be rapidly repaired under earthquake action was proposed in this study. Four spe...

In the current design of steel eccentrically braced frames (EBFs), the yielding link is coupled with the floor beam. This causes the design of cross-sectional dimensions of links to be enlarged, resulting in over-designed structures and foundations, and ...

The force distribution proposed by codes, which in many cases is framed in the equivalent static force procedure, likely leads to design structures with non-uniform drift distribution in terms of inter-storey drift and ductility demands. This can lead to...

Sea-going ships are unique systems, and each ship?even those which are mass-produced?are different. Once in service, they are subjected to unique environmental exposure due to a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, their mode of operation, ...

Detection of early-stage corrosion on slender steel members is crucial for preventing buckling failures of steel structures. An active photoacoustic fiber optic sensor (FOS) system is reported herein for the early-stage steel corrosion detection of steel...
