Gradient Boosting‐Based Modeling of Structural Performance in Hybrid Multi‐Tube Columns
This study presents an advanced predictive framework for estimating the ultimate confined strength (fcc,u) and ultimate strain (εcc,u) of a hybrid multi‐tube concrete column (MTCC), an innovative structural system that combines a fiber‐reinforced polymer (FRP) outer tube, inner steel tubes, and void‐filled concrete.
