Current trends and developments in progressive collapse research on reinforced concrete flat plate structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Progressive collapse of structures caused by extreme or accidental loads may lead to significant loss of life and property. Considerable research efforts have been made to date to mitigate the probability of progressive collapse and its consequences ...

Studying the Effect of Initial Damage on Failure Probability of One Story Steel Buildings [PDF]

open access: yesIranica Journal of Energy and Environment, 2013
Progressive collapse is a kind of failure in which the collapse of one or several load bearing elementsis ended in partial or total collapse of structures.

Progressive collapse risk analysis: literature survey, relevant construction standards and guidelines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A technical literature survey has been conducted concerning the problems of building robustness and progressive collapse. These issues gained special interest in construction after the partial collapse of the Ronan Point apartment building in London in ...

Strain Rate Effect on the Progressive Collapse Analysis of RC Frame Structure under Earthquake

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2020
The strain rate effect can influence the seismic responses of reinforced concrete (RC) structures because the constitutive relationship of concrete and rebar is rate-dependent.

Collapse simulation of a typical super-tall RC frame-core tube building exposed to extreme fire [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The previous fire accidents proofed that reinforced concrete (RC) structures may experience progressive collapse subjected to extreme fires. In consequence, the study on the extreme fire-induced progressive collapse of RC structures is important for the ...

Earthquake-Induced Domino-Type Progressive Collapse in Regular, Semiregular, and Irregular Bridges

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2019
Progressive collapse is a persistent spread and enlargement of initial local failure of structures characterized by inconsistency between the initial failure and its resulting extensive collapse.

Experimental study and numerical analysis of progressive collapse resistance of composite frames [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A partial damage caused by an abnormal load could trigger progressive collapse of high rise buildings which may lead to terrible casualties. However, in the process of column failure, "catenary action" plays an important role in redistributing the ...

Is vegetation collapse on Borneo already in progress? [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards, 2016
Vegetation and tropical forests in particular have a central role in mitigating the effects of increasing levels of atmospheric CO2. Photosynthesis is the fundamental process during which CO2 is taken up by plants and fixed into carbohydrates. The effect of temperature on the rate of photosynthesis in different plant species is directly related to ...
