Quantifying Model Selection Uncertainty in Structural Analysis: Methodology and Application

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With increasing focus on complex engineering systems under rare events, computational models are critical for predictions due to the scarcity or absence of data. However, selecting an appropriate model can be challenging. Using a single model without available test calibration could result in significant bias in performance predictions. A case

Structural Behavior of SFRC Beams strengthened with GFRP Laminates: An Experimental and Analytical Investigation

open access: yesBrazilian Archives of Biology and Technology
This paper presents the experimental results of a reinforced concrete beams (RC) strengthened with internal steel fibers (SF) and external glass fiber reinforced polymer laminates (GFRP). The research work studied the load carrying capacity, deformation,

A fracture-mechanics model for debonding of external fibre reinforced polymer plates on reinforced concrete beams

open access: yes, 2006
A Fracture-mechanics model for debonding of external fibre reinforced polymer plates on reinforced concrete beams is presented. The conventional methods of concrete-FRP interface analysis use finite element models, which require details of unknown and ...

Experimental and numerical analysis of the cyclic behaviour of RC beam-column connections with plain reinforcing bars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The information available in the literature about the cyclic behaviour of reinforced concrete elements with plain reinforcing bars is scarce. As a consequence, the influence of bar slippage in elements with plain bars is not yet comprehensively ...

Finite Element Modelling of Rocking and Hybrid Precast Walls under Seismic Loading

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In recent years, self‐centring systems have received considerable research interest in the seismic design of precast concrete structures for their ability to limit damage and satisfy resilience requirements. Rocking and hybrid structural walls, characterised by the formation of a single gap at the wall–foundation interface, mitigate damage by ...

Curvature Ductility of High Strength Concrete Beams [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The ductility of reinforced concrete beams is very important, because it is the property that allows structures to dissipate energy under seismic loading, consequently, the brittle fractures of reinforced concrete structures can avoided.

Similar Material Simulation Study on Dam Movement and Deformation Law of Deep Coal Seam Mining Under Dam

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Aiming at the difficulties in accurately calculating the movement and deformation of small‐sized, deep‐buried dams with a significant height‐to‐depth ratio in deep fully mechanized caving mining, this study proposes to separate the analysis of surface and dam deformation.
