Experimental testing of residual strain and displacement development in pretensioned BFRP reinforced concrete beams [PDF]
The utilisation of fibre reinforced polymers (FRPs) as reinforcement for concrete elements has attracted attention mainly due to their high tensile strength, light weight and corrosion resistance.

The contribution of hydroisostasy to modern changes in sea level and vertical displacements of the solid surface of the Earth in the Far Eastern seas [PDF]
Global warming causes further degradation of glaciers and the release of water into the World Ocean. The influx of additional water leads to a rise in sea level. The rate of modern water level rise is still influenced by the residual processes from the

Development of efficiency index for steel moment frames with Self-Centering Connections [PDF]
Traditional earthquake-resistant systems are dependent on the inelastic response of the building members. These systems experience significant residual displacements after major earthquakes due to seismic energy distribution all over the building and ...

Enhancing Friction Pendulum Isolation Systems Using Passive and Semi-Active Dampers
Friction pendulum systems (FPSs) are a common solution for isolating civil engineering structures under ground movements. The result is a base-isolated structure in which the base exhibits low shear stiffness in such a way that the input energy of the ...

Seismic Study of Skew Bridge Supported on Laminated-Rubber Bearings
Skew bridges consisting of simply supported girders, continuous decks, and laminated-rubber bearings are widely used in western China; however, they are highly vulnerable to strong earthquakes.
