Parametric design of developable structure based on Yoshimura origami pattern
Sustainable Structures, 2022 Origami is an ancient art form and can be divided into rigid and non-rigid origami. Rigid origami is suitable for the design of building structures because the panels are not twisted and deformed during the folding process.

The effect of metal corrosion on the structural reliability of the Pre-Engineered steel frame
Journal of Materials and Engineering Structures, 2020 Nowadays, Pre-Engineered steel buildings are widely used in the field of the industrial construction. However, design standards often only care about the safety (or reliability) at the start time but not concerned about the deterioration of reliability ...

Green function of curved rail-beam
Journal of Materials and Engineering Structures, 2017 In this article, we study the dynamic behavior of the rail under inclined loads. The rail is modeled as a curved beam under lateral loads. When a train enters a curve, two sources lead to these lateral forces that have rarely been studied by previous ...
