Debonding at the FRP-concrete interface is one of the main failure modes in RC structures strengthened with externally bonded FRP under dynamic loading. Most debonding fa [...]

Bond behavior between reinforcement and concrete subjected to reversed loading is very important for seismic design and rehabilitation of structures, which is greatly inf [...]

The use of externally-bonded Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) sheet is a promising and effective method for increasing the shear and flexural strength of existing t [...]

The paper presents the development of a method for the decomposition of a random deformed shape of a thin-walled element into the contributions of different classes of bu [...]

Firstly, a discrete equation of motion of free spanning submarine pipeline was derived. The spatially varying earthquake ground motions, the internal pressure and the the [...]

In this paper, the rupture characteristics of the overlaying soil with soft/stiff interlayer were studied by plane-strain finite element method. From the results, it can [...]

The multi-transmitting boundary is a local artificial boundary used for numerical simulation of the near-field wave motion in infinite media. It has the advantages of cle [...]

This paper presents results of numerical analyses for the seismic response of uniform visco-elastic site under different vertically propagating seismic waves including SH [...]

The reactor coolant pump in nuclear power plant is the only revolving equipment in the nuclear power plant. Its functional stability will directly affect the security of [...]

Two modes of elastic and plastic finite element models for continuous beam bridge are established. Linear viscous fluid dampers are set at the location of the kinetic bea [...]
