The gradation index of safety and reliability evaluation of in-service concrete girder bridge members is discussed based on the reliability theory and the existing safety [...]

As viewed from concept, seismic subsidence of loess is an abrupt settlement of soil due to earthquake loading in non-saturated and low moisture conditions. In laboratory [...]

Before subject to complex cyclic loading induced by seismic loading, the initial stress conditions of soil element beneath the foundation under the structures generally c [...]

Viscous liquid dampers can be installed in high-rise buildings of high intensive seismic regions to reduce their responses under earthquake. The placements of dampers are [...]

Hybrid control and semi-active control systems have been studied to take advantage and yet avoid some shortcomings of active and passive controls. In this paper, the hybr [...]

Five RC beams without shear reinforcement were cast at the concrete laboratory of New Jersey Institute of Technology. After the beams were kept in the curing room for 28 [...]
