Fuzzy Time-Dependent Reliability Analysis of RC Beams Subject to Pitting Corrosion
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Steel bars pitting corrosion is an electrochemical process that could seriously jeopardize the reliability of reinforced concrete structures. Even if detailed models exist to predict the lifetime of the concrete element ...
Genetic-Algorithm-Based Strategies for Dynamic Identification of Nonlinear Systems with Noise-Corrupted Response
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The main objective of this paper is to investigate efficiency and correctness of different real-coded genetic algorithms and identification criteria in nonlinear system identification within the framework of non-classical ...
Evolutionary Polynomial Regression–Based Statistical Determination of the Shear Capacity Equation for Reinforced Concrete Beams without Stirrups
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The shear capacity of reinforced concrete (RC) beams without stirrups is an important aspect in designing and assessing frame-type buildings. As a consequence, nearly all design codes provide equations for the evaluation ...

Simplified Lateral-Torsional Buckling Analysis in Special Truss-Reinforced Composite Steel-Concrete Beams
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The paper addresses the lateral-torsional buckling for a special steel truss structure which is adopted to reinforce a particular class of composite steel-concrete beams. The investigated instability phenomenon deals with ...
