Abstract: A survey of the behavior of reinforced concrete subjected to dynamic loading is presented. Provisions for seismic design in current design codes have been developed on the basis of results obtained from static tests. ...

Abstract: A survey of the behavior of concrete subjected to dynamic loading is presented. Since the mechanical properties of materials are functions of the rate of loading, they need to be determined with respect to straining rate ...

Abstract: This paper presents the analytical results obtained from a parametric study on the thermal behavior of three types of composite bridge structures subjected to solar radiation, namely, a plate‐girder, a single‐cell box, and ...

Abstract: An objective of this paper is to study control design based on incomplete measured data. An approximate modal method is used to estimate the modal responses of the structure, based on incomplete measured data. An optimal ...
