Abstract: To clarify the effect of an epoxy resin (EP) system and ingredient content on the properties of epoxy asphalt (EA) and its mixtures (EAM), which is instructive for the selection of epoxy products and the promotion of its ...

Abstract: An experimental study on the strength and deformation of concrete‐filled square box stub‐columns is presented. Six specimens of concrete‐filled composite columns were tested under cyclic compressive loads. For comparison, ...

Abstract: Steel bridge piers under cyclic loading due to strong earthquake motion should be designed considering not only the strength but also the ductility capacity. Steel sections with concrete infill are being increasingly used ...

Abstract: The purpose of this experimental study is to investigate the influences of the filled-in concrete on the strength, ductility and energy absorption capacity of the column. A total of 12 concrete-filled steel box column ...

Abstract: The present study is aimed at developing a rational design formula for predicting the ultimate strength of steel outstands in compression. To this end, an extensive elastoplastic large displacement finite-element method ...

Abstract: This paper is aimed at evaluating the ultimate strength and ductility capacity of steel pipe section columns subjected to cyclic out-of-plane transverse loading as well as the constant in-plane eccentric vertical load. A ...

Abstract: A seismic design method for thin-walled steel frame structures is proposed in the present paper. The method employs a pushover analysis to investigate the structural nonlinear behavior. A failure criterion accounting for ...

Abstract: This paper is aimed at investigating the ultimate strength and ductility capacity correlation between centrally loaded and eccentrically loaded steel columns subjected to cyclic transverse (horizontal) load at their top. ...

Abstract: During the Hyogoken-Nanbu earthquake near Kobe, Japan, on January 17, 1995, damage occurred not only in steel box-section bridge piers but also in pipe-section piers. The pipe-section piers are usually designed with ...

Abstract: The present paper is concerned with ductility evaluation of steel pipe-section bridge piers under cyclic loading. For this purpose, an elastoplastic large deformation analysis is carried out to obtain cyclic behavior of ...
