Abstract: This study proposes a closed-form explicit, exact analytical model for bending deformation accounting for the interface nonlinearity in regular steel–concrete composite beams with partial shear connectors. A nonlinear shear ...

Abstract: Accurate residual life evaluation is crucial for maintenance of corroded bridge wires, and a stress-life (S-N) curve is determined for the fatigue strength of steel wires after corrosion. The S-N curve is established based ...

Abstract: A composite bridge deck system with steel fiber-reinforced concrete (SFRC) is an effective solution to the fatigue cracking problem of steel orthotropic decks. The governing fatigue failure modes were investigated by ...
