Abstract: In the field of nondestructive evaluation and damage detection, there is continued interest in the utilization of vibrational techniques. Structural damage will result in permanent changes in the distribution of structural ...

Abstract: Studies have shown that experimentally determined dynamic properties can be used to identify the characteristics of a structure. In this paper, a damage detection technique is developed and demonstrated using system ...

Abstract: In this paper, an experimental and analytical investigation of concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) laced columns is presented. These columns consist of four concrete-filled steel tubes that are laced together. A total of ...
