Abstract: This paper presents the application of an advanced modeling strategy for the nonlinear analysis of structures with unreinforced masonry (URM) components under blast loading. This approach enables the investigation of the ...

Abstract: This paper concerns the development of a numerical procedure for studying steel–concrete composite beams with regard to both the collapse analysis and long-term behavior at the serviceability limit state. The interaction ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the influence of unreinforced masonry panels on the robustness of multistory buildings under sudden column loss scenarios. A recently developed multilevel framework is employed to evaluate the ...
