Abstract: In past decades, significant progress has been made in prediction of the behavior of posttensioned anchorage zones. An aspect that has not been sufficiently cleared up yet, however, is the service behavior of posttensioned ...

Abstract: The strut-and-tie model (STM) has been adopted as a preferred methodology for the design of disturbed regions; however, an aspect that has not yet been sufficiently cleared up is the service behavior of structural concrete ...

Abstract: As footbridges are lightweight and slender structures, they are highly sensitive to human-induced excitation, and control measures are required to suppress undesirable structural vibrations. As wave propagation is improbable ...
