Abstract: Experimental studies were conducted to examine the behavior of concrete-filled double-skin tube (CFDST) columns exposed to fire after being subjected to simulated seismic loads. The experiments were conducted in two separate ...

Abstract: Detailed finite-element (FE) analyses were conducted using commercial software to simulate the behavior of concrete-filled double-skin tube (CFDST) columns subjected to postearthquake fires. The main goal of these simulations ...

Abstract: The concept of disaster resilience has received considerable attention in recent years and is increasingly used as an approach for understanding the dynamic response to natural disasters. In this paper, a new performance ...

Abstract: The dual-hazard inelastic behavior of concrete-filled double-skin steel tubes (CFDSTs) is experimentally investigated as a substitute to reinforced concrete columns for bridge piers in multihazard applications. Results ...
