Abstract: This paper presents an experimental study on the fatigue behavior of cracked steel beams strengthened using different patch systems and high-strength materials. These materials included normal modulus carbon fiber–reinforced ...

Abstract: This paper presents a numerical simulation on the collapse behavior and structural stability of a reinforced concrete superlarge cooling tower subjected to strong winds. Results demonstrated that the cooling tower locally ...

Abstract: This paper investigates damage and healing of cementitious materials based on fly ash (FA) with a special focus on the effect of repeated loading on the self-healing performance. In total, 90 prism specimens and 33 cylinder ...
