Abstract: In the numerical simulation of stochastic nonstationary wind loads, rapidly varying wind speed fluctuations about a deterministic mean value typically represent the sole source of random variability. Adopted in ...

Abstract: To quantify the monetary losses associated with damages induced by tornado wind storms, a numerical performance-based engineering framework complete with dynamic simulation of tornado-like wind fields, calculation of ...

Abstract: Surface and subsurface inspection of concrete structures provides useful information for the maintenance of these structures. Remote sensing techniques such as radar and microwave sensors enable engineers to assess structural ...
