Abstract: A finite-element model for nonlinear analysis of reinforced concrete flat plate structures is presented. A flexible layering scheme incorporating the transverse shear deformation is formulated in shell element environment. ...

Abstract: A three-dimensional (3D) hypoelastic material model for modeling material properties of cracked reinforced concrete is proposed. Material properties of multidirectionally cracked reinforced concrete are represented by the ...

Abstract: Dust removal in ports exacerbates water shortages and coastal pollution, particularly in coal ports with significant dust production. Constructing green ports for water conservation and emissions reduction is the future ...
