Abstract: Basalt fiber–reinforced polymer (BFRP) is widely used to reinforce concrete due to its high strength, lightweight nature, good corrosion resistance, and low cost. Previous studies have shown that the double-helix BFRP ...

Abstract: Debris hazard causes most of the casualties and injuries in terrorist or accidental explosions. It is defined as high-velocity fragments originating from structural components and building envelope systems induced by a ...

Abstract: In the present study, the dynamic response and damage of concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns under close-in explosion were numerically studied. An extensive parametric study was carried out to investigate the ...
