Abstract: In this paper, a series of joint tests and full-scale structural tests were performed to assess the effectiveness of pultruded glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) profiles for rehabilitating lattice steel columns. The ...

Abstract: This paper proposes a simple and efficient finite-element (FE) model to accurately predict the structural response of lattice steel structures, which incorporates the effect of joint slip. The proposed model is validated ...

Abstract: Precise determination of a local geoid is of particular importance for global positioning system (GPS) height determination. The geometric method has been widely used for a relatively small area, which interpolates geoid ...
