Abstract: To study the shear behavior of the steel-block shear connector (SBSC) welded on a steel beam, eight push-out experiments were conducted, including two specimens with cast-in-place (CIP) concrete decks and six specimens ...

Abstract: The multiscale modeling method is newly introduced to the research on cable anchorage systems for self-anchored suspension bridges with steel box girders to improve the reliability of the conventional modeling methods. Two ...

Abstract: This paper presents a time-varying model-based method for estimating earthquake-induced displacement responses of building structures using limited acceleration data. First, a time-varying model which considers the variability ...
