Abstract: In this experimental study an acoustic emission (AE) technique was used on geometrically similar notched plain concrete three-point bend specimens of different sizes. This study aims to measure the acoustic emission energy ...

Abstract: In this paper, a single‐story, bilinear‐hysteretic structure, square in plan and supported on four columns, subjected to two horizontal ground motions is studied. The model is assumed to possess three degrees of freedom, ...

Abstract: Mathematical models, for the stress analysis of symmetric multidirectional double cantilever beam (DCB) specimen using classical beam theory, first and higher-order shear deformation beam theories, have been developed to ...

Abstract: Mathematical models, for the stress analyses of unidirectional end notch flexure and end notch cantilever specimens using classical beam theory, first, second, and third-order shear deformation ...

Abstract: In developing a one-dimensional analysis and design procedure for reinforced concrete structures, research is generally based on yield phenomena and the plastic flow of steel in tension and concrete in compression. The ...
