Abstract: Microscopic simulation using an efficient microcomputer‐based program is employed in evaluating alternative control strategies for intersections during construction. The program runs on an IBM PC or compatible, is interactive ...

Abstract: In the field of nondestructive testing of structural components, active thermography methods are increasingly in demand. The most experience is available in testing of carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) or similar types ...

Abstract: Torsional stability of centrally loaded columns, having doubly symmetric sections, often is critical. The torsional stability can be improved by locally placed plates connecting the different flanges of the column partially ...

Abstract: Lateral restrained and free buckling of I‐beams often represent a limiting factor in their bending performance. Consideration of this becomes increasingly more important when the engineer seeks full advantage of new ...

Abstract: An experimental and analytical study was conducted to investigate the fatigue behavior of tension steel plates strengthened with prestressed carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates. A simple fracture mechanics ...
