RISNonlinear Dynamic Analysis of Torsionally Coupled Isolated Structures
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: A simple yet accurate approach to evaluate the seismic performance of a torsionally coupled multistory building isolated by nonlinear isolators and subjected to strong ground motions is presented in this paper. In this ...
Rehabilitation of RC Beams with Web Openings Using Alkali-Activated Fiber-Reinforced U-Jacket
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The structural performance of a damaged web opened beam repaired and strengthened by U-shaped jacketing with fiber-reinforced geopolymer concrete (FRGC) is evaluated. Reinforced concrete (RC) beams with openings in the ...
Presenting the Potential of Optimum Torsionally Coupled Base Isolators for Vibration Control of Torsionally Coupled Structures: Exact Closed-Form Expressions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper explores the potential of optimum torsionally coupled base isolators for the vibration control of torsionally coupled structures. Newton’s second law is used to derive the governing equations of motion, and the ...
Numerical Solution of Single Piles Subjected to Pure Torsion
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Torsional load on pile foundations is induced by the action of eccentric horizontal forces on the supporting structures. Such loading not only initiates twist at the pile head, but also reduces its axial capacity significantly ...
Numerical Solution of Single Pile Subjected to Simultaneous Torsional and Axial Loads
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Torsional loads on pile foundations are induced by the action of eccentric horizontal forces on the supporting structures. Such loading not only initiates twisting at the pile head but also reduces its axial capacity ...
Measured and Predicted Response of Pile Groups in Soft Clay Subjected to Cyclic Lateral Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Major offshore and onshore structures, including transport corridors and high-rise buildings, resting on soft compressible clays are often supported by pile foundations. Apart from the usual vertical loading from the ...
Numerical Solution of Single Pile Subjected to Torsional Cyclic Load
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Large structures, such as offshore platforms, wind turbine foundations, wide buildings, bridges, and railway granular embankments, are often supported by pile foundations. These structures are usually subjected to large ...
Mapping Datafication in Construction-Worker Safety Research to Minimize Injury-Related Disputes
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Construction workers are susceptible to work-related injury, which increases the probability of a workers’ compensation claim. But the workers’ compensation claim can cause dispute for several reasons such as whether the ...
Monitoring Physiological Reactions of Construction Workers in Virtual Environment: Feasibility Study Using Noninvasive Affective Sensors
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The purpose of this study is to determine the relevance of the physiological sensors in a virtual construction scenario to monitor the laborers’ physiological behaviors to improve the safety level at the site. This research ...
UBFS-Based Fiber-Reinforced Geopolymer Concrete as Jacketing Material for Retrofitting
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Recently, a new sustainable binder named geopolymer has gained significant momentum due to its cost-effectiveness and environmental benefits. In the present paper, material characterization of fiber-reinforced geopolymer ...
