Structural Behavior of Hybrid FRP–Concrete–Steel Double-Skin Tubular Arches: Experiments and Numerical Modeling
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2024)Hybrid fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP)–concrete–steel double-skin tubular members (DSTMs) yield much higher strength-to-weight ratios and much better corrosion resistance than traditional reinforced concrete members. The ... -
Structural Adequacy and Network Criticality: An Integrated Approach for Prioritizing Bridge Adaptation to Automated Truck Platooning
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)The emergence of connected and autonomous vehicles technology presents a unique challenge for existing highway bridges. Trucks forming platoons and traveling in close, high-speed formations offer fuel efficiency gains but ... -
Strongly Coupled 2D and 3D Shallow Water Models: Theory and Verification
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)We introduce a monolithic/strong, interfacial coupling formulation between two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) shallow water (SW) and transport models. This coupling becomes necessary in regions such as estuaries ... -
Stress-Based CPTu Cyclic Liquefaction Triggering Procedures: Improvements from a State Parameter Approach
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)The study of the liquefaction phenomenon and its consequences has been of permanent research interest in geotechnical earthquake engineering due to the wide recognition of its significant damage potential. However, despite ... -
Stress Test and Analysis of Pipeline Systems under Foundation Settlement in a Natural Gas Station
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)The complex geological environment inside a natural gas station results in varying degrees of foundation settlement, which causes the deformation of pipelines and equipment and then results in natural gas leakage. A stress ... -
Stress Distribution in Concrete with Nonuniform Passive FRP Confinement
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2024)Understanding the stress distribution within concrete structures under complex loading conditions is crucial for investigating their failure mechanisms and ultimate strength design. Nevertheless, internal-stress distribution ... -
Strengthening Reinforced Concrete Deep Beams with Web Openings Using CFRP, Steel Plates, and Skin Reinforcement
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)Web openings in deep RC beams significantly reduce the strength and stiffness of these structural elements. To overcome this, strengthening practices have been implemented by incorporating various techniques. Several studies ... -
Strengthening of Eccentric and Concentric Reinforced Concrete Columns Using CFRP Sheets with and without Confinement: A Numerical Study
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)Strengthening reinforced concrete columns (RCC) has become an essential technique due to its critical role in existing structures rehabilitation. The behavior of RCC strengthened with fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) was ... -
Strength, Durability, Corrosion Resistance, and Microstructure of Cemented Soil Incorporating Nano-MgO under Static and Cyclic Loading: A Laboratory Study
