DOI: 10.1007/s10518-020-00859-3
Abstract: Limit analysis is a computationally efficient tool to assess the resistance and the failure mode of structures but does not provide any information on the displacement capacity, which is one of the concepts which most… read more here.

DOI: 10.1155/2020/8219712
Abstract: Accidental loads such as explosion and vehicle impact could lead to failure of one or several load-bearing members in the structures, which is likely to trigger disproportionate progressive collapse of overall structures. Prestressed concrete (PC)… read more here.
