DOI: 10.1007/s12205-018-0454-3
Abstract: A prediction model for evaluating the effective plastic hinge length for existing Reinforced Concrete (RC) columns under lateral load reversals is presented. The plastic hinges were observed during the test of twenty-four column specimens, which… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.soildyn.2017.08.019
Abstract: Abstract Coastal bridge piers exposed to marine environments always suffer from non-uniform corrosion along the elevation. Severe degradation in the splash and tidal zone would significantly affect the seismic performance of the structure with a… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/app13116765
Abstract: Blasting demolition plays an important role in building demolition, and numerical-simulation methods can facilitate the optimization of blasting-demolition schemes. To study the influence of the delay-time differences between columns on the blasting and demolition effect… read more here.
