Sustainability of Composite Columns under Repeated Load and Harsh Environment
(2013-01)
Strengthening and rehabilitation are important operations for structural building to ensure sustainability. Enhancing the performance for the structural elements against the various loads and extreme conditions is the key ...
Evaluation of the Bond and Tensile Strength of GFRP Bars Exposed to Harsh Environment
(2014-01)
Fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP) have become one of the fastest-emerging materials to compete with conventional steel bars for use in concrete. The mechanical properties and durability of FRP materials are the main concerns ...
Transformer Condition Assessment Using Artificial Intelligence
(2010-05)
As a result of the deregulations in the power system networks, utilities have been competing to optimize their operational costs and enhance the reliability of their electrical infrastructure. So, the importance of ...
Effect of Basalt Fibers on The Flexural Behavior of Beams Reinforced With BFRP Bars
(2018-05)
Over the last few decades, construction materials have gone through many developments aimed at improving their structural and operational properties. The implementation of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) bars as a replacement ...
Effect of Fiber Addition on the Performance of Preloaded CFRP Strengthened Concrete Beams
(2017-12)
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of fiber addition on the performance of Reinforced Concrete (RC) beams that have been externally strengthened in flexure using Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) sheets. ...
Effect of Flexural CFRP Sheets and Plates on Shear Resistance of Reinforced Concrete Beams
(2014-05)
Ageing of reinforced concrete (RC) structures has captured the attention of a number of researchers to find different materials and techniques to strengthen and retrofit deteriorated structures. Carbon Fiber Reinforced ...
