INSPECT-PBEE: a performance-based earthquake engineering GUI for IDARC-2D
(Elsevier, 2019)
Designs that are performance and functionality driven typically mandate the nonlinear analysis. Up To date, nonlinear analysis remains a sophisticated tool that may not appeal to majority of structural/earthquake practicing ...
The flexural behavior of bolting and bonding Aluminum Alloy plates to RC beams
(Elsevier, 2019)
The aim of this experimental investigation is to study the effect of using externally bonded and bolted Aluminum Alloy (AA) plates on the strength, stiffness, ductility and failure modes of Reinforced Concrete (RC) beams. ...
Use of Aluminum Alloy Plates as Externally Bonded Shear Reinforcement for R/C Beams
(Elsevier, 2019)
Fiber Reinforced Polymers (FRP) and steel had proven to be very effective as externally bonded shear strengthening materials However, they both have their shortcomings. Recently developed high strength Aluminum Alloy (AA) ...
Shear Strengthening of Reinforced Concrete Beams Using CFRP Wraps
(Elsevier, 2019)
The need to retrofit existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures have increased over the decades due to corrosion of steel reinforcement inside the concrete, neglect and overuse, and increased loading. Experimental and ...
Up-to-date earthquake and focal mechanism solutions datasets for the assessment of seismic hazard in the vicinity of the United Arab Emirates
(Elsevier, 2019)
This article presents updated and unified Poissonian earthquake and focal mechanism catalogs for the United Arab Emirates and its surroundings. Data were compiled from different local, regional, and international sources. ...
