Dynamic Analysis of a Steel Floor System with Dry Slabs Subjected to Vibrations Due to Human WalkingInternational Journal of Steel Structures - - 2020
Priscilla I. S. Ribeiro, André V. S. Gomes, Adenilcia F. G. Calenzani
One of the contemporary architecture trends is the design of structural elements
that cover longer clearances to provide flexibility in the architecture of
buildings. The technological and constructive evolutions in civil engineering
assure the feasibility of such trends due to the use of structural elements with
increased slenderness and reduced weight, such as steel structures that utilize
dry s... hiện toàn bộ
Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) Based Compressive Strength Prediction of AFRP Strengthened Steel TubeInternational Journal of Steel Structures - Tập 20 - Trang 156-174 - 2019
Abderrahim Djerrad, Feng Fan, Xu-dong Zhi, Qi-jian Wu
The use of FRP composites as external confinement has recently become a very
important system to consider when reinforcing concrete and steel structures.
Many constitutive models have been proposed to design such structures. However,
the emergence of artificial neural network offers a better alternative with a
strong prediction capability. In this research, an artificial neural network
(ANN) based... hiện toàn bộ
Strength and behavior of a vertically pre-tensioned composite rigid frame bridgeInternational Journal of Steel Structures - Tập 13 - Trang 367-378 - 2013
Wonseok Chung, Daeki Jung, Seong-Min Kim
In this study, a new type of composite rigid frame bridge is developed, and its
feasibility was validated through a full-scale test. The core technology of the
proposed bridge entails the introduction of prestressing force to steel girders
by applying vertical prestressing to readily embedded high-strength steel bars
at the pier wall. The proposed prestressed rigid frame bridge was designed to
red... hiện toàn bộ
Investigating Approximate Methods to Predict Residual Interstory Drift Ratio Demands in Steel Eccentrically Braced FramesInternational Journal of Steel Structures - Tập 22 - Trang 176-191 - 2022
Roohangiz Arab, Masood Yakhchalian
Residual drifts after earthquakes are important for decision-making about
repairing or rebuilding a structure. There are some approximate methods that
predict the residual drift demands of structures after earthquakes. Most of the
approximate methods have been proposed for structures with moment resisting
systems. Recent studies have shown that eccentrically braced frames (EBFs) can
have considera... hiện toàn bộ

Collapse mechanisms of single curvature tensegrity systemsInternational Journal of Steel Structures - Tập 17 - Trang 1115-1129 - 2017
B. Shekastehband
Tensegrity systems are composed of any given set of cables connected to a set of
struts in which cables connectivity must be able to stabilize the configuration.
In the present study, the collapse mechanisms of single curvature tensegrity
systems was investigated by carrying out nonlinear collapse analyses using
finite element method. Having verified the finite element modeling with the
experiment... hiện toàn bộ
An Experimental Study of an SMA-Based Self-Centering DamperInternational Journal of Steel Structures - Tập 22 - Trang 610-621 - 2022
Hongwei Ma, Jiaxin Xu, Shaofeng Li
The self-centering energy dissipation devices can reduce or avoid the residual
inter-storey drifts of structures. This study aims a shape memory alloy (SMA)
-based self-centering damper that employs the pre-tensioned SMA wires and
pre-compressed springs as energy dissipating group and re-centering group,
respectively. Compared with the conventional self-centering dampers which mainly
use SMA wires... hiện toàn bộ
Shear Capacity Analysis of Welded Steel I-Girders with Corrugated Webs based on First YieldInternational Journal of Steel Structures - Tập 21 - Trang 1053-1062 - 2021
Xuqun Lin, Harry Far, Xutong Zhang
Steel I beams or girders with sinusoidal corrugated profile webs have become
popular in the recent development of the steel structural designs, since
corrugated-web beams (CWBs) can provide better performance in terms of less
deformation and more stability against buckling failure. It is verified in
previous research that CWBs can be considered as an alternative to replace
normal beams in the stru... hiện toàn bộ
Seismic retrofit of structures using steel honeycomb dampersInternational Journal of Steel Structures - Tập 17 - Trang 215-229 - 2017
Minhee Lee, Joonho Lee, Jinkoo Kim
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the seismic performance of a
honeycomb shaped steel hysteretic damper applied to seismic retrofit or
strengthening of a structure. The formulas for the initial stiffness and yield
strength of a damper unit were derived based on the cell wall bending model, and
the results were compared with those obtained from finite element analysis.
