This study aims to investigate the effects of key parameters on the interfacial bond strength between two concrete members. Different types of overlay in terms of strength (normal-strength concrete, high-strength concrete), ...

This study applied three Artificial Intelligence (AI) models to project the Ductile to the Brittle Transition Temperature (DBTT) of Functionally Graded Steels (FGS). These prediction models are Minimax Probability Machine ...

Nonlinear static (pushover) analysis is widely used for analyzing structures, especially in the performance-based design method. Increasing the lateral load in pushover analysis causes changing the axial forces of beam-column ...

The main objective of this research is to identify buildings with and without shear walls that adequately resist lateral load by utilizing finite element-based ETABS software that can minimize the displacement and drift ...

Travel time reliability affects the behavior of passengers in private or public transportation and can be seen as an important factor in the context of freight transportation. The main cause of travel time oscillation, ...

In this experimental study, a mechanical and economic analysis has been done to investigate the performance of recycled steel fibers (RSF) from waste tires. Two types of recycled fibers, including Recycled Steel Fibers ...

For dynamic modal analysis of the gravity dams, it is required to solve the non-symmetric eigenvalue problem which is a time-consuming process. This paper aims to propose a new procedure for this purpose. In this novel ...

Although some researchers indicated that the rotation response of the structure is a proper index to identify the damage location, Wavelet Transform (WT) of rotation response of the bridge is not yet used to detect the ...
