  • Multi-Scale Dynamic Monitoring and Behavior of Cross-Laminated Timber Elements and Systems

    Creator:
    Mugabo, Ignace
    Abstract:
    Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) is one of the latest engineered wood products to show promising structural features for a variety of structural purposes including resisting lateral loads. For CLT to be widely adopted, its modal behavior needs to be fully evaluated through experimental and numerical methods. It is important to the...

  • Seismic Retrofit of Square Reinforced Concrete Bridge Columns using Titanium Alloy Bars

    Creator:
    Shrestha, Sharoo
    Abstract:
    There are many aging bridges in service in the US and around the world that were not constructed to modern seismic design codes and standards. As a result, they are expected to perform poorly during intense earthquake ground shaking. Older reinforced concrete (RC) bridges, in particular, are often supported on...

  • Structural Response of High-Performance Fiber-Reinforced Cementitious Composites: Evaluation, Simulation, and Sensitivity Analysis

    Creator:
    Khlef, Feras L.
    Abstract:
    The constitutive behavior of high-performance fiber-reinforced cementitious composites (HPFRCCs) under mechanical loading is characterized by significant tensile properties that play an essential role in the structural response of several applications in structural engineering. The significance of tensile properties of HPFRCCs in structural engineering is the focus of three manuscripts presented...
