Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEvolutionary Structural Optimization of Wind Bracing Connection Plates in Steel StructuresReza Kasiri, Saeid Eslamian, Theodore C. Crusberg et al.Evolutionary Structural Optimization (ESO) is one of the rules in structural engineering which has received much attention by the researchers. Today, the reduction of construction cost and weight is an important issue in the structure design. The optimization phenomenon is pursuing to fulfill this objective. Thus, presenting a design which could be both safe and economic is of special significance. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 15 Jul 2020 · 6,968 accessesView PDFCite
InvestigationOpen accessPhrase in the titleInvestigating the Parameters Influencing the Behavior of Knee Braced Steel StructuresEdris Farokhi, Mehrdad GordiniIn Knee-Braced Frames (KBF), the brace is connected to the knee element rather than the beam-column joint. For reasons such as having sufficient lateral stiffness despite its adequate ductile behavior, the concentration of damage in the Double Knee-Braced structural elements and also ease of repair and replacement of these elements after an earthquake, this bracing system is preferred over conventional … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 21 Sep 2015 · 7,808 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCase Study on the Effects of Plan Irregularities on Seismic Performance of StructuresEduardo Flores, Tadeh ZirakianGeometric configurations, such as large openings, re-entrant corners, and discontinuity in diaphragms, are very common in architectural design but are seen as undesirable for structural performance during earthquakes. The lateral systems in a structure resist the strong forces induced during an earthquake, preventing damage or collapse of the structure. If these systems fail, the structural integrity of the building may … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 21 Jul 2024 · 5,723 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOptimization of Reinforced Concrete Beams and Steel Beams: A Comparative StudyJoel M. Ozimboski, Zacarias M.C. Pravia, Moacir KripkaIn order to support the structural designer with regard to the selection of structural materials, this work presents results obtained from the optimization of reinforced concrete beams and welded “I” steel beams. To achieve this objective, both problems were formulated according to Brazilian standards, considering the cost as objective function and section dimensions as design variables. For the optimization of … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 18 Jun 2020 · 6,596 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTests of Glass Insulating Panels with Embedded Laminated Point ConnectionsMichaela Zdražilová, Zdeněk Sokol, Martina EliášováEmbedded laminated point connections represent a progressive way of glass structures connecting. However, detail information about their performance is not available yet and the design procedure is mostly based on experimental work and previous experience of designers. Within an ongoing research at the Faculty of Civil Engineering of the Czech Technical University in Prague, a set of real-scale insulating glass … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 9 Mar 2022 · 10,155 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental and Numerical Analysis of Continuously Coupling Timber-Lightweight EPS Concrete Composite SystemNikola Perković, Vlatka Rajčić, Jure BarbalićA composite system based on concrete and timber represents a very successful engineering solution in the process of optimization of construction. Nowadays, by combining different timber products and concrete classes it is easy to achieve improved engineering features for elements in different static systems or load cases. This paper presents an overview of the research initiated by solving the problem … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 2 Feb 2021 · 6,433 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of the Known Hypotheses of Lateral Buckling in the Elastic-Plastic States of Thin-Walled Semi-Slender ColumnsKrzysztof MurawskiStability of structures, as known, is a challenging issue, especially in critical engineering, i.e., in designing structures which in a wrong design process could cause a catastrophe. The avoidance of possible stability troubles is mandatory. In this study, the simplifications and hypotheses of loss of stability by lateral buckling in elastic-plastic states of semi-slender columns axially compressed by force are … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 21 Dec 2020 · 6,252 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFire Evaluation of RC Frames Strengthened with FRPs Using Finite Element MethodReza Salehi, Abbas Akbarpour, Armaghan ShalbaftabarReinforced Concrete (RC) structures may confront with extreme loading conditions. Sometimes, structures are not only under extreme loading such as earthquakes but also, they may be subjected to fire. Therefore, investigation of reinforced concrete structures which are the most common ones is essential. In this study, experimental RC frame is considered to validate in ABAQUS finite element software. RC frame … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 5 Oct 2020 · 7,135 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFinite Element Evaluation of RC Frames Strengthened with FRPs under Fire and Lateral LoadsReza Salehi, Abbas AkbarpourReinforced concrete is one of the most common structures in the world. These structures may be under extreme loading conditions such as earthquake or they may confront with other flooding, impact or even the fire load. In the term of fire load, RC structures are very sensitive and due to the brittle behavior, the fast collapsing happens. In this research, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 27 Sep 2020 · 6,702 accessesView PDFCite
