Airworthiness certification requires proof of structure strength, which is performed generally through a building block approach. To achieve this, representative intermediate-scale experiments generated by test benches are, in general, needed, in additio...

Corrugated web girders with plate flanges have been widely applied in buildings and bridges due to the large shear capacity of the corrugated web (CW). However, experiments on corrugated web girders with tubular flanges are limited. Accordingly, this pap...

Most regional seismic damage assessment (RSDA) methods are based on the rigid-base assumption to ensure evaluating efficiency, while these practices introduce factual errors due to neglecting the soil?structure interaction (SSI). Predicting the influence...

Traditionally, the numerical simulation work of a bridge gravity anchorage structure is performed with a continuous method, such as the finite element method (FEM). However, since the rock mass and gravity anchorage structure are assumed to be continuous...
