The new Ti?Zr (Roxolid®) mini-implants have not yet been fully researched. We analyzed peri-implant and posterior edentulous area microstrains during mandibular overdenture (OD) loading at different sites with different extents of forces when one-, two-,...

In reinforced concrete flat slab buildings, the transference of unbalanced moments in the slab?column connections usually results from the asymmetry of spans, vertical loads, and horizontal forces from the wind. The punching strength of the slab?column c...

A three-dimensional (3D) fully-coupled fluid-structure model has been developed in this study to calculate the impact force of tsunamis on a flexible structure considering fluid-structure interactions. The propagation of a tsunami is simulated by solving...

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...

Concentrically braced frame (CBF) systems are susceptible to buckling (which causes a decrease in energy absorption), although this system has considerable lateral stiffness and strength. To over this shortcoming, researchers have suggested the use of I-...
