The Study of GFRP-Reinforced Steel Tube Under Axial Impact Loads

Introduction

This topic analyzes the effect of axial impact loads on glass fiber-reinforced epoxy resin (GFRP) reinforced steel. Steel structures bear live and dead loads during the service and construction period. Steel structures also bear low-velocity impact loads in case construction tools are dropped, vehicles slam into the buildings, or when there is a terrorist attack. The improvement and enhancement of the structure's components energy-dissipating capacity help in preventing the collapse of the collapse when subjected to the aforementioned forces. The reinforcement can be done through GFRP-reinforced steel. Therefore, the axial energy-dissipating capacity of building components is very important for the overall stability of the structure and preventing the loss of lives and property.

Performance and Protection Approach of Single-layer Reticulated Dome Subjected to Blast Loading

Because of the increasing terrorist attacks on buildings, many design guidelines have been developed to prevent buildings against potential blast loads. One such guideline is through a reticulated dome, which is usually adopted as the roof structure in public activities buildings prone to terrorist attacks. The analysis of global structural analysis is important for reticulated dome against blast loading since this will prevent the collapse of the building thus saving lives.

Failure Modes and Failure Mechanisms of Single-layer Reticulated Domes Subjected to Interior Blasts

Large-span spatial structures are present in many big towns and cities. Bomb attacks have been increasing over the years leading to loss of lives and destruction of property. In case a large-span spatial structure is bombed, so many lives would be lost. As such, the prediction of the potential damage to these structures subjected to blast loading is an important issue for civil engineers. This aim of this study would be to come up with an effective method for investigating the dynamic response of a reticulated dome when a blast occurs

The Counter-intuitive Collapse of Single-layer Reticulated Domes Subject to Interior Blast Loading

Most past research has focused on counter-intuitive behavior on single members. There is a dearth in research on counter-intuitive behavior occurring in real structures; which is very dangerous than for single members. The current research analyzes the dynamic response of a single-layer reticulated dome with static preloading subjected to interior blast loading.

Experimental Study of Structural Behavior of RCC (Reinforced concrete) Element at Higher Temperature

The primary objective of the current research is to enhance the fire resistance of reinforced concrete structures by learning the behavior of RCC under different temperature conditions. This knowledge would be crucial in the prevention of effects such as spalling which occur when RCC is subjected to high temperatures, and access to fire-resistant concrete, especially main structural elements such as a concrete column. There are several challenges faced by the structural behavior of reinforced concrete facing high temperatures. The resistance of the concrete reduces with the temperature, which is the module of elasticity thus increasing the admissible deformations.
