Predicting the contribution of recycled aggregate concrete to the shear capacity of beams without transverse reinforcement using artificial neural networks
(Elsevier Ltd, 2020)
Although many researchers have studied the shear and flexural behavior of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) beams, code provisions have not been modified yet to take RAC into account. Therefore, the slow development of ...
Hybrid CFRP-steel for enhancing the flexural behavior of reinforced concrete beams
(King Saud University, 2020)
Hybrid use of Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites with conventional construction materials offers an ample opportunity to develop economical and high-performance structures. However, anchoring and debonding ...
Innovative model for accurate prediction of the transfer length of prestressing strands based on artificial neural networks: Case study
(Elsevier Ltd., 2020)
This study provides a case study showing the effectiveness of utilizing Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) in prestressed concrete. The effectiveness of prestressing is crucially linked to the transfer length (TL) of the ...
Control of Vibrations of Common Pedestrian Bridges in Jordan Using Tuned Mass Dampers
(Elsevier B.V., 2020)
Due to their inherent slenderness and lightness, pedestrian bridges are typically subtle to human induced vibrations. This study was conducted to investigate the effect of human induced vibrations on common simply supported ...
Energy performance of fuzzy logic controllers in smart buildings
(Econjournals., 2019)
This article presents simulation study on using fuzzy logic based controllers in order to determine building’s occupancy level and hence its effect on energy usage. The projected results of energy savings then is used to ...
Critical Evaluation of the Shear Lag Factor Provisions for W-Sections
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2020)
Shear lagging, resulting from non-uniformity of stress distribution around the connection, is one of the most important design considerations in steel construction since it reduces the load capacity of tension members. In ...
The extrema point deviatoric moment component
(Ain Shams University, 2021)
The concern plate's behavior was the growth of the extrema positive tensors of both mean (hydrostatic) and deviatoric moments. Systematic consideration of the limits and growth responses of the mean and deviatoric tensors ...
Response of interior beam-column connections integrated with various schemes of CFRP composites
(Elsevier, 2021)
This study evaluates the effectiveness of integrating Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) composites for improving the response of interior Beam-Column (B-C) connections under the combined effects of axial and lateral ...
Solar assisted cooling rule in indoor air quality
(Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science, 2020)
Indoor air quality as always is the centre of attention for researchers, architect developers and public health officials. As every-one know. The human exposure to a variety of indoor pollutants and the high cost of energy ...
NLFEA of Sulfate-Damaged Circular CFT Steel Columns Confined with CFRP Composites and Subjected to Axial and Cyclic Lateral Loads
(MDPI, 2022)
It is rather costly and difficult to experimentally evaluate the performance of concrete-filled tubular (CFT) circular steel columns exposed to combined axial and cyclic lateral loads. This research paper uses the nonlinear ...
