One of the biggest demand of growing population, and cornerstone of the socio-economical growth of Nations, Energy is expected today to be Sustainable, Easy to Reach, Economical, and Continuous. As one of the most common ...

The transmission of vertical or horizontal structural forces to the supporting soil is a challenge to analyze for structures on elastic foundation which represent a complex medium. The two-parameter elastic foundation model ...

Assessment of concrete strength in existing structures is a common engineering problem. Several attempts in the literature showed the potential of ML methods for predicting concrete strength using concrete properties and ...

In the reinforced concrete, masonry or steel structures should be strengthened or repaired. Carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP) have been widely used for the last 20 years for repairing and strengthening of inadequate ...

Mechanical and elastic behaviors of anisotropic materials are investigated in an innovative way. This is based on generalized Hill inequalities. From different type of anisotropic elastic symmetries, numerical examples ...

Ahşap yapılar ve yapı elemanlarında yapıştırıcı ve mekanik bağlantı elemanları ile bir araya getirilmiş birleşim bölgerinin genel yük-deplasman davranışı, kayma gerilmesi- kayma deplasmanı davranışları, yapısal sistemin ...

Beams might be subjected to impact loading which is a particular type of dynamic loading during their service lives. In this study the behaviour of beams under low speed impact loading has been investigated analytically. ...

This paper presents a convenient method to describe the degree of the elastic anisotropy in a given type of wood and then discusses its practical values. Besides mechanical and elastic behaviour of wood are investigated ...

Steel bridge beams can be damaged due to increased traffic loads and environmental impacts. An experimental study on the use of bonded and mechanically anchored carbon-fibre-reinforced polymer (CFRP) strips was undertaken ...
