[EN] Analysis of the structural behavior of the historical constructions by the damage model through mechanical characterization of the material obtained by laboratory tests. This analysis has been particularly applied to ...

The new High-speed rail lines represent a considerable improvement in communication between cities but their operation can generate problems. Building new High-speed rail lines require vibrational studies to evaluate ...

Loading conditions on railway tracks are the result of the sum of the static axle load of vehicles and augments caused by dynamic effects. Dynamic loads have several causes and can be quasi-static or impacts. Cracking in ...

This paper presents a hybrid folded plate-space truss model and its application to the analysis of the structural behaviour of a steel tram viaduct in the city of Valencia (Spain). The first part of this work deals with ...

[EN] The behaviour of concrete-filled steel tubular columns under axial compression or combined compression and uniaxial bending has been deeply investigated in past years by means of experimental testing and numerical ...

[EN] Slim-floor beams are a novel typology of steel beams where the steel profile is fully embedded within the concrete floor depth. While the use of this system is increasing fast in the construction practice, the available ...

[EN] Concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) columns have been applied popularly in recent years, where they were connected with reinforced concrete (RC) beams or steel beams in a building. This paper proposes a joint system ...

[EN] In this paper, a nonlinear three-dimensional finite element (FE) model was developed and validated to study the effect of seismic damage location on the response of concrete filled tube (CFT) columns at fire after ...

[EN] In breast cancer screening or diagnosis, it is usual to combine different images in order to locate a lesion as accurately as possible. These images are generated using a single or several imaging techniques. As ...
