Nowadays, new materials are widely used for improving the bearing capacity of the soils and geosynthetics include the type of these materials which are utilized in this regard. In addition, the geofoam panel type of geosyntethic materials is useful and an alternative for backfill in retaining wall or pavement layers. The present research mainly aimed to investigate sthe effects of geofoam parti...

Under the dynamic conditions of pulsatile flow, the forces exerted by the fluid on the vessel wall create considerable displacements and stresses within the thickness of the vessel wall. We review a series of analytical options for exploring the dynamics of the vessel wall, specifically displacements and stresses within the depth of the vessel wall, under a range of conditions including the deg...

Steel plate shear walls (SPSWs) have advantages such as high elastic stiffness, stable hysteresis behavior, energy absorption capacity, and decent ductility. However, one of the main drawbacks SPSWs is their buckling under lateral loading. To address this issue, a simple practical solution in form using trapezoidal moment connection (PMC) narrow gap between infill columns presented. The PMC wil...

Abstract In order to study the seismic performance of steel tube bundle composite shear wall with different constructions. Based on failure tests three specimens without end, studs and stiffener, a feasible numerical model is established by ABAQUS. The hysteresis curve energy dissipation coefficient, skeleton ductility were further analyses varying axial compression ratio spacing internal diaph...
