Fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP) have been developed as replacement materials for steel
bars and tendons in concrete structural members for decades. These materials offer …

The primary drawback of concrete lies in its low tensile strength, prompting the development
of various solutions to enhance this aspect. A notable approach is the utilization of …

Rockfall impact on bridge piers poses a challenge to the safety of bridge structures in
mountainous regions. Hollow reinforced concrete (RC) piers are one of the popular …

Inspired by the biological structure of the beetle elytra, the bio-inspired honeycomb column
thin-walled structure (BHTS) is designed as lightweight buffer interlayer to prevent the key …

This paper aims to validate circular reinforcement concrete (RC) members' responses to the
effect of an asymmetrical lateral impact span train collision. It was determined that the RC …

This paper is devoted to Reinforced Concrete (RC) beams that can be subjected to
accidental falls of substantial masses (hard impacts at low velocities), such as the beams of …

Wildlife fence protection systems specifically designed for animal protection are critical in
mitigating wildlife-vehicle collisions and preserving animal habitats. These systems are quite …

Reinforced concrete (RC) piers are frequently used in bridges although vehicle-pier
collisions have increasingly highlighted their poor impact resistance. Specifically, RC …

Recently, hollow reinforced concrete (RC) piers have been increasingly utilized in bridge
structures located in mountainous regions, owing to their high strength-to-mass ratio and …

In order to protect the reinforced concrete (RC) slab structure from damage under some
accidental conditions, such as impacting and explosion, we used bio-inspired honeycomb …
