This paper presents an experimental investigation of the dynamic moment-rotation
relationship of flexure-critical RC columns under low-velocity impact. Impact tests of RC …

This study aims to examine the influence of eccentric axial loads on the lateral low-velocity
impact behaviors of RC columns. Firstly, the numerical simulation approach is validated by …

Reinforced concrete (RC) structures may encounter impact loads during service life, such as
vehicle collisions, ship strikes, and explosions. Limited existing impact tests on RC columns …

Circular reinforced concrete (RC) columns have been widely used in the bridge structures
(eg, piers) due to their economic and functional advantages. However, RC columns are …

In this study, the performance and damage behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) columns
under lateral soft impact are comprehensively investigated using 3D finite element (FE) …

A novel pendulum test setup was designed to investigate the influence of the axial loading
method on the dynamic responses of reinforced concrete (RC) columns under impact load …

RC bridge columns that are at risk for collision loading must be designed for lateral impact
load. Because bridge columns must also support axial loads, evaluating the residual axial …

The performance of GFRP (Glass Fiber polymer) bar RC (Reinforced Concrete) circular
columns subjected to lateral impact was experimentally investigated. Sixteen GFRP bar RC …

In this study, thirty specimens were tested using a drop hammer impact test machine,
comprising six reinforced concrete columns and twenty-four specimens of the composite …

In this paper, the effects of axial load on dynamic responses and failure behaviors of
reinforced concrete (RC) columns subjected to lateral impact loading are evaluated using …
