As a promising strengthening solution, carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets have
been used to improve the structural response of concrete-filled steel tubes (CFSTs) in …

Due to the increasing popularity of concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) members, there will
be more chances of vehicles/vessels or terrorist attacks on these structures in near future …

Concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns have shown great potential as axial load
carrying member and used widely in many mission critical infrastructures. However …

In recent years, the risk of damage or failure of axial load bearing structural members has
increased rapidly due to increase of accidental vehicle/ship collision events. Therefore …

Hollow structural members are highly vulnerable structural components subjected to
transverse impact loads. These tubular members have been used widely in both onshore …

Axial load-bearing structural members often experience significant damage or failure when
subjected to moving-vehicle or vessel collisions. Hollow steel tubular columns are highly …

This paper presents the detailed Finite Element (FE) numerical modeling technique and
dynamic lateral impact simulation of bare and FRP strengthened Circular Hollow Section …

The structural formwork used in aero-plane, vehicle, ship and other structures can be
subjected to impact loading when they collide with other objects under explosive event. The …

Concrete filled steel tubular (CFST) columns are increasingly used in bridge piers and high-
rise buildings due to their excellent axial load bearing capacity. These columns may …

Bridge columns are continuously exposed to major damage due to vehicle collisions, and
such collisions can result in disastrous consequences. Composites such as carbon fibre …
