Multidimensional nonlinear numerical simulation of post‐tensioned concrete girders with different prestressing levels
Most of the Italian infrastructures have been built since the mid‐twentieth century.
Prestressed concrete (PC) has been widely used, especially for bridges and viaducts. These …

Numerical simulation of post‐tensioned concrete girders with defective grouting including local stress–strain tendons response
In internally post‐tensioned (PT) prestressed concrete (PC) structures, the prestressing
system is usually made of high‐strength steel tendons embedded within concrete through …

[HTML][HTML] Influence of strand rupture on flexural behavior of reduced-scale prestressed concrete bridge girders with different prestressing levels
In prestressed concrete (PC) bridges, high-strength prestressing steel plays a key role in the
flexural response of girders. In both pre-stressed and post-tensioned PC bridge girders …
