The characteristics of sago starch exhibit remarkable resemblances to those of cassava,
potato, and maize starches. This review intends to discuss and summarize the synthesis and …

This study presents a multi-platform simulation method for performance assessment of
reinforced concrete (RC) structures subjected to impact loading. The method is …

Bridge columns made of normal concrete are evidenced to be susceptible to vehicle
collisions. Particularly in the United States, vehicle collision has become one of the primary …

Amlodipine (AD) is a calcium channel blocker that is mainly used in the treatment of
hypertension and angina. However, latest findings have revealed that its efficacy is not only …

Both the peak dynamic force (PDF) and the equivalent static force (ESF) of a vehicle
collision with reinforced concrete bridge columns were examined as part of an extensive …

The paper aims to develop a new protective structure based on ultra-high performance fiber
reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) to protect bridge columns against vehicle collisions and to …

This paper presents the behavior of an innovative accelerated bridge construction system of
hollow-core fiber-reinforced polymer–concrete–steel (HC-FCS) columns under vehicle …

This study proposes a general reduced vehicle model for simulating truck-bridge pier
collisions. The model was calibrated using high-fidelity finite element (FE) simulations based …

Pier columns, as primary bridge supports, are vulnerable to extreme loading demands
resulting from fire, vehicle collisions, and blasts. The combined effects of these demands …

The development of different types of crashworthy devices that can alleviate the damage of
bridge piers under vehicle collisions has attracted the attention of many researchers …
