Since there is a growing interest in driving the digital transformation of the construction
industry, the goal of this paper is to provide a full picture and understanding of the emerging …

Every year, structural flaws or breakdowns cause thousands of people to be harmed and
cost billions of dollars owing to the limitations of design methods and materials to withstand …

To improve the control performance of stay cables, a novel negative stiffness inerter damper
(NSID) that consists of a negative stiffness device in parallel with an eddy current inerter …

Long stay cables may be subject to vortex-and rain-wind-induced vibrations. To suppress
the two types of vibrations simultaneously, integrating the advantages of negative stiffness …

Stay cables in cable-stayed bridges are subjected to various types of dynamic excitation
mechanisms under environmental loads. The excited vibrations can have a large amplitude …

One of the significant categories that profoundly influence global warming is the building
industry. Many measures have been considered to reduce the building industry's impacts on …

In this study a machine learning-based design procedure for a new seismic retrofit system is
presented and its seismic retrofit capability is validated by intensive seismic analyses. The …

For decades, one of the most critical considerations of civil engineers has been the
construction of structures that can sufficiently resist earthquakes. However, in many parts of …

Fluid viscous dampers (FVDs) have shown their efficiency as energy-dissipating systems,
reducing the effects induced on structures by dynamic loading conditions like earthquakes …

This paper investigates the effectiveness of a new hybrid passive control system on the
seismic response of an existing steel cable-stayed bridge considering the pounding effect …
