Journal of Urban and Environmental Engineering, Vol. 7, No. 1 (January to June 2013), pp. 164-175 (12 pages) Abstract: Rehabilitation and strengthening of old structures using advanced materials is a ...

We consider fiber reinforced ideally plastic composites. We analyze a mathematical model valid for microstructures and applied stresses that lead to both microscopic and macroscopic anti-plane shear ...

This project quantified the improvement in structural behavior of reinforced concrete shear walls retrofitted with a new method that allows the walls to rock over the foundation and self-center after ...
