Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP)-reinforced concrete beams are increasingly used in infrastructure, yet their flexural behavior under fatigue and harsh environmental conditions remains insufficiently studied. This study investigates the fatigue response and structural behavior of 12 glass-FRP (GFRP)-reinforced concrete beams under four environmental regimes ...

Earthquakes can cause significant damage to constructed structures, leading engineers to design systems that effectively reduce damage and improve real-time vibration control. While base isolation is a commonly used passive method for seismic protection in highway structures, it has limitations such as a lack of immediate adaptation, constrained power dis ...
