Numerical Analysis of Reinforced Masonry Shear Walls Using the Nonlinear Truss Approach
… wall structures. Among the various methods, the truss analogy is deemed attractive for its conceptual simplicity and excellent accuracy, as indicated by recent studies focusing on RC walls. This thesis uses an existing modeling method, based on nonlinear truss models, to simulate the behavior of …

Computational Simulation of Chloride-Induced Corrosion Damage in Prestressed Concrete Bridge Girders
… girders. The analyses rely on two types of models, namely, beam models and nonlinear truss models. The latter are deemed necessary to obtain reliable estimates of the shear capacity, as beam models are not well-tailored for capturing shear failures. A procedure to account for the reduction …
