In the paper, most suitable probability distributions for SCFmax in DKT-Joints stiffened with FRP under axial loading conditions are studied. To this end, 1296 models were generated and then analyzed ANSYS to provide five reliable samples. Created FE validated using previous laboratory data. Afterward, predict appropriate distribution models, 12 different kinds of utilized check fit curve Next, accuracy reliability curves assessed help goodness-of-fit tests, such as Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS)...

With growing concerns about the danger of global climate change and worldwide demand for energy, interest in investigation construction renewable energy technologies has increased. Fixed platforms are a type support structure wind turbines composed different types tubular joints. These structures under kinds cyclic loadings ocean environmental conditions, which must be designed reinforced against fatigue. In present paper, relationships between parameters DKT-joints with FRP axial loads...

Urban areas and historical centres are exposed to climate change, decay, human threats, among other menaces, which jeopardize their safeguard. Besides, in general, stakeholders, or decision-makers, do not require interventions be sustained by previous evaluations of impact the urban heritage. To fill this gap, international organizations charge protection cultural heritage (e.g., UNESCO, ICOMOS, ICCROM), line with what happens environment, request a holistic integrated evaluations, regarding...
