Titanium-clad bimetallic steel (TCBS) is a new type of structural steel, which consists of TA1
cladding with outstanding corrosion resistance and Q235 mild steel base with good …

In this study, titanium-clad bimetallic steel (TCBS) was innovatively introduced into the plate
girder as a web, which enhanced the durability. The ultimate strength of a longitudinally …

Compared with stainless steel, stainless-clad bimetallic steel (SCBS), which comprises a
stainless steel cladding layer and a carbon steel base layer, requires a lower project cost …

Plate girders are important load-bearing components of bridge and industrial structures.
Corrosion significantly affects durability and service life of plate girders. Bimetallic steel …

The corrosion of structural steel has a significant impact on the durability of plate girders
servicing in marine environments. A high-performance configuration for a steel plate girder …

In steel plate girders (SPGs), a patch loading usually causes a local failure in the vicinity of
the loading area of the girder web. However, estimating the patch loading resistance (PLR) …

When a steel structure does not collapse after a fire, it is meaningful to study its residual
resistance after exposure to elevated temperatures to evaluate its post-fire service capacity …

Systematic investigations on the patch loading resistance of plate girders with different
Q460, Q550, Q690, and Q960 high-strength steels (HSSs) were numerically performed with …

This paper proposes a hybrid machine-learning model, which is called DANN-IP, that
combines a deep artificial neural network (DANN) and an interior-point (IP) algorithm in …

This paper, for the first time, develops novel hybrid machine learning models that combine
Support Vector Machine, Naïve Bayes, K-Nearest Neighbors, Decision Tree, Random …
