Auxetics are a class of structural metamaterials with a negative Poisson's ratio. In
comparison to conventional structures, auxetic structures are proven to exhibit several …

New steel-concrete-steel sandwich beams with interlocked angle connectors (SCSSB-IACs)
were first proposed, and their static behaviours were studied via conducting two-point …

This paper firstly reported a novel type of enhanced C-channel connectors (ECs) for steel-
concrete-steel sandwich structures by the first author. The novel EC connectors were …

Firstly, this study developed a new type of sandwich composite beam using ultra-high
performance concrete (UHPC) and novel enhanced C-channels (ECs). Then, this study …

This paper developed new steel-concrete-steel (SCS) sandwich composite structures using
novel enhanced C-channels (ECs) for civil engineering infrastructures as shear walls, bridge …

The prediction of the penetration of three-dimensional (3D) shaped charge into steel plates
is a challenging task. In this paper, the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method is …

Experimental and numerical studies are conducted to investigate the blast behavior of small-
scale reinforced concrete slab (RCS), which is proposed to overcome the disadvantage of …

This paper developed novel steel–concrete-steel sandwich composite walls (SCSSCWs)
with enhanced C-channels (SCSSCW-ECs), and studied their compressive behaviours …

This paper reports the developments of steel-UHPC-steel sandwich composite walls with
novel EC connectors (SUSSCW-ECs). The ECs in SUSSCW-ECs directly linked the two …

The developments of double skin composite (DSC) walls with novel enhanced C-channel
connectors (DSCW-EC) were reported. Followed axial compression tests on prototype walls …
