Abstract: This article investigates a dynamic slab assignment problem (DSAP) that arises in the slab production process of steel industry. In DSAP, a set of slabs and orders arrive dynamically at each ...

Abstract: Traditional methods for quality inspection of reinforcing bars (rebars) in reinforced concrete (RC) structures are labor-intensive, time-consuming, and pose safety risks. Recent methods ...

Punching shear is a possible type of failure that occurs in reinforced concrete flat slabs, which can develop with an ultimate load below flexural capacity. Several researchers have studied the ...

Waffle slab structures simulated by computational model are generally analyzed by simplified methods, for both the section geometry (converting into solid slabs or grids) and for the material ...
