Experimental and Finite Element Study of Polymer Infilled Tube-in-Tube Buckling Restrained Brace

Experimental and Finite Element Study of Polymer Infilled Tube-in-Tube Buckling Restrained Brace

This study presents a tube-in-tube buckling-restrained brace (BRB) infilled with lightweight and rapid hardening polymer. The proposed BRB consists of a circular or square tube core encased with a tube of similar shape and polymer infill. The tube-in-tube arrangement minimizes the filler material vo...
