This paper studies the impact performance of concrete filled FRP-steel tube which is a composed structure made by filling concrete into steel tube and wrapping outside with fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) sheet. Numerical simulations have been conducted to study the dynamic response of fixed-pined supported beams of concrete filled FRP-steel tubes. The finite element models of concrete filled FRP-steel tubes are established to analyse its lateral impact dynamic characteristics under different loading situations, with respective kinds of FRP and thicknesses of steel tubes. The impact force and displacement histories were recorded. Comparing to the traditional concrete filled steel tube structure, the concrete filled FRP-steel tube indicates a promising structure with more advantages in the mechanical and constructional performance. Especially with its higher loading-carrying capacity and better toughness, it is more adaptable for the structures subjected to accidental impact load. Analytical solution is compared with experimental result to show the correctness and the effectiveness of present study.

Concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) columns are increasingly used in the construction of high-rise buildings which require high strength and large working space especially at lower stories. As compared to reinforced concrete columns, existence of the exterior steel tube not only bears a portion of axial load but also most importantly provides confinement to the infill concrete.with the confinement provided by the steel tube, axial strength of the infill concrete can be largely enhanced.this paper presents the investigation effect of impact load on concrete-filled steel tube columns under fire by numerical simulations using ABAQUS software.the results indicate that the CFST sections with larger confinement factor ξ=1.23 behaved in a very ductile manner under lateral impact. And the sections with smaller confinement factor ξ=0.44  generally behaved in a brittle mechanism.

Concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) structures have been widel y used in civil engineering structures, due to its good behaviors under both static and dynamic loads. In this paper, numerical studies were carried out to investigate the anti-impact behavior of partially concrete-filled steel tubular (PCFST) columns under lateral impact loads. Finite element analysis (FEA) model was established using ABAQUS. To validate the FEA model, the numerical results were compared with experimental results. Moreover, parameter analysis was carried out to further study the anti-impact behaviors of the PCFST columns. The concrete filling height, the impact energy, the impact direction, and the yield strength of steel were the main parameters considered in this study. The dynamic responses under the impact load, including the impact force, the failure mode, and the displacement response, were all analyzed. The results of parameter analysis showed that the anti-impact behaviors of the PCFST columns significantly increased when the concrete filling height or the yield strength of steel increased greatly. The impact energy and direction also greatly affected the anti-impact behaviors of the PCFST columns.

Concrete filled steel tube (CFST) column is an important type of structural member and its protective design is essential to enhance its structural performance under various dynamic loads. Previously carried out studies on CFST columns tried to determine how to improve their structural response under various loadings, such as axial compression, lateral impact, blast, seismic, etc. Apart from investigations on transverse impact loading, the majority of the other studies on CFST under various loads established solutions and protective measures. Therefore, this study aim is to improve the performance of CFST under transverse impact loads. The geometrical and mechanical properties, boundary conditions, impact loading and dynamic explicit analysis employed in that study. This paper proposes a novel design in terms of cross-sectional configuration and smart materials to be applied on the CFST in order to improve its performance under lateral impact loading. The proposed investigation is exclusively numerical and its results were verified with the experimental results from literature. The considered three main variables were including (1) concrete-filled double skin steel tubular – CFDST with both first sandwich layer and internal carbon steel tube filled with normal strength concrete – NSC, (2) CFDST with first sandwich layer filled with Ultra High-Performance Fiber-Reinforced Concrete – UHPFRC. a. The parameters including failure modes, maximum mid-span deflection, and residual displacements were presented.

In order to reveal the impact mechanical properties and their key influencing factors of the bolted rock under the lateral impact load, through the lateral drop hammer impact test, the time-history curve of impact force, axial force of the bolt, and surface strain of the sample under different combination types of influencing factors is obtained, and the whole process of deformation and failure of the bolted rock is recorded. The test results show that the material of the bolt has a significant influence on the impact force and axial force of the bolt. There is a positive correlation between bolt strength and impact peak and impact attenuation slope and a negative correlation between bolt strength and impact action time. The effect of prestress on the impact resistance of the bolted rock was also evaluated by the test which suggested that prestress of the bolt can significantly reduce both impact time and bolt axial force of the bolted rock but has limited effect on the impact force. It was also found that the time-history curve of the impact force of anchoring rock mass had significant difference with full-length anchoring and nonanchoring. Compared with the nonanchoring bolt, the full-length anchored rock mass has a larger impact peak and shorter action time, which means that the impact resistance of the full-length bolted rock has a certain degree of weakening. Through scientific research, determining the reasonable bolt material, prestress value, and anchorage style can improve the impact resistance of the sample.
