Retraction: Moment–curvature response of engineered cementitious composites under cyclic loading

Abstract

The above article, published online on 10th March 2017 in Wiley Online Library (http://wileyonlinelibrary.com), has been retracted by agreement between the Editor‐in‐Chief, Luc Taerwe, and John Wiley & Sons Ltd. The retraction has been agreed because this work has already been published in two Japanese language publications authored by Ms Yuka Onizuka who led the research: Yuka Onizuka and Toshiyuki Kanakubo.

Investigations on the shearing performance of composite beams with group studs

“…The shear bearing capacity was improved with the increase of concrete strength, highstrength bolt diameter and yield strength (Chen et al, 2015(Chen et al, , 2020a(Chen et al, , 2020b. Moreover, composite structure beams and joints under cyclic loading were also investigated (Huang et al, 2019a(Huang et al, , 2019b(Huang et al, , 2020a(Huang et al, , 2020b, and the moment-curvature response of engineered cementitious composites under cyclic loading were obtained (Zhang and Yan, 2017;Zhang, 2016;Yu et al, 2020;Huang et al, 2020c). However, the efficiency of cooperative behavior of different part in composites are still unclear and needs further studies.…”

Mechanical performances of high‐strength concrete‐filled steel tubular medium–long columns with square cross section

“…Structural concrete is conventional building materials, 1,2 which has been widely used in large span, high tower, heavy load, and other structures and can withstand the effect of earthquake and other adverse conditions 3–5 . Steel pipe concrete structure can better adapt to the high‐level needs of modern engineering structure.…”

“…heavy load, and other structures and can withstand the effect of earthquake and other adverse conditions. [3][4][5] Steel pipe concrete structure can better adapt to the high-level needs of modern engineering structure. The postfire behaviors of tubular steel structures are also investigated, 6,7 and it can also meet the industrial requirements of modern construction technology.…”
