This paper is concerned with the approach to implementing the Penalty function method for imposing multi-freedom constraints in geometrically nonlinear analysis of imperfect trusses based on mixed finite element formulation.Using a finite element model based on displacement formulation, it is required to incorporate both the dependent boundary rela
A large quantity of water is required during the conventional curing methods.This becomes challenging in the areas facing water scarcity and for concreting work in high-rise structures.This work presents a solution for the need for concrete that does not require extra water for curing.In the proposed solution, calcium lignosulfonate in different pe
