Simulating Cyclic Local Buckling–Induced Softening in Steel Beam-Columns Using a Nonlocal Material Model in Displacement-Based Fiber Elements

Steel beam-columns subjected to cyclic loading (such as during earthquakes) may exhibit local buckling, which results in effective cross-sectional softening and localization of deformation. These phenomena are critical from the standpoint of performance an ...

In situ characterization of work hardening and springback in grade 2 alpha-titanium under tensile load

Helena Van Swygenhoven

Plastic effects during sheet metal forming can lead to undesirable distortions in formed components. Here, the three-stage work hardening and plastic strain recovery ("springback") in a cold-rolled, alpha-phase commercially pure titanium is examined. Inter ...

Influence of geometrical imperfections and flaws at welds of steel liners on fatigue behavior of pressure tunnels and shafts in anisotropic rock

Alexandre Jean Pachoud

The recent development of high-strength (HSS) weldable steels has enlarged the range of design alternatives for the optimization of high-head steel-lined pressure tunnels and shafts (SLPT&S) in the hydropower industry. With the liberalization of the Europe ...

Very high cycle fatigue tests with quenched and self-tempered reinforcement steel bars

Eugen Brühwiler, Alain Nussbaumer, Marina Rocha Pinto Portela Nunes

Investigations on the fatigue strength of steel reinforcement bars (rebars) mainly involves fatigue tests with hot rolled (HR) and cold worked (CW) steels. However, in the last few decades, HR and CW rebars were replaced by quenched and selftempered (QST) ...

Geometrical and material characterisation of quenched and self-tempered steel reinforcement bars

Eugen Brühwiler, Alain Nussbaumer, Marina Rocha Pinto Portela Nunes

Quenched and self-tempered (QST) steel reinforcement bars (rebars) are manufactured by Thermex or Tempcore processes. Characterization studies of QST rebars are mostly limited to reveal the hardened outer layer and some improved mechanical properties compa ...

Microstructural influence on the scatter in the fatigue life of steel reinforcement bars

Eugen Brühwiler, Alain Nussbaumer, Marina Rocha Pinto Portela Nunes

Fatigue damage accumulation and failure of steel reinforcement bars (rebars) is a stochastic process. Scatter can be influenced by the sensitivity of the short crack growth to the microstructural features, especially near the fatigue limit. This work inves ...

Resistance to LTB of steel bridge girders

Jean-Paul Lebet, Raphaël Thiébaud

Lateral torsional buckling (LTB), a complex phenomenon of instability, occurs when a beam is solicited by a bending force. In the area of steel and composite bridges girders which are characterised by slender plate girders, few experimental and theoretical ...

Poinçonnement non symétrique des dalles en béton armé

Luca Tassinari

Punching shear of reinforced concrete flat slabs supported on columns is a failure mode in which the slab fractures around the column. This type of failure is sudden and can be catastrophic in nature. Punching shear generally governs the ultimate limit sta ...

Channel and wedge plasmon modes of metallic V-grooves with finite metal thickness

Olivier Martin

We investigate numerically the effect of a finite metal film thickness on the propagation characteristics of the channel plasmon polariton (CPP) and wedge plasmon polariton (WPP) modes, both in a symmetric and asymmetric environment. We observe that decrea ...

Micro-fabrication of polymeric devices using hot roller embossing

Nico de Rooij

Single panel processing of polymeric microfluidic devices has been widely researched in recent years. However, suitable high throughput roll-to-roll replication methods are still limited. Taking cue from the conventional hot embossing process and roll-to-r ...
