The Influence of Loading Path on Fault Reactivation:a Laboratory Perspective

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, Carolina Giorgetti

The loading path the fault experiences is often neglected when evaluating its potential for reactivation and the related seismic risk. However, stress history affects fault zone compaction and dilation, and thus its mechanics. Therefore, in incohesive faul ...

Comportement des éléments en béton armé fléchis sous charge cyclique

For various types of civil structures such as bridges, skyscrapers and other slender towers, oil rigs as well as runaways, dynamic loading is predominant. This holds true especially for bridges where loads have increased considerably in the last hundred ye ...

Seismic Behavior of Pine Flat Concrete Gravity Dam Using Microplane Damage-Plasticity Model

Giovanni De Cesare, Pedro Filipe De Almeida Manso, Samuel Luke Vorlet

The response of concrete gravity dams under seismic loads is a major concern of dam safety assessment in earthquake-prone areas. This study focuses on the seismic analysis of the tallest non-overflow monolith of Pine Flat Dam. The paper presents results of ...

Thermomechanical characterization of a balsa-wood-veneer structural sandwich core material at elevated temperatures

Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Chao Wu, Niloufar Vahedi

The tensile, compressive and shear behavior of standardized specimens cut from a veneered balsa wood used as structural sandwich core was investigated at ambient temperatures of up to 250 degrees C. The average moisture content was 9.1%. The specimens' res ...

Linebacker: Preserving Victim Cache Lines in Idle Register Files of GPUs

Yunho Oh

Modern GPUs suffer from cache contention due to the limited cache size that is shared across tens of concurrently running warps. To increase the per-warp cache size prior techniques proposed warp throttling which limits the number of active warps. Warp thr ...

Synthesis and Testing of Minimum Energy Adaptive Structures

Gennaro Senatore

This paper presents the formulation of a new methodology to design adaptive structures. This design method synthesises structuralconfigurations that are optimum hybrids between a passive and an active structure. An optimisation scheme searches for an optim ...

Experimental investigation of beams under coupled bending and torsion

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Nicolas Robin Montagne, Olivier Baverel

The design of doubly-curved systems called for innovative modelling techniques to evaluate the final geometry of the structure. They can simulate the behaviour of beams under large displacements. Even though it is never analysed, the deformation path is ca ...

Adaptive numerical method algorithms for nonlinear viscous and bilinear oil damper models subjected to dynamic loading

Dimitrios Lignos

Adaptive numerical method algorithms are presented for the numerical simulation of the hysteretic behaviour of nonlinear viscous and bilinear oil dampers within a finite element program for nonlinear dynamic analysis of frame structures under earthquake ex ...
