Scanning Small-Angle X-ray Scattering of Injection-Molded Polymers: Anisotropic Structure and Mechanical Properties of Low-Density Polyethylene

Marianne Liebi, Manuel Guizar Sicairos

Injection molding is known to create a layered anisotropicmorphologyacross the sample thickness due to varying shear and cooling ratesduring the manufacturing process. In this study, scanning small-angleX-ray scattering was used to visualize and quantify t ...

Dissipative Embedded Column Bases for Enhanced Seismic Performance of Steel Moment Resisting Frames

Dimitrios Lignos, Albano António De Abreu E Presa De Castro E Sousa, Hiroyuki Inamasu

This paper presents an innovative design concept for embedded column base (ECB) connections. The developed ECB connection achieves a non-degrading hysteretic response. In the proposed ECB connections, the dissipative zone is shifted into the embedded porti ...

Full Scale Experiments of a Composite Steel Moment Resisting Frame: Behavioral Insights and Implications on Seismic Design

Dimitrios Lignos, Hammad El Jisr

This paper discusses the cyclic performance of a heavily instrumented 2-bay full-scale composite-steel moment resisting frame (CMRF) sub-system from the onset of structural damage up until incipient collapse. The CMRF featured stiffened end plate bolted co ...

Development of dissipative embedded columns base connections for mitigating column axial shortening

Dimitrios Lignos, Albano António De Abreu E Presa De Castro E Sousa, Hiroyuki Inamasu

This paper proposes an innovative design concept for embedded column base (ECB) connections featuring wide flange steel columns. The developed ECB connection achieves a non-degrading hysteretic response up to lateral drift demands associated with low proba ...

Cyclic metal plasticity model parameters with limited information: a constrained optimization approach

Dimitrios Lignos, Albano António De Abreu E Presa De Castro E Sousa, Alexander Riley Hartloper

Tensile test data for structural steels are ubiquitous. Yet, the information monotonic loading provides with respect to the material's characteristics is limited. Notably, features of inelastic response to cyclic loading, such as the Bauschinger eect, can ...

Tensile response of Ultra High Performance PE Fiber Reinforced Concretes (PE-UHPFRC) under imposed shrinkage deformations

Emmanuel Denarié, Mohamed Abdul Hafiz, Amir Hajiesmaeili

PE-UHPFRC is a new Ultra High-Performance Fiber Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC), which is developed to reduce the environmental impact of conventional UHPFRC by replacing the steel fibers with synthetic ones and reducing the clinker content in the mix. The de ...

Giant hardening response in AlMgZn(Cu) alloys

William Curtin, Daniel John Gilles Marchand

This study presents a thermomechanical processing concept which is capable of exploiting the full industrial application potential of recently introduced AlMgZn(Cu) alloys. The beneficial linkage of alloy design and processing allows not only to satisfy th ...

Deformational behavior and damage mechanism of R-UHPFRC beam subjected to fatigue loading

Eugen Brühwiler, Bartlomiej Wojciech Sawicki, Antoine Bassil

The fatigue behavior of a reinforced UHPFRC (Ultra High Performance Fiber Reinforced Cementitious composite) T-shaped beam under four-point bending is investigated. The beam was subjected to a fatigue loading range equal to 49% of the static resistance and ...
