Influence of model uncertainty and long term deformations in action effects calculation in reinforced concrete structures

Xhemsi Malja

Most codes of practice adopt a semi probabilistic design approach for the dimensioning and assessment of structures. Accordingly, structural safety is ensured by performing limit state verifications using design values determined with adequately calibrated ...

Engineering of Existing Structures: The Need and Place for Non-destructive Evaluation

Eugen Brühwiler, Numa Joy Bertola, Thomas Schumacher

Structural engineers today are still educated mainly to design new structures. This ignores the fact that structures already exist and need to be maintained. Students are thus often ill-equipped to deal with maintenance and preservation of existing structu ...

Synthesis of Four-Membered BN3 Heterocycles by the Borylation of Triazenes

Rosario Scopelliti, Kay Severin, Abdusalom Suleymanov

Borylated triazenes were synthesized by the dehydrocoupling of triazenes with 9-borabicyclo(3.3.1)nonane, by the condensation of triazenes with BEt3, or by the reaction of sodium triazenides with dialkyl- or diarylboron halides. The structures of the produ ...

Physics-Inspired Structural Representations for Molecules and Materials

Michele Ceriotti, Félix Benedito Clément Musil, Andrea Grisafi

The first step in the construction of a regression model or a data-driven analysis, aiming to predict or elucidate the relationship between the atomic-scale structure of matter and its properties, involves transforming the Cartesian coordinates of the atom ...

AMER CHEMICAL SOC2021

The forms of U-shaped UHPFRC beams have not been investigated for the highway footbridge. Compared with the traditional section forms, the U-shaped UHPFRC beams can reduce the material consumption under the condition of providing the same bearing capacity. ...

Towards the use of UHPFRC in railway bridges: the rehabilitation of Buna Bridge

Eugen Brühwiler, Dragan Damjanovic

In the last decade, Ultra High Performance Fibre Reinforced cement-based Composites (UHPFRC) have been increasingly implemented for rehabilitation and strengthening purposes, rendering outstanding results. The ease of application, along with their superior ...

CRC PRESS-TAYLOR & FRANCIS GROUP2019

The construction industry is the largest consumer of raw materials and most of the environmental impacts of structures are embodied into load-bearing systems [1]. Civil structures are usually designed to meet strength and deformation requirements to withst ...

X-Shell Pavilion: A Deployable Elastic Rod Structure

Mark Pauly, Florin Isvoranu, Francis Julian Panetta, Tian Chen, Etienne Bouleau

We present the X-Shell pavilion, a lightweight structure composed of elastic beam elements joined in a special layout that allows easy on-site deployment. The structure’s undeployed assembly configuration lies mostly flat and is easy to build, consisting o ...

An Automatic, Data-Driven Definition of Atomic-Scale Structural Motifs

Piero Gasparotto

Structure-property relationships at the atomic scale are usually understood in terms of recurrent structural motifs formed by atoms and molecules, and how they transform and interact with each other. We introduce with this thesis a novel analysis approach, ...

Fatigue Study of the Linthkanal-Brücke

As fatigue cracks were discovered under the bridge deck of the 48 years old railway bridge Linthkanal-Brücke, located near the Ziegelbrücke town in Switzerland, a few studies were conducted to understand the mechanism behind the cracks formation. However, ...
