Analytical determination of safety in glass structures often uses oversimplified resistance criteria or fully probabilistic models which require special software to numerically solve the complex equations. Due to computation cost and remaining uncertainty ...
This paper presents a computer-aided environment aimed at assisting designers during the very first stages of the structural design process. It gives designers the opportunity to build and modify interactively geometric constraints that control the structu ...

Metamorphic InxAl1-xAs buffer design influence on electrophysical and structural properties of the MHEMT nanoheterostructures was investigated. Electrophysical properties of the nanoheterostructures were characterized by Hall measurements, while the struc ...
Structural designers often face the challenge of developing forms optimal for a broad range of requirements, but inefficient in terms of structural behavior. In these cases, bending moments often occur under normal loading, resulting in oversized, inelegan ...
In this paper, a method for predicting the evolution of fatigue deterioration of structural components using continuum mechanics numerical simulation is presented. At a first stage, prediction will be limited to the evaluation of the end of the initiation ...
As a part of the Broader Approach activities, R&D on blanket related materials, reduced-activation ferritic martensitic (RAFM) steels as a structural material, SiCf/SiC composites for flow channel insert in the liquid blanket and/or use as advanced structu ...
The Caisse Centrale d’Allocations Familiales de la Région Parisienne (or CCAFRP, shortened to CAF) was built between 1953 and 1959 as regional headquarters of a new post-war agency, the Central Fund for Family Allowance. Designed by French architects Raymo ...
A theoretical stochastic approach is presented for the structural analysis of plunge pool liners dynamically loaded by the impact of free-falling jets. Such an approach was used as the real behaviour of plunge pool liners is complex, and deterministic meth ...
We report on the synthesis, characterization and application of a novel nanocomposite made of a negative tone epoxy based photoresist modified with organic-capped Fe2O3 nanocrystals (NCs). The mechanical properties of the nanocomposite drastically improve ...
