Ultra-high performance fibre reinforced concrete (UHPFC) is a high performance construction material, coupling strength, ductility and compacity. Up to the present time, its mechanical properties have been widely studied, but design approaches and structur ...
Proceedings of the 6th Int. Ph.D. Symposium in Civil Engineering, Zurich 20062006
Structural R/C cores are a popular and efficient choice as lateral-load resisting system in medium to tall buildings. The walls of the cores typically present large openings providing access to elevators placed within them. Shear induced by lateral forces ...
The present research represents a theoretical and experimental contribution to the understanding of the structural behaviour of elements made of ultra-high performance fibre-reinforced concrete (UHPFRC). UHPFRC is investigated as an advanced cementitious m ...
The concepts of WFSTs are summarised, including structural and stochastic optimisations. A typical composition process for ASR is described. Some experiments show that care should be taken with silence models. ...
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 ...
This paper presents a heuristic for supporting the transition from material flow analysis to material flow management. The heuristic combines material flow analysis with a newly developed method, structural agent analysis (SAA). The latter is based on Gidd ...
Tensegrities are spatial, reticulated and lightweight structures that are increasingly investigated as structural solutions for active and deployable structures. Tensegrity systems are composed only of axially loaded elements providing opportunities for ac ...
We present an empirical study that illustrates the potential of dual eye-tracking to detect successful understanding and social processes during pair programming. The gaze of forty pairs of programmers was recorded during a program understanding task. An a ...
Bei der genieteten Rheinbrücke in Eglisau wurde über einen Zeitraum von einem Jahr ein Monitoring durchgeführt. Die mittels Rainflow-Analyse ausgewerteten Messwerte dienten als Grundlage für den Nachweis der Ermüdungssicherheit. Die Messquerschnitte sind i ...
Fatigue safety of riveted bridges Part 2: Verification based on the monitoring data of the project "Railway Bridge at Eglisau". Long term monitoring over one year has been conducted on the riveted Railway Bridge over the Rhine at Eglisau. Measured values w ...
