An experimental and theoretical investigation of the shear strength of reinforced concrete slabs without shear reinforcement is under way at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne. The first part of the program consists of 6 tests on two large scale ...
6th International PhD Symposium in Civil Engineering, IBK Publikation SP-0152006
A method to predict the strength of adhesively bonded single and double lap joints from pultruded GFRP composite adherends subjected to quasi-static axial tensile loading is presented. The method is based on a quadratic through- thickness shear-tensile int ...
This paper compares different models currently used to calculate the shear strength of unreinforced masonry (URM) walls retrofitted using fiber reinforced polymers (URM-FRP). The shear strengths of six recently tested URM-FRP walls were compared to shear s ...
A series of 16 specimens of concrete web panels 23.6 x 23.6 x 4.9 in. (600 x 600 x 125 mm) was tested in compression to investigate the effect of the presence of various types of post-tensioning ducts on the strength of the shear-induced compression struts ...
A probabilistic method for the strength prediction of adhesively bonded double lap joints composed of pultruded GFRP adherends subjected to quasi-static axial tensile loading is presented. The prediction method is based on the experimentally determined mat ...
BACKGROUND: Although shoulder arthroplasty is an accepted treatment for osteoarthritis, loosening of the glenoid component, which mainly occurs at the bone-cement interface, remains a major concern. Presently, the mechanical effect of the cement mantel thi ...
Current models of the elasto-plastic behaviour of unsaturated soils contain important underlying assumptions that have not been tested due to a lack of adequate experimental data. To address this issue, the objective of this paper is to provide a comprehen ...
We study by means of ab initio calculations the ideal tensile and shear strengths of the C-46 clathrate phase. While its bulk modulus and elastic constants are smaller than in diamond, its strength is found to be in all directions larger than the critical ...
The importance of Fibre Reinforced Polymers (FRPs) as a material used for civil engineering purposes has grown in the last decade. Especially the introduction of pultrusion at an industrial level as a way to produce big batches of FRP made it possible to o ...
Physical properties including the equation of state, elasticity, and shear strength of pyrite have been measured by a series of X-ray diffraction in diamond-anvil cells at pressures up to 50 GPa. A Birch-Murnaghan equation of state fit to the quasi hydrost ...
