Finite element investigation of stability bracing force demands of steel moment resisting frame columns under cyclic loading

Meriton Beqiraj

This thesis examines the out-of-plane stability bracing of deep wide flange steel columns in moment resisting frames (MRFs) under cyclic loading. This is performed through a detailed continuum finite element analysis including a validation process and a pa ...

Monitoring of Torque Induced Strain in Composite Shafts with Embedded and Surface-Mounted Optical Fiber Bragg Gratings

John Botsis, Georgios Violakis, Georgios Pappas

In this study, silica glass, optical fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) are used for torque-induced strain monitoring in carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) hollow shafts toward the development of a methodology for structural load monitoring. Optical fibers w ...

Study on Mechanical Performance of Prestressed UHPFRC U-Beam Bridges

Eugen Brühwiler

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. ...

A generic non-linear bond-slip model for CFRP composites bonded to concrete substrate using EBR and EBROG techniques

Ardalan Hosseini

In this study, a generic bond-slip model is proposed for carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) reinforcement bonded to concrete substrate. The model is applicable to concrete members strengthened by the conventional externally bonded reinforcement (EBR) t ...
