Seismic assessment of unreinforced masonry structures remains a challenge. This dissertation investigates the in-plane behavior of historical masonry elements and proposes an advanced simulation method based on the cohesive zone model (CZM) in a finite ele ...
Experimental evidence shows that the chemical composition of the liquid inside the pores and its variation over time can have significant implications on the mechanical and hydraulic behavior of clayey geomaterials. The magnitude of these implications depe ...
Snowslab avalanches start with the failure of a weak snow layer buried below a cohesive snow slab. After failure,the very porous character of the weak layer leads toits volumetric collapse and thus closing of crack facesdue to the weight of the overlaying ...
Orbitally shaken bioreactors (OSRs) are commonly used for the cultivation of mammalian cells in suspension. Here we conducted a three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation to characterize the fluid field in the disposable 600-mL orbital ...
As an extension of the isotropic setting presented in the companion paper Agoritsas et al (2019 J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 52 144002), we consider the Langevin dynamics of a many-body system of pairwise interacting particles in d dimensions, submitted to an ...
We consider the Langevin dynamics of a many-body system of interacting particles in d dimensions, in a very general setting suitable to model several out-of-equilibrium situations, such as liquid and glass rheology, active self-propelled particles, and gla ...
Hydraulic fracturing is frequently used in the oil and gas industry to increase the permeability of rocks. Its application for Enhanced Geothermal Systems still faces many challenges such as the occurrence of induced seismicity and the difficulty to collec ...
A novel approach which combines isogeometric collocation and an equilibriumbased stress recovery technique is applied to analyze laminated composite plates. Isogeometric collocation is an appealing strong form alternative to standard Galerkin approaches, a ...
This paper presents a double-structure elastoplastic constitutive model that can describe the hydromechanical behavior of compacted bentonite. The model is formulated based on a new developed double-structure hydromechanical framework that consists of four ...
Owing to the lack of a comprehensive published procedure for the design of stiffened extended shear tabs, practicing engineers usually follow design guides for unstiffened shear tabs. The results of recent laboratory experiments and numerical analyses have ...
