Partial safety factor format for the resistance of structural concrete considering multiple failure modes

Aurelio Muttoni, Qianhui Yu, Miguel Fernández Ruiz

In this paper, the applicability of the Partial Safety Factor Format (PSFF) of EN1992-1-1:2004 (Eurocode 2 for Concrete Structures) to the reliability verification of structural concrete resistance involving multiple failure modes is investigated. This is ...

Environmental impacts and decarbonization strategies in the cement and concrete industries

Karen Scrivener, Aurélie Rosine Favier

The use of cement and concrete, among the most widely used man-made materials, is under scrutiny. Owing to their large-scale use, production of cement and concrete results in substantial emission of greenhouse gases and places strain on the availability of ...

Markov cubature rules for polynomial processes

Damir Filipovic, Martin Larsson, Sergio Andres Pulido Nino

We study discretizations of polynomial processes using finite state Markov processes satisfying suitable moment matching conditions. The states of these Markov processes together with their transition probabilities can be interpreted as Markov cubature rul ...

Polynomial Escape-Time From Saddle Points In Distributed Non-Convex Optimization

Ali H. Sayed, Stefan Vlaski

The diffusion strategy for distributed learning from streaming data employs local stochastic gradient updates along with exchange of iterates over neighborhoods. In this work we establish that agents cluster around a network centroid in the mean-fourth sen ...

Study of the Propagation of Common Mode IEMI Signals Through Concrete Walls

Marcos Rubinstein, Nicolas Mora Parra, Gaspard Lugrin

In this paper, a model to analyze the propagation of intentional electromagnetic interferences disturbances along penetrating conductors into concrete walls is proposed. The model is based on the transmission line theory and considers the attenuation of th ...

TCHo: A Code-Based Cryptosystem

Serge Vaudenay, Alexandre Raphaël Duc

TCHo is a public-key cryptosystem based on the hardness of finding a multiple polynomial with low weight and on the hardness of distinguishing between the output of an LFSR with noise and some random source. An early version was proposed in 2006 by Finiasz ...

Concrete, from archeology to invention 1700-1769

Roberto Gargiani

The reemergence in the early eighteenth century of the technology and use of concrete provide the starting point for this first volume of the Treatise on Concrete. In this book are described and analyzed, for the first time, the various contributions that ...

Determination of depolarization temperature of (Bi1/2Na1/2)TiO3-based lead-free piezoceramics

Dragan Damjanovic

The depolarization temperature T-d of piezoelectric materials is an important figure of merit for their application at elevated temperatures. Until now, there are several methods proposed in the literature to determine the depolarization temperature of pie ...
