In modern buildings, glass is increasingly used as a load-carrying material in structural components, such as glass beams. For glass beams especially the edge strength of glass is important. However, the strength of glass is not a material constant but dep ...
Effects of non-uniform strains on tensile fracture of fiber-reinforced ceramic–matrix composites have not been satisfactorily explained by existing mechanics-based models. In this paper, we use an exact model of fiber fragmentation under global load sharin ...
Interdigitated electrodes are common structures in the fields of microelectronics and MEMS. Recent developments in flexible electronics compel an understanding of such structures under bending constraints. In this work, the behavior of interdigitated micro ...
Dendronized polymers consist of an elastic backbone with a set of iterated branch structures (dendrimers) attached at every base point of the backbone. The conformations of such molecules depend on the elastic deformation of the backbone and the branches, ...
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 ...
Deformation is one of the most important phenomena in environmental science and engineering. Deformation of artificial and natural objects happens worldwide, such as structural deformation, landslide, subsidence, erosion, and rockfall. Monitoring and asses ...
The evaluation of running safety of railway vehicles on viaducts requires the study of lateral dynamics for the coupled vehicle-bridge system. This includes the structural deformation of the bridge, the vehicle multibody dynamics, and the consideration of ...
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 ...
Background: The nucleus pulposus is extremely deformable and it is not uncommon to observe strain amplitudes as large as 12.5% in physiological loading conditions. It has been shown that the nucleus pulposus contributes to the damping properties of the int ...
Punching shear reinforcement is an efficient method to increase not only the strength but also the deformation capacity of flat slabs supported by columns. Especially, the increase in deformation capacity is desired so that the load can be distributed to o ...
