Assessing the compressive strength of concrete under sustained actions: From refined models to simple design expressions

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Darko Tasevski

The detrimental influence of high levels of sustained load on the compressive strength of concrete has been acknowledged and investigated since the 1950s. Despite the potential significance of this phenomenon in many situations, current design codes still ...

Creep effects on tension-tension fatigue behavior of angle-ply GFRP composite laminates

Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Abdolvahid Movahedirad

Angle-ply (±45)2S glass/epoxy composite specimens have been subjected to pure creep and tension-tension constant amplitude fatigue loading interrupted at max by creep intervals lasting for 2 or 48 hours in order to examine the effects of creep loading on ...

Fatigue safety verification of a steel railway bridge using short term monitoring data

Eugen Brühwiler, Bartlomiej Wojciech Sawicki, Mariia Nesterova

The case study of the fatigue safety examination of the 120 years old steel riveted bridge carrying a single railway track on two main girders is presented. The overall assessment according to the Swiss Standard SIA 269 for existing structures indicated su ...

Anisotropic behaviour of shallow opalinus clay

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Eleonora Crisci, Alberto Minardi

Opalinus Clay shale, the selected host geomaterial of a high-level radioactive waste repository in Switzerland, was sourced at shallow depth in a borehole in the northern part of the country. Pairs of specimens, retrieved from the same depth were prepared ...

Corrosion Mechanisms of Diamond-like Carbon Coated Interlayers & Interfaces

Emilija Ilic

Diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings can improve the wear resistance of articulating implants. However despite successful in-vitro testing, some DLC coated joint replacements had to be revised prematurely, mainly due to coating delamination induced by corros ...

Effects of load interruption on the fatigue life of GFRP composites

Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Abdolvahid Movahedirad

The effect of cyclic loading interruption on the fatigue behavior of angle-ply (±45)2S glass/epoxy composite laminates was investigated by comparing the obtained results of continuous- and interrupted loading patterns. Continuous fatigue experiments were p ...
