The constant improvement of polymer composite materials has allowed their integration in many industrial fields where their mechanical and chemical properties are apparently attractive. Mixed metal-composite insulators are now increasingly used for high vo ...
The latest trends in contemporary architecture are fully transparent pavilions: a single storey building free of any steel or concrete frame, where glass panels are used as unique vertical structural elements to support the roof and as wind bracing to stab ...
U-shaped or channel-shaped walls are frequently used as lateral strength providing members in reinforced concrete (RC) buildings since their form does not only provide strength and stiffness in any horizontal direction but is also well suited to accommodat ...
In this paper, we consider the problem of driving a group of agents communicating through an undirected and weighted network towards a consensus point. We assume that agents obey to double-integrator dynamics and study decentralized control schemes for con ...
Currently, there is no generally-accepted theory giving a physical explanation of the shear strength in one- and two-way slabs. Furthermore, for members without transverse reinforcement, shear strength is estimated in most codes of practice following empir ...
This paper presents the theoretical basis and the main results of an analytical model that describes the pre– and post–yield response of bond in reinforced concrete, as well as its influence on the behavior of structural members. The model is based on a nu ...
This thesis comes within the scope of tribology studies at the nanometer scale. The experimental techniques used in this work are essentially related to atomic force microscopy, which gives a direct access to the topography and forces of the studied system ...
A novel mechanical structure design with reduced deflection offset is reported. This design offers a batch processing solution to a well-known problem in the fabrication of very thin crystalline silicon structures, that is initial bending due to anchoring ...
An existing hybrid-GFRP/steel joint for load transfer and thermal insulation in concrete slab structures was developed into an all-GFRP joint. The new joint consists of a pultruded GFRP tensile/shear element anchored through adhesively bonded ribs in the c ...
Satisfactory impregnation of glass fiber mats may be obtained with isotactic polypropylene/montmorillonite (MMT) nanocomposites under conditions comparable with industrial conditions. However, it is demonstrated here that the high melt viscosity of the nan ...
