Modelling Workflow for Segmented Timber Shells using Wood-wood Connections.

Yves Weinand, Julien Gamerro, Petras Vestartas, Nicolas Henry Pierre Louis Rogeau

This paper presents a modelling method based on planarization for double-curved segmented timber shell made from quad polygons and assembled by wood-wood connections. The inspiration is taken from timber dome structures, where solid timber walls were built ...

Load history effects in fibre-reinforced polymer composite materials

Abdolvahid Movahedirad

Today, it is widely accepted that fatigue is one of the most common failure mechanisms in structural components, and pure static failure is rarely observed. Engineering structures are subjected to complex mechanical fatigue loading histories, which cause d ...

Behavior of prestressed CFRP plates bonded to steel substrate: Numerical modeling and experimental validation

Ardalan Hosseini, Masoud Motavalli, Elyas Ghafoori

In recent years, retrofitting of steel structures has emerged as a major issue in structural engineering and construction management. As the adhesive bond is often the critical aspect controlling the actual performance of steel profiles externally strength ...

Two-dimensional quasi-static debonding in GFRP/balsa sandwich panels

Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Aida Cameselle Molares

The two-dimensional (2D) debonding behavior of GFRP/balsa sandwich panels presenting embedded circular disbonds at the face sheet/core interface was experimentally investigated. The bottom of the panels was fixed and out-of-plane quasi-static tensile loads ...

A comparative study of mode I delamination behavior of unidirectional glass fiber-reinforced polymers with epoxy and polyurethane matrices using two methods

John Botsis, Georgios Pappas

The mode I delamination behavior of a unidirectional glass-fiber reinforced polymer with a prototype elasto-plastic polyurethane matrix (GF/PU) was investigated and compared with that of glass/epoxy (GF/EP) using double cantilever beam specimens. Fracture ...

Fatigue life prediction under realistic loading conditions

Anastasios Vassilopoulos

The accurate modeling of the fatigue behavior of composite materials under constant amplitude (CA) cyclic stress is in itself a difficult task but when loading is of variable amplitude (VA), the situation is even more complicated since an appropriate damag ...

Microstructured Multimaterial Fibers for Microfluidic Sensing

Fabien Sorin, Wei Yan, Alexis Gérald Page, Dang Tùng Nguyen, Chaoqun Dong

The thermal drawing of a uniform capillary-like fiber that integrates an encapsulated microchannel and an embedded capacitor system within a polymeric cladding is demonstrated. Such a fiber construct has versatile functionalities applicable to microfluidic ...

Performance assessment of through-tenon timber joints under tension loads

Yves Weinand, Aryan Rezaei Rad, Henry V. Burton

This paper aims to characterize the force-deformation response of through-tenon wood-wood connections subjected to tensile loads. Four beech LVL timber specimen groups with variations in the fiber orientation, and the tab insertion angle (45°, and 60°) are ...
