Development of a numerical model to assess the influence of fluid-structure interactions on the dynamic behavior of geomembrane systems in pressure waterways
The need to maintain and expand hydraulic structures is a major challenge for the coming energy transition, especially in Western countries. One technique already widespread allowing to meet these issues consists in the use of geomembranes to overcome prob ...
2023Studies on the mechanical evolution of compacted bentonite subjected to environmental actions
Deep geological disposal is currently the most feasible option for the long-term isolation of radioactive waste, consisting in emplacing the waste into tunnels or drifts excavated at great depths in suitable geological formations. The use of bentonite, a h ...
EPFL2021A mechanical approach for the maximum punching resistance of shear-reinforced slab-column connections
Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, João Tiago Ramos Bernardo de Santa Rita Simões, Diego Hernández Fraile
The use of punching shear reinforcement is currently considered as one of the most convenient practices to enhance the punching shear strength and deformation capacity of slab-column connections in flat slabs. Intensive research has been performed in the l ...
