Response of RC panels accounting for crack development and its interaction with rebars

Filip Niketic, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Eckart Hars

The response of reinforced concrete (RC) elements subjected to in-plane shear and axial stresses is governed by various potential failure mechanisms. For structural panels subjected to uniform stress states, their ultimate strength can be governed by yield ...

Velocity shear, turbulent saturation, and steep plasma gradients in the scrape-off layer of inner-wall limited tokamaks

Paolo Ricci, Federico David Halpern

The narrow power decay-length (lambda(q)), recently found in the scrape-off layer (SOL) of inner-wall limited (IWL) discharges in tokamaks, is studied using 3D, flux-driven, global two-fluid turbulence simulations. The formation of the steep plasma profile ...

Atomistic simulations of dislocation behavior in a model FCC multicomponent concentrated solid solution alloy

Satish I Rao

In this work, molecular statics and molecular dynamics simulations of a/2 < 110 > dislocation behavior for a model FCC Co30Fe16.67Ni36.67Ti16.67 alloy are discussed. It is shown that the single FCC phase is elastically stable in this alloy. Local stacking ...

Scaling for hard-sphere colloidal glasses near jamming

Eric DeGiuli

Hard-sphere colloids are model systems in which to study the glass transition and universal properties of amorphous solids. Using covariance matrix analysis to determine the vibrational modes, we experimentally measure here the scaling behavior of the dens ...

A new strain rate dependent continuum framework for Mg alloys

Magnesium (Mg) alloys have recently been put under the spotlight for their specific strength, the highest among structural metals. Although the mechanical behaviour of Mg alloys at quasi-static strain rates has been extensively modelled in the recent years ...

Effect of service temperature on the shear creep response of rigid polyurethane foam used in composite sandwich floor panels

Thomas Keller, Mário Alexandre De Jesus Garrido

This paper presents an experimental and analytical study about the effect of temperature on the shear creep response of a rigid polyurethane (PUR) foam within the scope of sandwich panel application in building floors. Shear creep tests were carried out on ...

Second-order sensitivity of parallel shear flows and optimal spanwise-periodic flow modifications

François Gallaire, Edouard Boujo, Andrea Fani

The question of optimal spanwise-periodic modification for the stabilisation of spanwise-invariant flows is addressed. A second-order sensitivity analysis is conducted for the linear temporal stability of parallel flows U-0 subject to small-amplitude spanw ...

Parameterization of bottom mixed layer and logarithmic layer heights in central Lake Erie

Damien Bouffard

The bottom boundary layer in lakes lies directly above the sediments and influences both hydrodynamic processes and biogeochemical fluxes. Several parameter-based models have been developed to predict the boundary layer characteristics, but the relative ac ...

Theory of the jamming transition at finite temperature

Matthieu Wyart, Eric DeGiuli

A theory for the microscopic structure and the vibrational properties of soft sphere glass at finite temperature is presented. With an effective potential, derived here, the phase diagram and vibrational properties are worked out around the Maxwell critica ...

Thermoelasticity of Fe2+-bearing bridgmanite

Matteo Cococcioni, Andrea Floris

We present local density approximation augmented by the Hubbard-type correction calculations of high-temperature elastic properties of bridgmanite with composition (Mg(1-x)Fex2+)SiO3 for 0
