This paper addresses a new, unified thermo-mechanical constitutive model for unsaturated soils through a coupled study. In the context of elastoplasticity and the critical state theory, the model uses the concepts of multimechanism and bounding surface the ...
The conservation of historical monuments and especially natural stone masonry arch bridges is an issue which is becoming increasingly important. The prerequisite for any analysis of the load carrying capacity of such stonework is a precise knowledge of its ...
Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) is used in many applications requiring good optical properties, resistance to ageing and resistance to UV irradiation, in spite of its relatively poor mechanical response to impact loading. In order to extend the range of appl ...
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 ...
Ultra-high performance fiber reinforced concrete (UHPFC) is a new class of materials that combine a very strong and dense cementicious matrix with a high fiber content. UHPFC has a very high compressive strength (in the order of 200 MPa) and a relatively l ...
Currently, estimations of the crack width in the deck slab of bridges given by codes of practice are based on either theoretical or empirical approaches considering mainly the monotonic loading behaviour. However, cracking in reinforced tensile members is ...
One of the most important problems in the field of nuclear industry is the relationship between irradiation-induced damage and the resulting induced mechanical response of the target metal and in particular ferritic base steels. In this work the molecular ...
In this paper, the behaviour of the tantalum subjected to a complex range of thermomechanical solicitations is studied and modelled. The objective of this work is the prediction of microstructure evolution of a tantalum part that is cold flow-formed, then ...
One of the most important problems in the field of nuclear industry is the relationship between irradiation-induced damage and the resulting induced mechanical response of the target metal and in particular ferritic base steels. In this work molecular dynam ...
The present work deals with the determination of mechanical properties of materials using instrumented indentation techniques. The main advantage of indentation testing is that it is relatively simple to perform and does not need any special and time-consu ...
