The assessment of the shear strength of reinforced concrete beams with and without shear reinforcement is investigated in this paper on the basis of the contribution of the various potential shear-transfer actions. To that aim, a comprehensive experimental ...
Cast-in-place thin layers of Ultra-High Performance Fiber Reinforced Cementitious Composites (UHPFRC) on the specific zones of existing reinforced concrete (RC) bridge decks has been demonstrated to be a technically efficient and economic rehabilitation an ...
For various types of civil structures such as bridges, skyscrapers and other slender towers, oil rigs as well as runaways, dynamic loading is predominant. This holds true especially for bridges where loads have increased considerably in the last hundred ye ...
The objective of this thesis is to improve methods for predicting the fatigue life, multiaxial or not, of mild- and more particularly high-strength steels using local approaches that have the capacity to be applicable to almost any cases, hence the term ge ...
Austenitic stainless steels is used in many components of nuclear power plants, particularly in the pipes of cooling systems. Owing to power transients and to start-ups and shutdowns, these components are subjected to thermo-mechanical loadings (low-cycle ...
In steel moment resisting frames (MRFs) with composite floor slabs, seismic loads are transmitted from the slab into the beam through shear studs. Shear strength degradation of the studs due to cyclic loading results into the loss of the load transfer mech ...
This paper investigates the effects of degassing, curing and post-curing conditions on the tensile quasi-static and fatigue behavior of a cold-curing structural epoxy adhesive. Quasi-static experiments performed at standardized and high displacement rates ...
We study a PDE-constrained optimization problem, where the shape and liner material of the nacelle of an aircraft engine are optimized in order to minimize the noise radiated by the engine. More precisely, the acoustic problem is modeled by the Helmholtz e ...
Until now, the micromechanical wing crack model of Ashby & Sammis 1990 describing the brittle field of rocks has only been used for failure predictions. However, it gives relevant information regarding the crack opening process, so this model is extended t ...
The biaxial flexural fatigue behavior of thin slab elements made of strain-hardening Ultra High Performance Fiber Reinforced Cementitious Composite (UHPFRC) is investigated experimentally by means of the ring-on-ring test method. Fourteen flexural fatigue ...
