Construction Engineering: Fatigue life prediction of adhesively bonded textile composites

A number of construction engineering applications for textiles made of composite materials are presented in this chapter. All these structures were fabricated by connecting several subcomponents, usually by using adhesives. Although composite materials are ...

Chromosome Organization and Replisome Dynamics in Mycobacterium smegmatis

John McKinney, Isabella Santi

Subcellular organization of the bacterial nucleoid and spatiotemporal dynamics of DNA replication and segregation have been studied intensively, but the functional link between these processes remains poorly understood. Here we use quantitative time-lapse ...

Efficient geometrical parametrisation techniques of interfaces for reduced-order modelling: application to fluid-structure interaction coupling problems

Gianluigi Rozza, Davide Forti

We present some recent advances and improvements in shape parametrisation techniques of interfaces for reduced-order modelling with special attention to fluid-structure interaction problems and the management of structural deformations, namely, to represen ...

Active vibration control using self-sensing actuators: an experimental comparison of piezoelectric and electromagnetic technologies

Romain Boulandet

The paper addresses the practical implementation of active vibration control using self-sensing actuators, intending to equip smart structures. The control objective is to reduce the structural vibration of a simply-supported plate subject to time-harmonic ...

Static and fatigue strength of RC slabs under concentrated loads near linear supports

Aurelio Muttoni, Francisco Manuel Maciel Natário

RC slabs without shear reinforcement subjected to c oncentrated loads near lin ear supports are typical cases of deck slabs of bridges, transfer slabs or pile caps. Such elements are often designed or as sessed in shear with code provisions calibrated on ...

Rinforzo di pannelli in muratura con griglie in materiali compositi immerse in matrici cementizie

Angelo Garofano

In the present paper the experimental results of in-plane shear tests on masonry walls subject to cyclic loads under constant axial load and externally strengthened with composite grid embedded in a cementitious matrix are synthetized. The experimental res ...

Effectiveness of composite grids embedded in mortar layers for strengthening of masonry walls

Angelo Garofano

The strengthening method characterized by the application of composite grid reinforced mortar layers onto the surface of masonry walls is a quite new technique and, thus, still requires deep experimental and numerical investigation. This strengthening tech ...

Structural limits of FRP-balsa sandwich decks in bridge construction

Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Julia De Castro San Roman Fest, Michael Osei-Antwi

The span limits of two glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bridge concepts involving GFRP-balsa sandwich plates are discussed. The sandwich plates were either used directly as slab bridges or as decks of a hybrid sandwich-steel girder bridges. In the lat ...

Upscaling of Friction Welding of Wood for structural Applications

Benjamin Hahn

The present work deals with the large-scale application of the friction welding bonding technology on timber. The investigations that are described in the following were carried out on a prototype of a welding machine that was previously developed for the ...
