This paper presents the results of six tests on R/C bridge cantilever slabs without shear reinforcement subjected to concentrated loading. The specimens represent actual deck slabs of box-girder bridges scaled 3/4. They were 10mlong with a clear cantilever ...
Crack onset strain measurements of a confined layer in tension provide the means for layer toughness estimation. The procedure can be simplified if steady-state conditions prevail starting from the commencement of crack propagation, an assumption frequentl ...
Herein, we study the microstructuring of toluene-vapor-softened polystyrene surfaces with nonsolvent sessile droplets. Arrays of microvessels are obtained by depositing non-evaporating droplets of ethylene glycol/water on the original polystyrene surfaces ...
Research interest in the thermo-mechanical behaviour of soils is growing as a result of an increasing number of geomechanical problems involving thermal effects. This paper concerns the constitutive modelling of non- isothermal mechanical behaviour of clay ...
Research interest in the thermo-mechanical behaviour of unsaturated soils is growing as a result of an increasing number of geomechanical problems involving both thermal and unsaturated effects. A new constitutive model dealing with partially saturated soi ...
The aim of this thesis is to provide rational engineering methods for the fatigue safety examination of existing railway bridges. Increasing railway traffic loading and enhanced structural analysis allow for higher exploitation of the capacity of bridge el ...
he reduced basis (RB) methods are proposed here for the solution of parametrized equations in linear elasticity problems. The fundamental idea underlying RB methods is to decouple the generation and projection stages (offline/online computational procedure ...
A critical aspect in the design of tubular bridges is the fatigue performance of the structural joints. Economic viability depends on it. Lower fatigue strength for joints with thicker failing members was observed in welded joints typical to the bridge app ...
The fracture toughness of thin metal films confined between elastic layers, a geometry prevalent in electronic packaging applications, is found to depend strongly on the metal film thickness and on residual stress. Here, a two-dimensional discrete dislocat ...
Interventional radiologists manipulate guidewires and catheters and steer stents through the patient’s vascular system under X-ray imaging for treatment of vascular diseases. The complexity of these procedures makes trainingmandatory in order to master han ...
