Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.

Embodied Carbon Premium for Cantilevers

David Michael Volpe Ruggiero, Paola Costanza Miglietta

This study addresses the critical need for sustainable architectural designs within the context of climate change and the significant role the built environment plays in greenhouse gas emissions. The focus of this paper is on understanding the influence of ...

A Simple, Closed-Form Method for Determining the Superelevation of Tall Reinforced Concrete Buildings

David Michael Volpe Ruggiero, Paola Costanza Miglietta

The vertical shortening of tall buildings is not negligible, and it is important to account for these deformations to minimize differential movement and ensure that the finished building is level. Compensation via superelevation is common in reinforced con ...

The General Crack Component Model for reversed cyclic shear

David Michael Volpe Ruggiero

A growing body of research has shown that reversed cyclic shear loading of reinforced concrete (RC) causes effects that are not accounted for in monotonic behavioral models. Notable among these effects are a reduction in shear strength and significant plas ...

Towards the development of direct crack-based assessment of structures

David Michael Volpe Ruggiero

Much of the post-war reinforced and prestressed concrete infrastructure in North America and Europe is reaching its design life and engineers are in need of tools that can be used to assess the shear behavior of these structures. The Compression Field Theo ...

2018

In order to meet desired seismic performances, it is increasingly evident that engineers require reliable methods for the estimation of seismic demands on both structural and non-structural elements. To this end, current design codes incorporate simplified ...

2017

A series of three shear panels with transverse reinforcing ratios ranging from 0.23 to 0.68% were tested to failure under reversed cyclic loading. All of the tests showed a reduction in strength of at least 20% with respect to predictions from reliable mon ...

2016

As the desire for high performance buildings increases, a number of solutions to enhance the dynamic response of structures have been explored and implemented. In recent years, base isolation has become a practical and effective strategy for earthquake res ...

2015

The goal of the presented research is to experimentally investigate the influence of reversed-cyclic pure shear loading on the behaviour of reinforced-concrete elements, and to formulate simple analytical models which capture the defining features of non-m ...
