Drift-based and dual-parameter fragility curves for concentrically braced frames in seismic regions

Dimitrios Lignos

This paper discusses the development of drift-based and dual-parameter fragility curves for steel braces as part of concentrically braced frames designed in seismic regions. The experimental results from 24 different research programs are compiled into a d ...

Bonded fiber reinforced polymers (FRPs) reinforcement systems have traditionally been found to be an efficient method for improving the lifespan of fatigued metallic structures and have attracted much research attention. Nevertheless, the performance of a ...

Poinçonnement non symétrique des dalles en béton armé

Luca Tassinari

Punching shear of reinforced concrete flat slabs supported on columns is a failure mode in which the slab fractures around the column. This type of failure is sudden and can be catastrophic in nature. Punching shear generally governs the ultimate limit sta ...

Modeling the Structural Response of Reinforced Glass Beams using an SLA Scheme

Pieter Christian Louter

This paper investigates whether a novel computational sequentially linear analysis (SLA) technique, which is especially developed for modeling brittle material response, is applicable for modeling the structural response of metal reinforced glass beams. To ...

Structural implications of ultra-high performance fibre-reinforced concrete in bridge design

Ana Spasojevic

The present research represents a theoretical and experimental contribution to the understanding of the structural behaviour of elements made of ultra-high performance fibre-reinforced concrete (UHPFRC). UHPFRC is investigated as an advanced cementitious m ...

Shear strength of reinforced concrete bridge deck slabs

Rui Vaz Rodrigues

Reinforced concrete bridge deck slabs without shear reinforcement can be subjected to concentrated or distributed loads of important magnitude. Under these loads their structural response is not always ductile. In particular under concentrated loads their ...

Fiber reinforced polypropylene nanocomposites

Chrystèle Houphouet-Boigny Favre

The aim of this thesis is to assess the feasibility of integrating nanoparticles into glass fiber (GF) reinforced isotactic polypropylene (iPP) composites via existing thermoplastic processing routes, and to investigate whether this results in significant ...

Comportement structural des bétons de fibres ultra performants en traction dans des éléments composés

John Wuest

Ultra high performance concretes (UHPFRC) are characterized by a dense matrix and a high fibre content. These materials exhibit exceptional mechanical and durability properties making them an ideal material for rehabilitating existing structures. The prima ...

Seismic behavior of lightly reinforced concrete squat shear walls

Christian Greifenhagen

This thesis addresses the seismic evaluation of existing buildings. In particular, it focuses on the seismic behavior of lightly reinforced shear walls that are not designed to withstand earthquake actions. A shear strength envelope for the assessment of d ...

Shear strength of URM walls retrofitted using FRP

Pierino Lestuzzi, Marc Badoux, Mohamed Elgawady

This paper compares different models currently used to calculate the shear strength of unreinforced masonry (URM) walls retrofitted using fiber reinforced polymers (URM-FRP). The shear strengths of six recently tested URM-FRP walls were compared to shear s ...
