The automatic generation of elastic-plastic stress fields (EPSF) for structural concrete members by means of the finite element method has been demonstrated as a suitable approach for the design and assessment of D regions. This methodology allows accounti ...
Structural components used in civil engineering applications are often subjected to compressive loads. Unlike the tensile strength of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) materials, their compressive strength is resin-dominated, exhibiting lower values and more ...
This article presents a new mechanical model for the non-linear force-displacement response of unreinforced masonry (URM) walls developing a flexural rocking mode including their displacement capacity. The model is based on the plane section hypothesis and ...
Despite the fact that displacement-based methods are now frequently applied when assessing the seismic performance of unreinforced masonry (URM) structures, the displacement capacity of in-plane loaded URM piers is still estimated from empirical rather tha ...
The present paper proposes an improved design of conventional steel braces (CBBs). CBBs are characterized by intense mid-length local buckling that leads to early fracture, limited post-yielding stiffness, and provide very large strength and stiffness. In ...
Rocks in underground projects at great depth, which are under high static stresses, may be subjected to dynamic disturbance at the same time. In our previous work (Li et al. Int J Rock Mech Min Sci 45(5):739–748, 2008), the dynamic compressive behaviour of ...
The Paul-Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion includes the intermediate principal stress sigma(II) and friction angles at the limiting stress states of sigma(II)= sigma(III) and sigma(II) = sigma(I), where sigma(I) and sigma(III) are major and minor principal st ...
Tensile strength of structural glass elements is highly influenced by flaws. For this paper, the study concentrates on the fracture origin i.e. the critical flaw, situated at the edge of a glass element. In the current study the influence of two different ...
Wood/timber has been widely used for house and bridge construction. It is a widely available natural material that necessitates low energy for the production, following simple processes. The environmentally friendliness, together with the low cost of raw m ...
In cognition, audition and somatosensation, performance correlates strongly between different tasks suggesting the existence of common factors. Surprisingly, this does not hold true for vision. For example, Vernier acuity and Gabor detection correlate very ...
