Ductility of adhesively bonded timber joints

Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Myrsini Angelidi

In the field of timber engineering, adhesive bonding remains a promising, though poorly developed, joining technique that may increase the structural stiffness and capacity of timber joints and structures. Selecting ductile adhesives may further allow to c ...

Ultra low cycle fatigue of welded steel joints under multiaxial loading

Albano António De Abreu E Presa De Castro E Sousa

Extreme loading scenarios such as earthquakes, exceptional wind gusts or tides are characterized by very high amplitude and multidirectional cyclic loads applied to a structure. Ultra Low Cycle Fatigue (ULCF) arises in such cases and can be summarily defin ...

Ductility and strain rate-dependency of adhesively-bonded timber joints

Myrsini Angelidi

One of the most important characteristics of load-bearing structures is ductility, i.e. the ability of a material or a structure to sustain inelastic deformation prior to failure, without loss of resistance. The topic of this PhD Thesis was to develop duct ...

Post-tensioned glass beams

Jagoda Cupac

Over the last few decades, the application of glass in building construction has extended from small four-side supported windowpanes to areas traditionally reserved for other materials, such as roofs, floors, staircases and full building envelopes. Glass i ...

Relief of edge effects in bi-adhesive composite joints

Seyed Abdolmajid Yousefsani

Three-dimensional thermo-mechanical stress analysis of composite joints with bi-adhesive bonding is presented using the full layerwise theory. Based on three-dimensional elasticity theory, sets of fully coupled governing differential equations are derived ...

Stochastic analysis of clear timber as a structural material

Alireza Farajzadeh Moshtaghin

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 ...

Comparative Study of Post-tensioned Glass Beams with Bonded Tendons

Pieter Christian Louter, Jagoda Cupac

This paper explores the system of laminated annealed glass beams post-tensioned through stainless steel tendons bonded to the lower glass edge. The tendons are first pre-tensioned and then adhesively bonded to the glass. The compressive pre-stress applied ...

Temperature effects on material properties and structural response of polymer matrix composites

Wei Sun

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 ...

UV-cured Epoxy for Adhesion in Steel Reinforced Thermoplastic Composites

Basile Golaz

This work addresses the development of composite materials that contain metallic load-bearing cords with the aim of combining outstanding mechanical performance with added functionality, including electrical conductivity, data transmission, and temperature ...
