SAMARIS D26 - Modelling of UHPFRC in composite structures

The extremely low permeability of Ultra-High Performance Fibre Reinforced Concretes (UHPFRC) associated with their outstanding mechanical properties make them especially suitable to locally "harden" reinforced concrete structures in critical zones subjecte ...

Probabilistic strength prediction for double lap joints composed of pultruded GFRP profiles, part II: Strength prediction

Thomas Keller, Till Vallée

A probabilistic method for the strength prediction of adhesively bonded double lap joints composed of pultruded GFRP adherends subjected to quasi-static axial tensile loading is presented. The prediction method is based on the experimentally determined mat ...

Poinçonnement symétrique des dalles en béton armé

Stefano Guandalini

Punching of reinforced concrete and prestressed slabs is usually a critical failure mode for the design and verification of structures such as flat slabs or bridge slabs. Although codes of practice propose several rules for common cases (usually with an em ...

Computer-Based Development of Stress Fields

Neven Kostic

Computer-aided approaches for the efficient development of suitable stress fields are useful tools for the structural design of concrete structures. The paper describes a new procedure that is used within a previously proposed approach for the automatic ge ...

Buckling and ultimate strength assessment of FPSO structures

Jamie Paik, Haomin Sun, Xiao Wang

Floating production, storage and offloading systems (FPSOs) have been widely used for the development of offshore oil and gas fields because of their attractive features. They are mostly ship-shaped, either converted from existing tankers or purposely buil ...

Large Scale Tests on Bridge Slabs Cantilevers Subjected to Traffic Loads

Aurelio Muttoni, Olivier Burdet, Rui Vaz Rodrigues

To improve the reduced available experimental data on the load capacity of full scale bridge deck slabs, 3 tests on a large scale bridge cantilever (10 x 4.2 m) were done. The cantilevers were tested under 4, 2 and 1 concentrated loads simulating traffic w ...

Principal axes for structural fatigue

Jamie Paik, Xiao Wang

Recent advances in the analysis of joint seakeeping processes are applied to the accumulation of spectral fatigue cycles. The methods of cross co-spectral moments and techniques adopted from the determination of principal angles for seakeeping processes ar ...

Ermüdungsverhalten von Stahlgussknoten in Brücken aus Stahlhohlprofilen

Senta Haldimann

Due to their aesthetic and structural advantages, tubular space truss structures are enjoying increasing popularity in modern bridge construction. The use of cast steel nodes for the joints between the circular hollow section members is also becoming incre ...

Monitoring and modelling of construction materials during hardening

Marco Viviani

During the past decade, the science of concrete behavior has made much progress and many useful results are now incorporated in technical codes such as those governing mix design, quality of mix and post pouring verification. The stage of Very Early Age (V ...

Bone-cement interface of the glenoid component: stress analysis for varying cement thickness

Alexandre Terrier, Alain Farron, Philippe Büchler

BACKGROUND: Although shoulder arthroplasty is an accepted treatment for osteoarthritis, loosening of the glenoid component, which mainly occurs at the bone-cement interface, remains a major concern. Presently, the mechanical effect of the cement mantel thi ...
