Sensitivity study on accuracy and relevant parameters in numerical modeling of internal tendon breaks

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the numerical modeling of internal tendon breaks in prestressed concrete structures and evaluates the key parameters affecting accuracy. A combined approach is followed, involving global sensitivity analysis via the Elementary Effects Method and subsequent model calibration using experimental data from distributed fiber‐

Seismic evaluation of the southbound Stellenberg Interchange Bridge, B5593, in South Africa

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study presents a nonlinear finite element assessment of the seismic vulnerability of Bridge B5593, located in the south‐western region of South Africa. Previous evaluations identified a high likelihood of column failure; however, these were based on linear material models incapable of capturing damage evolution.

Three‐dimensional meso‐scale finite element modeling of recycled aggregate concrete using cohesive zone method

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The presence of adhered mortar (AM) in recycled aggregates (RAs) significantly affects the mechanical performance of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC). Meso‐scale modeling provides valuable insights into complex phase interactions, enabling a better understanding of RAC behavior.

Investigating Crack Resistance Behavior of Polypropylene Using J integral, J‐R Curve and Fractographic Analysis

Fatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, the fracture response of polypropylene (PP) was assessed using J‐integral evaluation, J‐R curve construction, and fractography examination. J‐R and load–displacement curves were analyzed to determine critical loads and estimate J‐integral values based on standards established for polymer fracture testing, which led to the ...

Reduced order modelling of air‐puff test for corneal material characterisation

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Models of the fluid–structure interaction (FSI) model for the air‐puff test were analysed. Using Abaqus, the air‐puff test is applied to eyes with varying biomechanical parameters, such as material properties, corneal thickness, and radius.
