Simple and detailed modeling of corrosion‐affected slender shear critical RC beams

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The corrosion of steel bars compromises both the safety and the serviceability of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Consequently, reliable tools are required to estimate the detrimental effects of corrosion on the structural response of RC members subjected to transverse loads.

Structural capacity of precast concrete walls with openings: A parametric study on connection types and reinforcement ratios

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The structural role of precast concrete walls with openings is often overlooked in design practice due to concerns about reduced stiffness, stress concentration, cracking around openings, and potential unexpected failure modes under seismic loading.

The influence of secondary reinforcement on a strut‐and‐tie model for the design of reinforced concrete corbels

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract In precast concrete structures, optimizing the design of corbels by considering the contributions of secondary reinforcement elements can significantly improve construction economy, especially when corbels are repeated multiple times. This paper proposes a strut‐and‐tie model for reinforced concrete corbels subjected to vertical and/or ...

Defining Lines of Defense Against Change Propagation Using Cause‐Consequence Analysis

open access: yesSystems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Complex engineered systems are the core of modern society. So that engineered systems and infrastructure can be sustainable and offer value over the course of their lifespan, there is a growing need for such systems to be changeable. Yet, establishing and operationalizing changeability can be challenging due to the potential for change ...

A Preventive Static Security Control Strategy for Distribution Networks Based on Phase Shifting Transformer Loop‐Closing Devices

open access: yesIEEJ Transactions on Electrical and Electronic Engineering, EarlyView.
As the share of renewable energy in the energy mix continues to increase, the penetration of distributed renewable generation in distribution networks is also rising steadily. Loop‐closing operation provides an effective means to enhance renewable energy accommodation across different grid partitions.
