Material and geometric nonlinear analysis of reinforced concrete frame structures considering the influence of shear strength complementary mechanisms

open access: yesLatin American Journal of Solids and Structures
A mechanical model for the analysis of reinforced concrete frame structures based on the Finite Element Method (FEM) is proposed in this paper. The nonlinear behavior of the steel and concrete is modeled by plasticity and damage models, respectively.

Estimating Optimum Compaction Level for Dense-Graded Hot-Mix Asphalt Mixtures

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering Research, 2010
A critical step in the design of asphalt mixtures is laboratory compaction. Laboratory compaction should reflect field compaction and should produce mixtures that are economical and possess high structural stability.

What Do Large Language Models Know About Materials?

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
If large language models (LLMs) are to be used inside the material discovery and engineering process, they must be benchmarked for the accurateness of intrinsic material knowledge. The current work introduces 1) a reasoning process through the processing–structure–property–performance chain and 2) a tool for benchmarking knowledge of LLMs concerning ...

Implementing an interlock program [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
On February 12, 2001, the first Australian Alcohol Ignition Interlock Program to be administered through the judicial system was launched in Queensland. Previous government trials of the use of Interlocks have been undertaken in South Australia and New ...

A Workflow to Accelerate Microstructure‐Sensitive Fatigue Life Predictions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a workflow to accelerate predictions of microstructure‐sensitive fatigue life. Results from frameworks with varying levels of simplification are benchmarked against published reference results. The analysis reveals a trade‐off between accuracy and model complexity, offering researchers a practical guide for selecting the optimal ...

Asphalt Mixture Design Concepts to Develop Aggregate Interlock [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
From the beginning of asphalt mixture design it was desired to understand the interaction of aggregates, asphalt, and the voids created during their compaction.

Horizontal Shear Transfer between Concrete and Bricks

open access: yesAl-Qadisiyah Journal for Engineering Science, 2016
Horizontal Shear transfers through interfaces between two materials need to be studied accurately especially when the interface separates two different materials. In this study the two materials are concrete and bricks.

A Numerical–Experimental Approach for Multi‐Matrix Fiber‐Reinforced Plastics Characterization Using Finite Element Model Updating

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A numerical–experimental framework is developed for characterizing multi‐matrix fiber‐reinforced polymers (MM‐FRPs) combining epoxy and polyurethane matrices. Harmonic bending tests are integrated with finite element model updating (FEMU) to simultaneously identify elastic and viscoelastic material parameters.

Experimental analysis of shear transfer by aggregate interlock [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Obwohl Stahlbeton als Konstruktionsbaustoff in der heutigen Zeit nicht mehr wegzudenken ist, konnte insbesondere das Querkrafttragverhalten von Stahlbetonbauteilen ohne ausreichender Querkraftbewehrung bis heute noch nicht restlos geklärt werden.

Influence of coarse aggregate on shear resistance of self-consolidating concrete beams

open access: yesRevista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais
Self-consolidating concrete is characterized by its high flowability, which can be achieved with the addition of superplasticizer and the reduction of the amount and size of coarse aggregates in the concrete mix. This high flowability allows the concrete
