Flexural performance of concrete‐filled steel tubular beams with wood chip aggregate

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the flexural performance of concrete‐filled steel tubular (CFST) beams with partial replacement of aggregates by wood chips (0%–25%) through experimental and numerical analysis. This study is novel in that it experimentally and numerically investigates the flexural behavior of CFST beams with partial replacement of ...

Numerically efficient mechanical modeling of reinforced concrete membrane elements with fixed, interlocked cracks

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Compression field approaches such as the Cracked Membrane Model with fixed, interlocked cracks (CMM‐F) are efficient tools for the mechanical modeling of reinforced concrete elements, providing the mechanical model σ=fε$$ \boldsymbol{\upsigma} =f\left(\boldsymbol{\upvarepsilon} \right) $$ required for finite element analyses.

Experimental and design‐oriented research on fiber reinforced concrete segmental tunnel linings: A systematic review

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The use of fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) in precast tunnel segments is among the most established and representative applications of this material. Over the past two decades, numerous tunnel linings were constructed with partial or total substitution of conventional steel reinforcement by fibers, this yielding to quantifiable benefits in ...

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.

Improving fatigue resistance of translucent 4Y‐PSZ zirconia through glass gradation

European Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract To evaluate the effect of graded glass infiltration on the fatigue behavior and mechanical reliability of translucent 4Y‐PSZ zirconia before and after hydrothermal aging, disc‐shaped specimens were fabricated by uniaxial pressing and divided into control and glass‐graded groups (n = 36/group).

Mixed‐Mode Stress Intensity Factor Evaluation via Thermoelastic Stress Analysis Including Non‐Adiabatic Correction

Fatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Characterization of the crack tip, such as the stress intensity factor (SIF), is a vital step for the assessment of fatigue crack growth and prediction of potential failure in engineering structures. This study investigates the use of thermoelastic stress analysis (TSA) for SIF evaluation, including a methodology for non‐adiabatic stress field
