Damage evolution in reinforced concrete columns subjected to biaxial loading [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
An analysis of the damage observed in 24 reinforced concrete (RC) columns tested under uniaxial and biaxial horizontal loading is presented. The test results show that for biaxial loading conditions specific damage occurs for lower drift demands when ...

Mechanics of polycarbonate in biaxial impact loading

open access: yesInternational Journal of Solids and Structures, 2016
We investigate the deformation and failure behavior of Polycarbonate (PC) under low-velocity biaxial impact loading. For this, we have conducted experiments and numerical simulations of the falling weight impact test (FWT) for different testing configurations.

Reduced Graphene Oxide Transparent Electrodes Enabling Compact Soft Tunable Lenses

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
By spray‐coating an elastomeric membrane with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) at various surface densities, elastomeric actuators are manufactured. Electro‐mechano‐optical characterizations show the suitability of rGO as an effective material for compliant, semi‐transparent electrodes, enabling soft electrically tunable lenses with a compact form factor ...

Energy dissipation and equivalent damping of RC columns subjected to biaxial bending: an investigation based in experimental results [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The cyclic behaviour of reinforced concrete columns have been object of many experimental studies in the recent past years. However, the experimental studies on the biaxial response of RC columns are still limited.

Ultrasonic fatigue testing device under biaxial bending [PDF]

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity, 2016
A new fatigue testing device has been developed to test specimens under biaxial loading at 20 kHz. A flat smooth specimen with a disc geometry is placed on a torus frame and cyclically loaded at the center of its upper face.
