Cyclic Behavior of HPFRCC Coupling Beams with Bundled Diagonal Bars

open access: yesInternational Journal of Concrete Structures and Materials, 2018
Coupled shear walls are efficient in resisting lateral forces induced by winds and earthquakes. However, it is difficult to construct coupled shear walls particularly because current design codes require complex reinforcing details within coupling beams.

Simplified Method for Defining 2-Dimensional Design Failure Curve of Marine Silty Sand under Dynamic Loading

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Global warming is becoming worse owing to carbon dioxide emissions around the world, and eco-friendly energy for reducing carbon dioxide emissions is gaining importance. Wind power plants are the most representative of the environmentally friendly energy

PRENOLIN project. Results of the validation phase at sendai site [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
One of the objectives of the PRENOLIN project is the assessment of uncertainties associated with non-linear simulation of 1D site effects. An international benchmark is underway to test several numerical codes, including various non-linear soil ...

Experimental study on influence of geo-cell reinforcement on dynamic properties of rubber-sand mixtures

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2017
The rubber-sand mixtures (RSM) are more and more widely used in civil engineering as light filling and energy absorbing materials. The geo-cell can be used to reinforce RSM to improve its shear strength and stability.

Prediction of Joint Shear Deformation Index of RC Beam–Column Joints

open access: yesBuildings, 2020
In the analysis of reinforced concrete (RC) buildings, beam–column joints are regarded as rigid nodes. In fact, joint deformation may make a significant difference in the lateral response of RC buildings if joints are not properly designed and detailed ...

Initiation and stagnation of room temperature grain coarsening in cyclically strained gold films

open access: yes, 2019
Despite the large number of experiments demonstrating that grains in a metallic material can grow at room temperature due to applied mechanical load, the mechanisms and the driving forces responsible for mechanically induced grain coarsening are still ...

Derivation of Contour Plots for the Characterization of the Behaviour of Sand under Undrained Loading

open access: yesGeotechnics
The soil response under the inherent cyclic loading conditions when dealing with offshore foundations can be considered by using contour plots. These plots are derived from several cyclic laboratory tests and characterize the general cyclic soil ...

Compression tests of castor oil biopolymer

open access: yesMaterials Research, 2006
Many methods have been developed to test and evaluate the mechanical properties of the biopolymer from castor oil employed in implants and osteo-repositions, among other things. Most of the methods are performed under quasi-static and cyclic loads (creep

A simplified cyclic shear test for pore water pressure build-up of different soils [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
Pore water pressure (PWP) build-up essentially takes place in loose, water saturated, coarse-grained soils causing the reduction of effective stresses and soil stiffness (soil liquefaction).
