Laboratory Study of Structural Behavior of Alternative Dowel Bars;TR-510, April 2006 [PDF]

, 2006
Load transfer across transverse joints has always been a factor contributing to the useful life of concrete pavements. For many years, round steel dowels have been the conventional load transfer mechanism.

Review of articular cartilage repair techniques and their application in the horse

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Articular cartilage lesions represent a significant career‐limiting problem in athletic horses. A healthy articular cartilage surface is vital for optimal joint function, and defects can result in irreversible degenerative changes. Successful treatment of cartilage lesions remains a long‐standing challenge for orthopaedic surgeons, prompting ...

Direct Measurement of Explosive Impulse From Contact to the Ultra‐Near Field

Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Measurement of impulse from explosive charges in contact and ultra‐near‐field regimes remains poorly characterised due to the short duration of loading, high strain rates, and the difficulty of obtaining direct momentum‐based measurements.

Numerical Theoretical Study on Mechanical Properties of New Reinforced Tenon Precast Shear Walls

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2020
Precast construction technologies have several advantages in industrialized production, such as quality control and energy conservation. However, the joint interface slippage between the precast components causes detrimental effect on the mechanical ...

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

Structural 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.

Field Evaluation of Elliptical Fiber Reinforced Polymer Dowel Performance, June 2003 [PDF]

, 2003
Fiber composite materials (FRP) are making an entry into the construction market in both buildings and pavements. The application to pavements comes in the form of joint reinforcement (dowels and tie bars) to date.

NONLINEAR FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS OF COMPOSITE CONCRETE BEAMS

Journal of Engineering
To study the nonlinear response of composite concrete beams, a finite element analysis is presented. Material nonlinearities as a result of nonlinear response of concrete in compression, crushing and cracking of concrete, strain softening and stiffening

Mechanical modeling of dowel action and the influence of small amounts of shear reinforcement on the shear‐transfer actions in RC beams

Structural Concrete, 2023
AbstractDowel action of the longitudinal reinforcement in RC beams without and with small amounts of shear reinforcement is typically considered a constant shear contribution determined from the splitting strength of the concrete cover. However, in a recent experimental investigation by the authors, it was shown that the shear force transferred by ...

Kinematics‐based model for shear capacity assessment of unreinforced interior beam–column joints

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study presents a kinematics‐based model for assessing the shear strength of reinforced concrete interior beam–column joints without transverse reinforcement. The proposed framework is built on first principles—kinematics, equilibrium, and constitutive relations—and explicitly models discrete cracks by introducing kinematic parameters such
