The Dowel Group Action in Jointed Concrete Pavement

Advanced Materials Research, 2012
The wheel load transfer across a joints in concrete pavement is accomplished mainly by dowel bar system, dowels are installed in order to allow shear load transfer across slab joints. The dowel group action has been examined in this paper via from using of 3-D FE mode. Numerical model results are presented in four formats in this study, including shear

Tarsometatarsal Joint Arthrodesis with Trephine Joint Resection and Dowel Calcaneal Bone Graft

The Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery, 2014
Arthritis of the tarsometatarsal joints is a challenging problem to treat. It can cause chronic foot pain and functional disability. We present a surgical technique for tarsometatarsal joint arthrodesis using a trephine to resect the articular surfaces and a dowel plug of an autogenous calcaneal graft with locking plate fixation. The procedure has been

The Design of Plain Doweled Jointed Concrete Pavement

Proceedings of the International Conference on Concrete Pavements
This report explores the controversies and consensus on the use of dowel bars in jointed concrete pavements, focusing on medium to heavy truck traffic routes. Historically, dowels have been recognized for their role in load transfer at expansion joints and in long, reinforced slabs.

Locked joints of steel dowel

2013
В работе предложено замковое соединение стального шпунта, выполненное в виде двух одинаковых профилей постоянной толщины, отличающиеся от известных конструкций замковых соединений тем, что профили выполнены замкнутыми, имеют квадратное или прямоугольное сечение с прорезями на одной из сторон для обеспечения входа одного профиля в другой и взаимного ...

Misalignment of Dowel Bars in Rigid Pavement Joints

Sustainable Construction Materials 2012, 2012
The performance of concrete pavements depends to a large extent upon the satisfactory performance of the joints. Most jointed concrete pavement failures can be attributed to failures at the joint, as opposed to inadequate structural capacity (FHWA, November 30, 1990).

Design of Dowels in Transverse Joints of Concrete Pavements

Transactions of the American Society of Civil Engineers, 1940
Technical literature lacks a rational solution for the deflections and stresses in and around dowels through transverse joints in concrete pavements.

Application of Numerical Modelling to Dowel-Welded Wood Joints

Journal of Adhesion Science and Technology, 2010
Numerical models using a 3-D finite element analysis method and the behaviour of dowel-welded wood joints are presented. Simulation results for step butt wood joints with two welded wood dowels under shear are analyzed and a good agreement with the experimental results is shown. Anisotropic elasto-plastic constitutive law with hardening associated with

Analysis of the moment-rotational stiffness of dowelled timber joints

Pollack Periodica, 2008
Timber joints are usually considered as perfectly pinned or stiff against rotation during the calculations of engineering timber structures. However the semi-rigid behavior the joints cannot be avoided in case of accurate calculations. In this paper the rotational stiffness and the full moment-rotational behavior of dowel-type timber joints were ...

Dowel arthrodesis of the ankle joint in rheumatoid arthritis

Orthopaedics and Traumatology, 1995
Surgical Principles Dowel arthrodesis of the ankle is a simple, safe and effective form of arthrodesis for the rheumatoid ankle joint in those cases where there is no significant deformity. The basic technique of the operation is similar to that used for anterior interbody fusion of the spine and uses similar instruments [1].

High‐performance dowel‐type joints for timber structures

Progress in Structural Engineering and Materials, 2003
AbstractThis paper identifies the fundamental factors that affect the performance of dowel‐type joints between structural timber members. It considers methods that have been used to enhance joint performance and illustrates how these have been brought together in two alternative high‐performance joints.
