A Review on Progressive Collapse of Reinforced Concrete Flat Slab Structures [PDF]
Civil Engineering Infrastructures Journal, 2021 The reinforced concrete flat slab structures are highly susceptible to punching shear failure. This occurs due to the transferring of shear force and due to the bending moment between the slab and the column.

The role of flat slab subduction, ridge subduction, and tectonic inheritance in Andean deformation
Geology, 2022 Convergent plate boundaries show sharp variations in orogenic width and extent of intraplate deformation. Analysis of late Cenozoic contractile deformation along the Andean mountain front and adjacent foreland highlights the contrasting degrees of ...

Numerical models of Farallon plate subduction: Creating and removing a flat slab
Geosphere, 2022 Flat-slab subduction has affected parts of North America, South America, and Asia over the past 250 m.y. In these areas, reconstructions show that the subducting plate became subhorizontal below the continent for ~5 to >30 m.y., followed by foundering of

Deformation capacity evaluation for flat slab seismic design
Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2022 In flat-slab frames, which are typically designed as secondary seismic structures, the shear failure of the slab around the column (punching failure) is typically the governing failure mode which limits the deformation capacity and can potentially lead ...

Structural Design Optimization of Flat Slab Hospital Buildings Using Genetic Algorithms
Buildings, 2022 The construction costs of hospital buildings are relatively high due to the need to fulfill their complex functions and avoid mishaps. In this context, this study aims to minimize the total construction costs of hospitals while still satisfying the ...

Volume staging for arteriovenous malformation SRS treatment using VMAT
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Volume staging involves dividing the target volume into smaller parts and treating each part separately. In this study, the feasibility of volume‐staged stereotactic radiosurgery (VS‐SRS) on a linear accelerator using volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and a frameless patient positioning system is investigated.

Financial comparative study between post-tensioned and reinforced concrete flat slab
International Journal of Advanced Engineering, Sciences and Applications, 2022 As for today, post-tensioned slabs gained much popularity and started to be widely used among construction companies all around the world. As we refer to the structural members, we acknowledge that the price of the slab is much higher in comparison to ...

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Purpose The aim of this work was to evaluate the SunCHECK PerFRACTION, the software for in vivo monitoring using EPID images. Materials/Methods First, the PerFRACTION ability to detect errors was investigated simulating two situations: (1) variation of LINAC output and (2) variation of the phantom thickness.

Optimum Design of Reinforced Concrete Flat Slabs [PDF]
Engineering and Technology Journal, 2015 This paper deals with the problem of optimum design of reinforced concrete flat slabs by genetic algorithm. Four case studies are discussed; flat slabs with and without edge beams, and, flat-plate with and without edge beams. The cost function represents
