Fitting of mechanical material behaviour of structural steel for numerical modelling

open access: yesSteel Construction, EarlyView.
Abstract Numerical simulations are widely used in structural engineering research, and validated models enable the efficient expansion of datasets without costly additional testing. They allow the investigation of alternative geometries and loading scenarios beyond those covered by experiments.

Analysis of flow rates in cracked reinforced concrete

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract According to Eurocode 2, part 3, autogenous self‐healing of separation cracks with a width ≤0.20 mm can be considered under certain hydraulic conditions. However, practical experience shows that healing does not always reliably occur even when this crack width is maintained.

Numerical investigation on primary and secondary cracks in thick concrete members

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the crack formation process in thick reinforced concrete members subjected to imposed deformations, focusing on the development of secondary cracks in addition to geometrically set primary cracks. A validated nonlinear fracture‐plastic finite element model is used to analyze the influence of reinforcement layout, member

Impact of half‐joint failures on RC girder bridges: A robustness quantification study

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The robustness of bridge structures is critical to ensuring safety and service continuity, particularly in aging infrastructure exposed to degradation and unexpected loads. Reinforced concrete (RC) half‐joint bridges—widely built in Italy between the 1950s and 1970s—exhibit specific vulnerabilities due to inspection challenges, durability ...

The Interactional Pathways of Mass Killings: Toward a Novel Understanding of Rampage School Shootings

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
Rampage school shootings, where students go to their own school to randomly kill classmates, teachers, friends, and strangers, are among the most drastic types of human behavior. While research increasingly points to interaction dynamics as being key for the emergence of crime and violence, scholars have not yet systematically studied interaction ...
