International Journal of Maritime Technology, 2020 This paper presents the collapse behaviour of a composite ship hull girder under vertical bending. Finite element method is used to provide valuable information regarding moment-curvature relationships and progressive failure characteristics of the ...

Punching shear in flat slab systems – Experimental quantification of unconsidered system influences
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Due to the demand for slender and functional buildings, flat slabs are a frequently used load‐bearing element in buildings. However, the concentrated load introduction at the slab‐column connection is often the governing detail in design due to punching shear failure.

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

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract With the market introduction of new reinforcing materials, such as corrosion‐resistant steel, the effect of their stress–strain relationship on the ductility of reinforced concrete structures needs to be evaluated. Their moment‐curvature behavior significantly influences bending moment redistributions, rotation capacity, and deformation at ...

“Safe Struck Ship”(3S):Software Package for Structural analysis of collision between ships [PDF]
Port Said Engineering Research Journal, 2012 Each year, thousands of tons of crude oil and petroleum products are spilled in the seas as a result of collision between ships. So, as a part of the overall effort to promote maritime safety and environmental protection an integrated software package of

Pre‐failure behavior of continuous post‐tensioned and post‐grouted beam in case of tendon failure
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Grouted tendons are a common solution for long‐span bridge structures. The grout provides bond and corrosion protection for prestressing steel. However, if the grouting is defective, corrosion of the prestressing steel may initiate and eventually lead to tendon failure.

Progressive Collapse Analysis of the Local Elements and Ultimate Strength of a Ro-Ro Ship
International Journal of Technology, 2019 One of the most important criteria in ship design is strength. When a ship is under external loads such as waves, buoyancy or pressure, its internal reaction must resists those external loads.

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Linear elastic finite element analyses (LEFEAs) have become more frequent in the design and assessment of reinforced concrete slabs under concentrated loads, as they enable low‐cost evaluation of the distribution of shear forces over critical sections.

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Worldwide, transportation agencies have been involved in road mitigation efforts to reduce road mortality and promote connectivity of endangered species. Baseline data on how mammals respond to highway construction, however, are rarely collected in road mitigation and monitoring studies, including in the USA.
