Toward optimal multi-actuator displacement controlled mobile hydraulic systems

, 2012
The research in this thesis is primarily motivated by rising fuel costs and increasingly stringent emissions regulations for diesel engines. These factors increase the cost of operation and the cost of production of mobile hydraulic machine systems ...

Bond‐slip modeling for reinforced concrete beam‐column joints with plain reinforcement bars: Insights from numerical validation

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The previous seismic events indicated the vulnerability of old reinforced concrete (RC) structures against earthquakes due to the absence of seismic detailing and capacity design specifications in such buildings. In this context, beam‐column joints (BCJ) of the existing RC structures built before the 1970s have exhibited poor structural ...

Innovative development and structural behavior of hollow columns using inflatable molds

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study introduces a novel approach for constructing hollow columns using precast (PC) methods enhanced by inflatable air tubes as internal molds. The proposed method addresses practical challenges in conventional hollow column construction, such as limited constructability, high production cost, and interference between internal molds and ...

Evaluation of prestress losses in concrete beams using destructive and non‐destructive methods

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Over the past few decades, prestressing techniques have become essential in the construction of key structures, infrastructure, and bridges. The serviceability and safety of prestressed concrete (PC) elements are closely tied to the effectiveness of the prestressing process.

Experimental investigation on post‐installed anchorages with cast‐in anchor reinforcement under tension loading

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Anchors are used to connect different structural and non‐structural components to reinforced concrete structures. Anchorages when subjected to tension loading might fail in different failure modes, with concrete cone breakout (CCB) being one of the most common.

Large‐scale tests of 50‐year‐old prestressed concrete bridge girders

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract An experimental investigation has been carried out as part of the BRIDGE|50 research project, focusing on large‐scale loading tests performed on five 50‐year‐old prestressed concrete (PC) girders. The study aimed at evaluating the structural response of five girders retrieved from a viaduct in the urban area of Turin, Italy, subjected to 4 ...
