In deep foundations, the pile group and the pile raft are generally used. To date, the contribution of the raft is not taken into account in the design, even when the raft is in contact with the soil and the whole system is therefore considered to work ...

Buckled membranes for microstructures [PDF]
Based on energy variation methods we calculated the deflection of membranes under the combined load of an external pressure and an internal lateral stress. A lateral load gives rise to buckling once a critical load is exceeded.

Influence of Vertical Loading on Behavior of Laterally Loaded Foundation Piles: A Review
The majority of installed offshore wind turbines are supported on large-diameter, open-ended steel pile foundations, known as monopiles. These piles are subjected to vertical and lateral loads while in service.

Analytical modeling of reinforced concrete columns subjected to bidirectional shear [PDF]
Under general seismic loading, reinforced concrete columns may be subjected to lateral loads in more than one direction. Available experimental data on columns subjected to bidirectional forces indicate that higher levels of damage and a higher loss of ...

Shear critical R/C columns under increasing axial load [PDF]
Structural elements in old reinforced concrete (R/C) frame buildings are often prone to shear or flexure-shear failure, which can eventually lead to loss of axial load capacity of vertical elements and initiate vertical progressive collapse of a building.

Study on Lateral Vibration of Tail Coach for High-Speed Train under Unsteady Aerodynamic Loads
As the speed of high-speed trains increases, the vehicle’s lateral stability steadily deteriorates. There have been observations of abnormal vibrations in the tail car, particularly on certain sections of the railway line.

External strengthening of unreinforced masonry walls with polymers reinforced with carbon fiber
In many countries, buildings are usually made of unreinforced clay masonry walls, especially in Colombia. These constructions have low resistance and ductility, and are very vulnerable to seismic events, due to their low capacity of energy dissipation ...
