Effect of unbonded prestressing steel in terms of serviceability

open access: yesCivil and Environmental Engineering
One of the methods of strengthening bridges is strengthening using unbonded post-tensioned prestressing steel e.g. strands type monostrand. The individual strands, protected with grease and HDPE coating, are routed polygonally.

Unreinforced masonry structures

open access: yesBulletin of the New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 1996
Unreinforced masonry is widely used in Australia as an architectural and structural material. Because of its high mass, lack of ductility and low tensile strength it is unsuitable for use in areas of high seismicity. However in countries of lower seismicity such as Australia it can be used provided it is designed, detailed and constructed correctly ...

Disease Refuge or Ecological Trap: Location‐Specific Performance of Amphibian Hotspot Shelters

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Artificial hotspot shelters, which provide sun‐heated retreats, can help frogs clear infections from the amphibian chytrid fungus (Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis) by creating warm microhabitats unsuitable for the pathogen. We monitored shelter temperatures at two Australian sites and found they reached therapeutic levels far more often in Sydney than ...

Finite Element Modeling of a Thermoplastic Polyurethane Ball for Rolling Seismic Isolation

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 926-946, 10 April 2026.
ABSTRACT The Elastomeric‐Ball Pendulum (EBP) system, which consists of an elastomeric ball rolling on a spherical concrete surface, has been proposed as an isolation system for lightweight structures. Experimental tests have shown that the mechanics of such a rolling ball are remarkably complicated because the vertical load changes the shape of the ...

Influence of composition of mortar mixture on strength and deformability of external walls/Skiedinio sudėties įtaka išorinių sienos sluoksnių stiprumui ir deforma vimuisi

open access: yesJournal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2000
The basic element of building, wall, must satisfty not only requirements for strength, stability, but also for cracking. Experiments and practice show that in many cases external decoration layers of external walls are cracked.

Experimental assessment and retrofit of full-scale models of existing RC frames [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
PSD tests on two full-scale models of existing non-seismic resisting RC frame structures are described. The testing program covered several aspects, namely assessment of seismic performance of existing frames without and with infill panels ...
