The effect of masonry infill walls on the reinforced concrete frames behavior under lateral load [PDF]
, 2020 The reinforced concrete structures with masonry infill walls are widely used to construct buildings in Algeria, as in many parts of the world. According to earthquake analysis, this type of construction can undergo serious damage under seismic load.

TUM bond database with full‐scale beam tests on anchorages and laps in tension
Civil Engineering Design, EarlyView.Abstract Reliable experimental data is essential for the development and validation of structural design models. However, existing bond databases often lack consistency, traceability, and overall data quality. To address this, the Technical University of Munich (TUM) developed the TUM Bond Database (TUMBD), a curated collection of experimental test ...

Modeling Approaches for Masonry Structures [PDF]
The Open Civil Engineering Journal, 2014 Different scale approaches, micromechanical, multiscale and macromechanical or phenomenological, are presented to study the structural response of masonry elements. First, a micromechanical model is introduced and the masonry is considered to be a heterogeneous material, made of mortar and bricks joined by interfaces, where the mortarbrick decohesion ...

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.Through shear–tensile creep tests and viscoelastic modeling, the fracture evolution of thick soft protective layers is clarified. Results show thickness‐dependent rheological failure modes that govern four types of roof water inrush, providing a mechanism‐based framework for hazard prediction and control. Abstract In the Jurassic coal‐bearing strata of

Journal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2001 Joint action at the interface of concrete and profiled steel sheet layers of composite structures can be achieved in various ways. In most cases different types of roughness (embossments) are made inside sheet waves, which increase mechanical bond ...

Finite Element Modeling of a Thermoplastic Polyurethane Ball for Rolling Seismic Isolation
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.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 ...

Conservation of cultural heritage structures in seismic regions [PDF]
, 2006 The paper addresses different aspects related to the conservation of cultural heritage structures, with a focus on: a) Behavior of masonry components under cyclic loading (tension, compression and shear); b) Behavior of stone masonry shear walls ...

Seismic vulnerability maps of Timisoara historical center based on fragility curves [PDF]
, 2016 The seismic vulnerability assessment on a territorial scale requires the application of simplified procedures. Data collection is usually carried out by adopting external inspections; for this reason the knowledge gained for the considered buildings is ...
