Quasi-Static Testing of Unreinforced Masonry Walls Using Different Styles of Basalt Fiber Mortar Surface Reinforcements

Buildings
To investigate the reinforcement effects of different reinforcement methods including basalt fibers on unreinforced masonry walls (UMWs), this study examined three reinforcement methods: ordinary mortar, basalt fiber mortar, and basalt fiber mesh mortar.

Hygro-thermal performance of wooden beam ends: experimental investigations of uninsulated and internally insulated brick wall [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences, 2020
Wooden floors were traditionally used in brick apartment houses built at the turn of 20th century in many European cities. Thermal renovation of such houses often involves thermal insulation at interior side of external walls.

From Material Tensions to Organizational Paradoxes: How Manufacturers Cope With the Limits of Circular Product Design

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Circular product design (CPD) is central to advancing the circular economy by enabling the narrowing, slowing, and closing of resource flows. Yet, its implementation remains persistently challenging for firms. Prior research has largely framed these challenges as discrete barriers, overlooking the structural contradictions embedded in CPD ...

Application of Brittle Materials to Strengthen Masonry [PDF]

, 2008
Fibre Reinforced Polymer Strengthening (FRP) has become a popular method for retrofitting masonry structures. It is easily applied by attaching bonding either dry fibre mats or pre-formed plates to an existing structure.

Masonry Wall Performance Estimation Under Blast Loading: A Study Using Finite Element Analysis

Mekanika
This paper studies the dynamic response of masonry wall structures under blast loading. It requires a detailed understanding of the explosion phenomenon, wave propagation, and the structure's response to these shocks.

Fracture evolution of a thick soft protection layer and the water inrush mechanism in overburden under longwall mining

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

Numerical and Experimental Evaluation of a Simplified Lateral Spring Formulation for Rocking Structures

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rocking podium isolation systems have gained significant research interest as a method of limiting seismic demands on superstructures and eliminating residual post‐earthquake drifts through self‐centring behaviour. However, while numerous models of varying complexity, including analytical, phenomenological, and physical formulations, have been

On Assisting and Automatizing the Semantic Segmentation of Masonry Walls

Journal on Computing and Cultural Heritage, 2022
In Architectural Heritage, the masonry’s interpretation is an essential instrument for analysing the construction phases, the assessment of structural properties, and the monitoring of its state of conservation. This work is generally carried out by specialists that, based on visual observation and their knowledge, manually annotate ortho-images of the
