Punching shear performance of star-shaped steel plates reinforced RC slab-column connections

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials, 2023
The progressive collapse of flat plate structures due to brittle punching shear failure of reinforced concrete (RC) slab-column connections is a major concern in structural engineering.

Kinematic flow patterns in slow deformation of a dense granular material [PDF]

open access: yesGranular Matter 17(5) 2015 553--565, 2015
The kinematic flow pattern in slow deformation of a model dense granular medium is studied at high resolution using \emph{in situ} imaging, coupled with particle tracking. The deformation configuration is indentation by a flat punch under macroscopic plane-strain conditions. Using a general analysis method, velocity gradients and deformation fields are

Experimental investigation of punching shear behaviour of ultra-high performance self-compacting concrete slabs

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials, 2023
The use of heavy reinforced and thick transfer-slab in multipurpose tall buildings is crucial to dealing with many issues such as high bending and punching shear stresses created from relocation of columns in floors above transfer-slab.

Anisotropic behaviour law for sheets used in stamping: A comparative study of steel and aluminium [PDF]

open access: yesComptes Rendus Mecanique 331, 1 (2003) 33-40, 2008
For a car manufacturer, reducing the weight of vehicles is an obvious aim. Replacing steel by aluminium moves towards that goal. Unfortunately, aluminium's stamping numerical simulation results are not yet as reliable as those of steel. Punch-strength and spring-back phenomena are not correctly described. This study on aluminium validates the behaviour

Shear-induced contact area anisotropy explained by a fracture mechanics model [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E , American Physical Society (APS), 2019, 99 (5), pp.053005, 2019
This paper gives a theoretical analysis for the fundamental problem of anisotropy induced by shear forces onan adhesive contact, discussing the experimental data of the companion Letter. We present a fracture mechanicsmodel where two phenomenological mode-mixity functions are introduced to describe the weak couplingbetween modes I and II or I and III ...

Strengthening of Reinforced Concrete Slab-Column Connections with Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer Laminates

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
This study presents the structural behavior and punching shear strength of the concrete slab-column connections strengthened with carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates. The variables considered for the twelve specimens included the compressive

Determination of the Punching Cross-Section of Reinforced Concrete Flat Slabs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In this paper, the punching shear resistance of slabs without punching shear reinforcement is investigated. We assumed that the punching shear resistance can be characterized by the shear resistance of the concrete compression zone, and that the load ...

Extrinsic plastic hardening of polymer thin films in flat punch indentation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Confined geometries offer useful and experimentally amenable mechanical testing arrangements in which to study the molecular and micro-structural processes which govern plastic yield in stress environments dominated by hydrostatic pressure over shear.

Finite element implementation of punching shear behaviors in shear-reinforced flat slabs

open access: yesAin Shams Engineering Journal, 2015
Punching shear reinforcement systems such as studs and stirrups are used to improve the punching shear strength of flat slabs. A three dimensional finite element model (FEM) is developed through Ansys 10 computer software, to carry out the nonlinear ...
