A spring model for simulating the cracking process in RC members subjected to tensile actions

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Predicting the development of cracking processes in structural elements made of reinforced concrete (RC) or other cementitious composites is still a challenging task. Although well‐established experimental procedures are widely adopted with the aim to gain empirical knowledge of the aforementioned processes, no similar consensus has been ...

A framework for seismic analysis of timber structures

open access: yes, 2017
The simulation capabilities of a specifically developed phenomenological model for timber structures are described and presented through some representative case studies. This component model has been developed based on the behaviour of a single nail embedded in wood, considering the compressive behaviour of the wood and plasticization of the nail.

Experimental study on the impact of traffic‐induced vibrations on early‐age concrete

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The COUNT (Concreting under Traffic) research project systematically examined the effects of traffic‐induced vibrations on early‐age, hardening concrete—a critical issue for bridge construction and renovation. Traffic closures are often imposed during such projects to mitigate potential damage from vibrations.

Robustness assessment of reinforced concrete structures for different failure scenarios

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study describes the robustness assessment of 3D reinforced concrete structures analyzing the response of the 2D frames in different design configurations and failure scenarios. The structures are characterized by both frames with wide beams and seismic‐resistant frames with deep beams.
