The Pier Luigi Nervi's concrete structure of Palazzetto dello Sport: Modeling and dynamic characterization

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents a numerical and experimental study aimed at the modeling and dynamic characterization of the reinforced concrete structure of the Palazzetto dello Sport in Rome, designed and by Pier Luigi Nervi with Annibale Vitellozzi, and built by Nervi & Bartoli contractors in 1956‐57.

Structural behavior of deteriorated Gerber half‐joints in highway overpasses by nonlinear finite element analysis combined with a simplified uniform‐corrosion model

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Gerber half‐joints, broadly used in the last century as elements of concrete bridges, are prone to corrosion‐induced deterioration, which may lead to brittle shear collapse. It is of paramount importance to develop advanced numerical models for simulating the collapse behavior of Gerber half‐joints, taking material deterioration into account ...

A fiber‐based deterioration modeling framework for reinforced concrete structures subject to spatially non‐uniform corrosion patterns described by limited information

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Reinforced concrete structures are often subject to significantly non‐uniform corrosion patterns. In real situations, the information available about deterioration is incomplete and sometimes is reduced to qualitative judgments formulated by inspectors based on in‐situ surveys.

Experimental behavior of shear deficient RC beams strengthened with CFRP strips against reversible cyclic earthquake load

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study aims to prevent sudden and brittle shear failures in reinforced concrete beams, which are frequently caused by deficiencies in shear reinforcement. Following the Kahramanmaraş earthquakes in Turkey on February 6, 2023, inspections revealed that many reinforced concrete beams suffered severe damage due to design errors, high shear ...

A seven‐year investigation on the flexural performance of cement‐based multi‐layered roof elements exposed to outdoor conditions

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract As part of a regional research project started in 2011, the Politecnico di Milano coordinated a research consortium aimed at developing a cement‐based multi‐layered roof element designed to achieve structural safety, lightness, thermal efficiency, and compatibility with photovoltaic systems.

A shear failure analysis of ultra‐high‐performance concrete based on modified contact density and concrete damaged plasticity models

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Ultra‐high‐performance concrete (UHPC) becomes a promising composite material in structural concrete due to its exceptional mechanical and durability properties. However, the performance and damage characteristics of UHPC under different loading scenarios remain a subject of ongoing research.

Geological Interpretation of Reflection Seismic Data

open access: yes, 2012
This research consists of all these aspects in a brief. Starting from the introduction to the seismic methods in Chapter (1). In Chapter (2) We tried to give a brief introduction about the basics of the different types of waves, and fundamental of seismic data and it’s definition like multiples, processing, etc.
