Influence of shear reinforcement corrosion on the performance of under-reinforced concrete beams [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The in-service performance of reinforced concrete beams can be severely affected through cor-rosion of the steel reinforcement when it becomes subjected to harsh corrosive environments containing chlo-rides and carbon dioxide.

A Topology Optimization Framework for the Inverse Design of Nonlinear Mechanical Metamaterials

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This work uses topology optimization to design unit cells for mechanical metamaterials with a prescribed nonlinear stress–strain response. The framework adds contact and postbuckling modeling to synthesize microstructures for three highly nonlinear responses, including pseudoductile behavior, monostable with snap‐through buckling, and bistable ...

Shear Resistance for Lateral Force of Light-frame Wall Sheathed with Structural Particleboard (PB)

open access: yesBioResources
The shear resistance of a structural particleboard (PB) wall was evaluated as a means to utilize recycled wood and low-grade logs for long periods. The wall was composed of spruce-pine-fir (SPF) lumber, nails, and structural PB, which was developed by ...

Comparative Study of Transverse Shear Characteristics of Shear-Yielding Bolts and Traditional Bolts Based on Numerical Simulations and Direct Shear Tests

open access: yesBuildings
The shear-yielding bolt is a new type of anchoring structure, and its working mechanism in layered rocks is not yet well understood. To investigate its transverse shear characteristics, this paper takes the shear-yielding bolt as the research subject and

Behaviour and Strength of Headed Shear Stud Connectors

open access: yesCommunications, 2013
Headed stud shear connectors are commonly used to transfer longitudinal shear forces across the steel-concrete interface in composite structures. This paper is focused on the experimental and numerical study on the behaviour of this type of connectors ...

3D (Bio) Printing Combined Fiber Fabrication Methods for Tissue Engineering Applications: Possibilities and Limitations

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Biofabrication aims at providing innovative technologies and tools for the fabrication of tissue‐like constructs for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. By integrating multiple biofabrication technologies, such as 3D (bio) printing with fiber fabrication methods, it would be more realistic to reconstruct native tissue's ...

Uncertainty in Shear Resistance of Reinforced Concrete Beams With Stirrups – Comparison of EN 1992-1-1 and fib Mc 2010 Approaches

open access: yesTransactions of the VŠB: Technical University of Ostrava, Civil Engineering Series, 2014
The submitted contribution is focused on the model uncertainty related to shear resistance of reinforced concrete beams with stirrups. Using available test results, effects of basic variables on the model uncertainty are analysed. Considering the section-

Creeping motion of a solid particle inside a spherical elastic cavity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
On the basis of the linear hydrodynamic equations, we present an analytical theory for the low-Reynolds-number motion of a solid particle moving inside a larger spherical elastic cavity which can be seen as a model system for a fluid vesicle.

Mechanical Properties of Architected Polymer Lattice Materials: A Comparative Study of Additive Manufacturing and CAD Using FEM and µ‐CT

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study examines how pore shape and manufacturing‐induced deviations affect the mechanical properties of 3D‐printed lattice materials with constant porosity. Combining µ‐CT analysis, FEM, and compression testing, the authors show that structural imperfections reduce stiffness and strength, while bulk material inhomogeneities probably enhance ...
