Accelerated performance testing of concrete pavement with short slabs

International Journal of Pavement Engineering, 2012
A new concept for designing concrete pavements by optimising the slab geometry in order to reduce the slab thickness as well as to minimise the mechanical load transfer devices has recently been proposed. Theoretically, the reduced slab size lowers the load and curling-induced tensile stresses and concomitantly a thinner concrete slab can be ...

Modeling Short-Term Deflection of Reinforced Concrete Slabs using the Layered Approach

Proceedings of the ... International conference on civil infrastructure and construction, 2023
This paper examines the short-term deflection of reinforced concrete slabs taking the tension-stiffening phenomenon into account. The main goal of this study is to develop a model that predicts the deflection of one-way slabs made of reinforced concrete.

Short-lived, long-lived and periodic flat slab subduction

2021
<div><span>Flat slab subduction occurs when the subducted slab lies flat below the base of the overriding plate for up to several hundred kilometres before bending into the deeper mantle. It has been ascribed to a variety of causes, including subduction of buoyant ridges/plateaus and forced trench retreat.

Propagation of a short proton beam through a thin plasma slab

Physical Review E, 2003
A one-dimensional open boundary Vlasov code is used in order to investigate the propagation of a short proton beam through a plasma slab. Collisionless regimes are assumed, where the interaction between the beam and the plasma occurs due to the self-consistent, collective, electric field.

Vehicle Induced Dynamic Behavior of Short-Span Slab Bridges Considering Effect of Approach Slab Condition

Journal of Bridge Engineering, 2008
In this paper the vehicle induced dynamic bridge responses are calculated by modeling the bridge and vehicle as one coupled system. The dynamic behavior of short slab bridges with different span lengths induced by the AASHTO HS20 truck is investigated.

Nondestructive Measurement of Complex Permittivity for Dielectric Slabs (Short Papers)

IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques, 1975
A method has been developed for the precise nondestructive measurement of the dielectric constant and losses of slab-like samples such as microstrip substrates, for instance. Basically, the test setup consists of an open-ended rectangular waveguide, the flange of which is placed in contact with one side of the dielectric material, the other one being ...

Characteristic Impedance of the Slab Line with an Anisotropic Dielectric (Short Papers)

IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques, 1985
The characteristic impedance of the slab line with a circular conductor having an anisotropic dielectric is presented by rising the affine and conformal transformations. Moreover, a simpler approximate formula of the impedance expressed in term of epsilon /spl par/, epsilon /spl perp/, and r/h is also presented, where epsilon /spl par/, epsilon /spl ...
