Experimental and theoretical investigation of longitudinal tunnel lining joints with confining reinforcement

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Precast reinforced concrete segmental linings are frequently used in modern tunneling. In these linings, the longitudinal joints typically have a reduced contact cross‐section and thus often govern the design, particularly in tunnels under high hydrostatic pressure or crossing squeezing or swelling ground with correspondingly high ...

Experimental investigation on post‐installed anchorages with cast‐in anchor reinforcement under tension loading

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Anchors are used to connect different structural and non‐structural components to reinforced concrete structures. Anchorages when subjected to tension loading might fail in different failure modes, with concrete cone breakout (CCB) being one of the most common.

Large‐scale tests of 50‐year‐old prestressed concrete bridge girders

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract An experimental investigation has been carried out as part of the BRIDGE|50 research project, focusing on large‐scale loading tests performed on five 50‐year‐old prestressed concrete (PC) girders. The study aimed at evaluating the structural response of five girders retrieved from a viaduct in the urban area of Turin, Italy, subjected to 4 ...

Corrosion Failure Analysis of Contactor Type Electrical Connection Components Used in Converter Valve Side Bushings

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As a commonly used bushing current‐carrying structure in recent years, contactor‐type electrical connection parts operate in a complex environment of electric, thermal and chemical corrosion for extended periods. With the increase of ultra‐high voltage (UHV) transmission capacity, its operating environment faces more stringent challenges, and ...
