Particle dynamics in sheared granular matter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The particle dynamics and shear forces of granular matter in a Couette geometry are determined experimentally. The normalized tangential velocity $V(y)$ declines strongly with distance $y$ from the moving wall, independent of the shear rate and of the ...

Steel plate shear wall – a 20th century review

open access: yesInternational Journal of Engineering & Technology, 2018
This paper provides a brief summary carried out in past analytical and experimental research work on steel plate shear walls with empha- sis given up to 20th Century. In buildings, two different systems exist to resists the loads viz., gravity load system and a lateral load sys- tem.

Research on seismic performance of prefabricated composite shear wall with end steel plate connection

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Structural Engineering
Chinese construction industry is gradually transforming to industrialization, which promotes the development of prefabricated buildings. As an efficient lateral force resisting system, prefabricated steel-plate concrete composite shear wall structure ...

Optimal control of the heave motion of marine cable subsea-unit systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
One of the key problems associated with subsea operations involving tethered subsea units is the motions of support vessels on the ocean surface which can be transmitted to the subsea unit through the cable and increase the tension.

Analysis of Prefabricated Steel Plate Shear Wall Based on Seismic Performance

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering
Prefabricated steel plate shear walls have garnered significant attention due to their short construction period, low cost, and excellent seismic performance. This study experimentally and numerically compares the plastic development and failure modes of

Investigation of blown boundary layers with an improved wall jet system [PDF]

open access: yes
The behavior of two dimensional incompressible turbulent wall jets submerged in a boundary layer when they are used to prevent boundary layer separation on plane surfaces is investigated.

Experimental Research on Antiseismic Performance of High-Strength Concrete High-Shear Walls with Built-In Steel Plates

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2019
To study the antiseismic performance of the high-strength concrete composite shear wall with built-in steel plates, an experiment on a high-strength concrete composite shear wall with four built-in steel plates (SPRCW-1∼4) was set up.

Multi–scale modelling of timber–frame structures under seismic loads [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This paper introduces a versatile hysteretic constitutive law, developed for various joints with steel fasteners commonly used in timber structures (nails, screws, staples, 3D connectors of bracket type, punched plates). Compared to previous

Coexistence and Transition between Shear Zones in Slow Granular Flows

open access: yes, 2013
We report experiments on slow granular flows in a split-bottom Couette cell that show novel strain localization features. Nontrivial flow profiles have been observed which are shown to be the consequence of simultaneous formation of shear zones in the ...
