Modified Softened Strut and Tie Model for Concrete Deep Beams
A modified softened strut-and-tie model (MSST) for determining the shear strength of reinforced concrete deep beams is proposed in this paper. It is a simplified analytical model and several improvements have been made.

Strut and tie modeling for RC short beams with corroded stirrups
Corrosion of steel reinforcement is one of the major problems that shorten the service life of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Steel stirrups, due to their location as an outer reinforcement, are more susceptible to corrosion problems and damage ...

Structural Performance of RC Beams containing Tension-Only Nodes
Strut and Tie (S&T) models are used for the design of what are known as “discontinuity regions” in reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Building codes such as ACI-318 and Eurocode 2 do not give information on the nodes that only connect ties in S&T ...

Experimental evaluation of optimized strut‐and‐tie models for a dapped beam
AbstractStrut‐and‐tie modelling constitutes a powerful tool for the design of complex structural reinforced concrete elements. It has been proved numerically that strut‐and‐tie (ST) models obtained using structural optimization methods produce designs that are more efficient.

ABSTRACT The North American channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus has successfully established populations across Europe; nevertheless, empirical data on its life‐history traits in this introduced area remain scarce. This study analyses age and growth of I. punctatus in the Po and Arno, two of Italy's principal river systems. Specimens of I.

Because of nonlinear strain distributions caused either by abrupt changes in geometry or in loading in deep beam, the approach for conventional beams is not applicable.

Enhanced strut-and-tie model for reinforced concrete pile caps
Strut-and-tie models provide a simple and rational way to design discontinuity regions in reinforced concrete structures. However, when it comes to three-dimensional concrete elements such as pile caps, enhancements are needed to ensure a reliable and ...

Osteohistology of two phorusrhacids reveals uninterrupted growth strategy
Abstract Phorusrhacidae were apex predators that primarily dominated South America ecosystems for at least 40 million years with their imposing size and predatory lifestyle—yet some aspects of their biology remain poorly understood. Osteohistology is a tool for understanding growth dynamics and biomechanical adaptations.
