Seismic vulnerability of multi-span continuous girder bridges with steel fibre reinforced concrete columns
Published 2017-01-01
The occurrence of earthquakes during the lifetime of bridges can result in the closure or even the failure of the structure. The vulnerability of multi-span continuous girder (MSCG) bridges strongly depends on the seismic ...

Numerical modelling of concrete beams at serviceability conditions with a discrete crack approach and noniterative solution-finding algorithms
Published 2017-01-01
This paper describes the development and validation of a comprehensive numerical model enabling the simulation of reinforced concrete beams at serviceability conditions using a discrete crack approach. The highly non-linear ...

Crack propagation monitoring using an image deformation approach
Published 2017-01-01
An image deformation method is herein proposed to monitor the crack propagation in structures. The proposed approach is based on a computational algorithm that uses displacements measured by photogrammetry or image correlation ...

Shear strength of cross laminated timber-concrete connections reinforced with carbon fibre polymer composites
Published 2018-01-01
This paper presents an experimental study on the mechanical behaviour of four different timber concrete composite (TCC) connections. Experimental shear tests were conducted to assess the strength and stiffness of the ...

Transcatheter non-contact microwave ablation may enable circumferential renal artery denervation while sparing the vessel intima and media
Published 2019-04-17
Aims: Trials of transcatheter renal artery denervation (RDN) have failed to show consistent antihypertensive efficacy. Procedural factors and limitations of radiofrequency ablation can lead to incomplete denervation. The ...

Numerical and analytical investigation of load transfer through eccentric columns with different cross sections
Published 2017-01-01
Eccentric columns are not a common feature in concrete building structures. However, late changes in floor layouts and constraints due to available spaces may enforce structural designers to use eccentric columns to transfer ...

Influence of type and dosage of micro-fibres on the physical properties of fibre reinforced mortar matrixes
Published 2018-01-01
An experimental study is herein presented focusing the physical properties of fibre-reinforced mortar. A reference mortar mixture was adopted and three different types of reinforcement with micro fibres (steel, polypropylene ...

Influence of rebar diameter in concrete cracking studied using a discrete crack approach
Published 2017-01-01
The ability to model fracture propagation is critical to predict the structural response of a concrete member and possible failure mechanisms. Even for structures under normal service loads, good estimations on the overall ...

Influence of fibres on the mechanical behaviour of fibre reinforced concrete matrixes
Published 2017-01-01
An experimental analysis focused on the mechanical behaviour of fibre reinforced concrete matrixes (FRCM) is presented using a total of three hundred and twelve specimens. A reference plain mixture was first defined and ...
