Analytical procedure for the design of PFRP-RC hybrid beams including shear interaction effects
(2015-11-15)
Article
Accés obertHybrid beams made of pultruded fiber-reinforced polymer (PFRP) shapes connected to reinforced concrete (RC) slabs are regarded as novel cost-effective and structurally-efficient elements. The current study addresses the ... -
Crystallization, phase evolution and corrosion of Fe-based metallic glasses: An atomic-scale structural and chemical characterization study
(2014-06-01)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialUnderstanding phase changes, including their formation and evolution, is critical for the performance of functional as well as structural materials. We analyze in detail microstructural and chemical transformations of the ... -
Effect of processing and wearing on viscoelastic modeling of polylactide/wool and polyester/wool woven fabrics subjected to bursting
(2014-11-01)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialPolyester fibers (PET) are greatly used in textiles but depend on fossil fuel resources. Poly-(lactic acid) (PLA) is an aliphatic polyester that can be derived from 100% renewable resources. The load-extension plot of a ... -
Effect of texturing on porosity and critical dissolution time of polyamide 6.6 multifilaments
(2014-02-01)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialThe anomalous behaviour of polyamide 6.6 fibres textured by false twist to different physico-chemical techniques (as the critical dissolution time, CDT), compared with those obtained in polyester fibres, was attributed to ... -
Improving the functional properties of (K0.5Na0.5)NbO3 piezoceramics by acceptor doping
(Elsevier, 2015-01-01)
Article
Accés obertZrO2 and TiO2 modified lead-free (K0.5Na0.5)NbO3 (KNN) piezoelectric ceramics are prepared by a conventional solid-state reaction. The effect of acceptor doping on structural and functional properties is investigated. A ... -
Intrinsic scatter of FRC: an alternative philosophy to estimate characteristic values
(2015-11)
Article
Accés obertThe results from small-scale laboratory tests of fibre reinforced concrete (FRC) usually show a high scatter. However, several studies indicate that the real scatter on the post-cracking response of the material reduces ... -
Material and local buckling response of ferritic stainless steel sections
(2015-04)
Article
Accés obertAn investigation into the material response and local buckling behaviour of ferritic stainless steel structural cross-sections is presented in this paper. Particular attention is given to the strain hardening characteristics ... -
Modeling the response of shoreface-connected sand ridges to sand extraction on an inner shelf
(2014-05-01)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialShoreface-connected sand ridges are rhythmic bedforms that occur on many storm-dominated inner shelves. The ridges span several kilometers, are a few meters high, and they evolve on a timescale of centuries. A process-based ... -
New approach to assessing fabric drape based on the fractal dimension
(2015-09-01)
Article
Accés obertThe usefulness of the fractal dimension of drape (D) to explain the shape of fabrics acquired when allowed to fall freely under the effect of gravity was assessed by using the box-counting method to calculate it for ... -
New short T6 heat treatments for aluminium silicon alloys obtained by semisolid forming
(2014-11-07)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialIn this work the heat treatment response of SSM processed A356 and A357 casting alloys was analysed. The development of a new T6 heat treatment, with solution times less than 30 mm has been allowed. In this new short heat ... -
Pull-out of textile reinforcement in concrete
(2014-11-30)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialTextile Reinforced Concrete (TRC) has emerged as a promising novel alternative offering corrosion resistance and both thinner and light-weight structures. Although TRC has been extensively researched, the formalization of ... -
Revealing additional preference heterogeneity with an extended random parameter logit model: the case of extra virgin olive oil
(2014-09-01)
Article
Accés obertMethods that account for preference heterogeneity have received a significant amount of attention in recent literature. Most of them have focused on preference heterogeneity around the mean of the random parameters, which ... -
Reversible changes induced by temperature in the spherulitic birefringence of nylon 6 9
(Elsevier, 2015-10-12)
Article
Accés obertSpherulitic morphologies of nylon 6 9 as an example of an even-odd nylon were studied by optical microscopy. A well-defined dependence on crystallization temperature was found. In particular, positively birefringent ... -
Rheology of fresh concretes with recycled aggregates
(2014-12-30)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialThe most frequently used measure of rheology is the slump test, which evaluates workability. Since this value is often operator-sensitive, a more quantitative estimate can be derived in terms of fundamental physical ... -
