Full-scale tests on segmental lining with mechanically cut cross-passage opening
(2024-09)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe mechanical cutting of the tunnel segmental lining to form a cross passage is typically performed in soft soil. This method can shorten the construction period and reduce environmental pollution compared with the freezing ... -
Ladle furnace slag as a new source of supplementary cementitious material: evaluating long-term performance and environmental impact in Portland cement systems
(Elsevier, 2024-10)
Article
Open AccessPortland cement (OPC) and steelmaking industries exhibit high production levels and will continue to grow to meet global infrastructure/urbanization requirements. However, their production processes are not environmentally ... -
Efficient beam-based model for reinforced concrete walls considering shear-flexure interaction
(Elsevier, 2024-09)
Article
Open AccessThis paper presents an efficient beam-based modelling scheme for the seismic analysis of reinforced concrete structural walls. The model combines a force-based beam element with a fibre section for flexural response and a ... -
Predictive modelling of cooling consumption in nursing homes using artificial neural networks: implications for energy efficiency and thermal comfort
(Elsevier, 2024-12)
Article
Open AccessThe growing need for cooling within the built environment, propelled by climate change and the expansion of nursing homes due to the increase in life expectancy, highlights the urgency of implementing energy-efficient ... -
Bayesian-updated POD of ultrasonic tomography in the inspection of PT bridges
(2024)
Conference report
Open AccessThe present research aims to furnish a proper methodology for the reliability assessment of non-destructive tests in the particular field of inspection of post-tensioned (PT) structures. The focus is on the Ultrasonic ... -
Reliability of UT for the grouting inspection in PT bridges: a case study
(2024)
Conference report
Open AccessThe inspection of the condition of prestressing steel in post-tensioned structures is a challenging issue because of the potential presence of corrosion in the tendons not warned by any other visible degradation condition. ... -
Evaluation of Low-cost Adaptable Reliable Accelerometer (LARA) technology
(2024)
Conference report
Open AccessStructural health monitoring (SHM) applications are gaining increasing attention because they enable the early detection and characterization of damage during a prevention phase. Furthermore, SHM can also provide useful ... -
Material characterization for HBIM data structures on a masonry arch bridge
(CRC Press, 2024)
Conference report
Open AccessThis paper presents a set of undertaken actions for characterizing masonry arch bridges using data structure suitable for proper embedment in Digital Twins and Heritage Building Information Modelling (HBM). Interfaces in ... -
Structural design in the era of digital twins: a case study
(International Association on Automation and Robotics in Construction (IAARC), 2024)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyDigital Twins (DT) represent a technology that provides a way to encompass useful information of built assets for the sake of productivity enhancement in the AECO sector. Its adoption in the industry is still at early ... -
Shear behaviour and theoretical model of large shear key dry joints in precast concrete segmental bridges using advanced monitoring
(Taylor & Francis Group, 2024-05)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyKeyed dry joints are commonly utilised in segmental bridges for shear stress transmission. The aim of this study is to explore the shear behaviour and capacity of large shear key dry joints. The considered parameters ... -
Eigenfrequency analysis of bridges using a smartphone and a novel low-cost accelerometer prototype
(2024-05)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyResearchers are paying increasing attention to the development of low-cost and microcontroller-based accelerometers, in order to make structural health monitoring feasible for conventional bridges with limited monitoring ... -
A building classification system for multi-hazard risk assessment of historical religious buildings
(National Technical University of Athens, 2023)
Conference report
Open AccessUnReinforced Masonry (URM) religious buildings have proven to require special attention in the context of natural hazards risk assessment due to their high vulnerability – connected to aging and types of construction — and ...
