Learning in engineering through design, construction, analysis and experimentation
(Tempus Publications, 2019)
Article
Open AccessThe experience presented is part of the teaching of two subjects of the Mechanics discipline: Continuum Mechanics and Strength of Materials, in the field of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering. In the bachelor’s degree ... -
Determination of the Elasticity Modulus of 3D-Printed Octet-Truss Structures for Use in Porous Prosthesis Implants
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2018-11-29)
Article
Open AccessIn tissue engineering, scaffolds can be obtained by means of 3D printing. Different structures are used in order to reduce the stiffness of the solid material. The present article analyzes the mechanical behavior of ... -
Statistical modeling and mix design optimization of fly ash based engineered geopolymer composite using response surface methodology
(2018-09-01)
Article
Open AccessFly ash-based geopolymer binders have been identified as one of the alternatives to the Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC), which qualify the criteria of green construction material. In the process of enhancement of the ... -
Mechanical properties of pre-stressed fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix composite (PFRCM)
(Elsevier, 2018-12-10)
Article
Open AccessFabric Reinforced Cementitious Matrix (FRCM) is a composite strengthening material used to strengthen masonry and concrete structures in a passive way due to the requirement of crack activation. Prestressing fabric is ... -
Experimental study on ferritic stainless steel trapezoidal decks for composite slabs in construction stage
(2019-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe use of composite floor slabs is well established and provides an opportunity to promote the use of visually exposed composite slabs. Stainless steels, with the combination of good mechanical properties and excellent ... -
Additioning alfa fibres in cement mortar
(Universidad Católica de Chile (UC), 2018)
Article
Open AccessCement mortar is a broadly used construction material. Adding fibres into the fresh mortar is an effective reinforcing technique to overcome the drawbacks related with the little tensile and flexural strength. Using natural ... -
Experimental and analytical flexural performances of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with post-tensioned near surface mounted basalt composite laminates
(Elsevier, 2019-01-15)
Article
Open AccessNear surface mounted (NSM) is a technique that improves the strengthening capacity of composite laminates. The use of a post-tensioning technique modifies the performance of the strengthening because it is active bearing ... -
Mechanical performance of vegetal fabric reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) composites
(Elsevier, 2018-06-30)
Article
Open AccessIn order to pursue sustainable objectives in the construction industry, a new composite material using vegetal fibre mesh coated with resin and embedded in mortar is developed and characterized. In this study, meshes of ... -
Experimental investigation on ferritic stainless steel composite slabs
(2018-11)
Article
Open AccessSteel-concrete composite structures are well established in the construction of floors and roofing, being interesting solutions as steel decks act as formwork for relatively large spans and support the weight of the concrete ... -
Experimental comparison of reinforced concrete beams strengthened against bending with different types of cementitious-matrix composite materials
(Elsevier, 2017-04-15)
Article
Open AccessFabric-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) materials overcome some hazard limitations of organic resins and are becoming a competitive technology on retrofitting reinforced concrete structures. In this work, five types ... -
Reduced order modeling strategies for computational multiscale fracture
(2017-01)
Article
Open AccessThe paper proposes some new computational strategies for affordably solving multiscale fracture problems through a FE2 approach. To take into account the mechanical effects induced by fracture at the microstructure level ... -
On the static strength of aluminium and carbon fibre aircraft lap joint repairs
(2018-10-01)
Article
Open AccessThe behaviour of various aircraft lap joint repair configurations is investigated experimentally and numerically under static loading. The lap joints consist of aluminium alloy (AA) 2024-T3 substrates repaired with twin ...
