Simplified expressions for reliability assessments in code calibration
(2022-04)
Article
Open AccessFirst Order Reliability Methods (FORM) have been used by specification committees in the reliability analyses required for the calibration of resistance and safety factors for the past 40 years. However, these methods are ... -
Theoretical prediction of the shear strength of reinforced concrete slabs under concentrated loads close to linear supports
(2021-10)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyA mechanical model has been developed by the authors in order to predict the shear strength of reinforced concrete slabs under concentrated loads close to linear supports. Such situation takes place very often in bridge ... -
Validation of numerical models of the offshore wind turbine from the alpha ventus wind farm against full-scale measurements within OC5 Phase III
(2021-02)
Article
Open AccessThe main objective of the Offshore Code Comparison Collaboration Continuation, with Correlation (OC5) project is validation of aero-hydro-servo-elastic simulation tools for offshore wind turbines (OWTs) through comparison ... -
Experimental response of a scaled dry-joint masonry arch subject to inclined support displacements
(Elsevier, 2022-02)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policySupport displacements are a major cause of damage to masonry arches. In the last decades, the effect of large support displacements on the stability of masonry arches has been widely investigated. However, there is still ... -
Experimental investigation of the shear strength of one-way reinforced concrete (RC) slabs subjected to concentrated loads and in-plane transverse axial tension
(2021-12)
Article
Open AccessThis paper presents the results of an experimental campaign carried out to investigate the effects of in-plane transverse tensile forces on the shear strength of linearly supported one-way reinforced concrete (RC) slabs ... -
System-based reliability analysis of stainless steel frames subjected to gravity and wind loads
(2022-07)
Article
Open AccessIn the process of developing the next generation of design standards for steel structures, most relevant international structural codes including AISC 360, AISC 370, AS/NZS 4100 and Eurocode 3 already incorporate preliminary ... -
Material behaviour of austenitic stainless steel subjected to cyclic and arbitrary loading
(2022-02)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn this paper, an experimental program on cyclic loading of austenitic stainless steel specimens is presented. The program encompasses a series of forty specimens subjected both cyclic (low and extremely low) and arbitrary ... -
Open-source terrestrial laser scanner for the virtualization of geometrical entities in AEC classrooms
(2022-02-10)
Article
Open AccessThis paper depicts a case study that shows an open-source Terrestrial Laser Scanner (TLS) for use on the virtualization of simple yet precise geometrical entities in AEC classrooms. For bringing this technology to AEC ... -
Patch loading resistance of steel plate girders stiffened with triangular cell flanges
(Elsevier, 2022-04)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis paper aims at investigating the patch loading resistance of steel plate girders with triangular cell flanges. This geometrical arrangement increases considerably the resistance of the web plates when subjected to ... -
Water-washed fine and coarse recycled aggregates for real scale concretes production in Barcelona
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2022-01)
Article
Open AccessThe use of recycled aggregate to reduce the over-exploitation of raw aggregates is necessary. This study analysed and categorised the properties of water-washed, fine and coarse, recycled aggregates following European ... -
Influence of the imperfection direction on the ultimate response of steel frames in advanced analysis
(2022-03)
Article
Open AccessInitial geometric imperfections are unavoidable in steel members and frames due to erection and manufacturing tolerances. These include frame out-of-plumbness, member out-of-straightness and cross-sectional imperfections, ... -
Quasi-dynamic mooring line model
(2022-01-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe quasi-dynamic mooring line model is a new approach to assess the mooring line tension that considers the static solution of the catenary shape, but updates the distributed vertical force along the mooring line as a ...
