Numerical analysis of damage zones in a bridge
Mohammed Lamine Moussaoui, Mohamed ChabaatThe purpose of this paper is to present a numerical analysis of structural monitoring for damage zones detection. The study is performed with Ansys finite element software, which…
Performance assessment of steel structures with semi-rigid joints in seismic areas
Said Hicham Boukhalkhal, Abd Nacer Touati Ihaddoudène, Luis Filipe Da Costa Neves, Pedro Colmar Gonçalves da Silva Vellasco, Wafa MadiIt is well known that the real behaviour of joints lies between the ideal pinned or rigid joint responses. Additionally the influence of this behaviour on the global structural…
Finite element approaching analysis of load localization and identification for smart structures
Hua Li, Lufeng JiaThe purpose of this paper is to propose a numerical approaching analysis method combining the sequential unconstrained minimization technique and finite element method to identify…
Experimental validation of the proposed technique for condition monitoring of structure using limited noisy modal data
Jafar Ali, Debasish BandyopadhyayCondition monitoring (CM) of structures is important from safety consideration. Damage detection techniques, using inverse dynamic approaches, are important tools to improve the…
Effective factors in achieving an accurate finite element simulation of shear links
Javad Tashakori, Sara Ansari, Javad RazzaghiDuring severe earthquakes, the inelastic energy dissipation of eccentrically braced frame system depends on shear links performance. A finite element model can predict links…
Condition monitoring of structures using limited noisy data modal slope and curvature of mode shapes
Jafar Ali, Debasish BandyopadhyayCondition monitoring (CM) has become significantly important, particularly in the context of ensuring safety, reliability and future usefulness of civil infrastructural systems…
Strength model of FRP confined concrete columns based on analytical analysis and experimental test
Mahfoud Touhari, Ratiba Kettab MiticheCovering a fiber-reinforced concrete column (fiber reinforced plastic (FRP)) improves the performance of the column primarily. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the…
Static analysis of thermoset-thermoplastic-based hybrid composite
Sai Krishna Chitturi, A.A. Shaikh, Alpesh H. MakwanaA growing response in the development of hybrid composites to conquer the deficiency of neat composites has provoked doing this work. Thermoplastic Polycarbonate material offers…
Damage mechanism of giant orthogonal grid barrel vault under strong earthquake
Lin Qi, Wenbo Zhang, Ronglai Sun, Fang LiuGiant orthogonal grid barrel vault is generated by deleting members in the inessential force transfer path of the two-layer lattice barrel vault. Consisting of members in the…
Numerical investigation on the behaviour of concrete in-filled cold-formed duplex stainless steel square tubular column
Saranya Ilango, Sunil MahatoConcrete in-filled stainless steel square tubular column combines both the benefits of concrete and steel material, providing enhanced ductility and high compressive strength to…
