Nonlinear Phased Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Tunnels Under Fire Exposure
Giovanna Lilliu, Alberto MedaFire analysis of precast segmental tunnels involves several problems, mainly related to the soil-structure interaction during fire exposure, coupled with material degradation…
Numerical Analysis of High Strength Steel Endplate Connections at Ambient and Elevated Temperatures
Xuhong Qiang, Frans Bijlaard, Henk Kolstein, Leen TwiltThis paper deals with the behaviour of high strength steel (HSS) endplate connections at ambient and elevated temperatures using ABAQUS. The detailed FE model considers material…
Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Localised Fire on Glazing Facades Having Different Orientations
Michael Quinn, Ali Nadjai, Faris Ali, Abid Abu-TairBreakage and fallout of glazing systems create openings in an enclosure that affect the fire growth and the development of post flashover flames emerging outside of the openings…
Full-Probabilistic Analysis of Concrete Beams During Fire
Ruben Van Coile, Emmanuel Annerel, Robby Caspeele, Luc TaerweAsimplified full-probabilistic calculation tool is developed which is capable of calculating the bending moment capacity of simply supported beams exposed to fire. It is found…
Behaviour of Frame Columns in Localised Fires
Ruirui Sun, Ian Burgess, Zhaohui HuangA static/dynamic version of the software Vulcan has recently been developed, in which the numerical singularity of a static analysis, induced by a local instability of a…
Effects of Combustible Stacking in Large Compartments
Filippo Gentili, Luisa Giuliani, Franco BontempiThis paper focuses on the modelling of fire in case of various distributions of combustible materials in a large compartment.Large compartments often represent a challenge for…
