Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsInvestigation of Sandwich Panel Under High Temperature Loading Using Finite Element AnalysisSajjad Sayyar Roudsari, Armaghan Shalbaftabar, Taher M. Abu-Lebdeh et al.Structural and nonstructural members are always encountered with extreme loading conditions. In case of nonstructural members, the failure happens much sooner due to lack of load capacity. The nonstructural elements are not designed for structural loading conditions. However, they might be impacted to other loading types such as fire. In recent years, the use of 3D panel is one of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 1 Jul 2020 · 7,678 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Effect of Using Hysteresis Models (Bilinear and Modified Clough) on Seismic Demands of Single Degree of Freedom SystemsAhmad N. Tarawneh, Sereen A. Majdalaweyh, Bassam Z. MahasnehBased on nonlinear inelastic dynamic analysis of Single Degree Of Freedom systems (SDOF), this work investigates the effect of different parameters on the seismic response of these systems. Generalized SDOF systems that present both short and long period structures are subjected to two sets of synthetic ground motions according to the site condition; stiff rock site and stiff soil one, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 8 · 17 Aug 2016 · 7,729 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAnalysis of the Interaction between the Lining of a TBM Tunnel and the Ground Using the Convergence-Confinement MethodPierpaolo OresteThe support used when a tunnel is excavated by a shielded TBM is complex because it consists of two different materials: A concrete segmental lining and a filler annulus between the lining and the tunnel wall. A detailed analysis of the behavior of such a support system requires a three-dimensional numerical modeling and should also consider the presence of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 17 Jun 2015 · 7,183 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsFlexural Behaviors of Damaged Full-Scale Highway Bridge Girder Strengthened by External Post TensionSayan Sirimontree, Jaruek TeerawongProblem statement: Prestressed Concrete (PC) I section girder with Reinforced Concrete (RC) topping slab has been widely applied to long span bridge girders for several years. A bridge girder is subjected to severe conditions caused by an aggressive environment and overloading. A crack can be initiated and propagate when the tensile stress exceeds the tensile strength of concrete due to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 5 Nov 2010 · 8,670 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Study of the Effect of Infilled Brick Walls on Behavior of Eccentrically Braced Frames Using Explicit Finite Elements MethodAmir Saedi Daryan, Masood Ziaei, Ali Golafshar et al.Problem statement: Eccentrically Braced Frames (EBFs) are usually infilled by masonry walls, but in common design, the stiffness and lateral resistance of these walls is ignored. Considering the results of carried out tests and studies, it seems that infilled masonry walls have a significant influence on the stiffness and the strength of EBFs. Since experimental test of total frame with … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,191 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsExperimental Investigation on Three Dimensional RC Infilled Frame - RC Plane Frame Interactions With Slab for Seismic ResistanceSuyamburaja Arulselvan, K. SubramanianExperimental investigation was planned and conducted to study the influence of brick masonry infill and slab in a three-dimensional reinforced cement concrete frame. In this study, one-fifth scale 3D R.C frame representing single story, three bays with central bay brick infill at the sides and a long single bay without infill in the middle of the frame along loading direction … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,313 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsExperimental and Theoretical Analysis of a Novel Flexible Membrane Tactile SensorGoldis Darb Emamieh, Ahmad Ameri, Siamak Najarian, Ali Tavakoli GolpayganiIn this study, we report the development of a new multi tactile sensor, capable of detecting 2D surface texture image, measuring contact-force, and identifying the difference between stiffness of sensed objects. The designed tactile sensor consists of a chamber and a membrane with a mesa structure. The detecting principle is a combination of membrane deflection and piezoresistance effects. A major … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 7,184 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTransversely Cracked Beam's Finite Elements with a Hinged EndM. Skrinar, T. PliberšekTwo new beam finite-elements to be used for the transverse displacement analysis of slender beams with transverse cracks are presented where the derivations are based on a simplified computational model. The beam stiffness matrixes are presented in symbolic forms for beams with a single transverse crack and a hinge at one of the nodes. Since in the derivations the corresponding … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2008 · 6,913 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFusing CNN Models for Improved Parkinson’s Disease Detection from Handwritten FeaturesSabrina Benredjem, Tahar MekhazniaNeurodegenerative Diseases (NGD) are a group of progressive neurological disorders, including cognitive decline as Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) and Parkinson’s Disease (PD) that result in the progressive loss of neuronal structure or function. This can lead to a variety of symptoms, in this study we are interested in PD one of the neurological diseases that causes the loss of dopamine-producing neurons … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 22 Jan 2025 · 6,306 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStructural Performance of Double Laminated Glass Panels with EVA and PVB Interlayer in Four-Point Bending TestsTomáš Hána, Martina Eliášová, Zdeněk SokolMany examples of glass loadbearing structures such as handrails, panes, beams and columns can be found in modern architecture. Most of these elements are made of laminated glass panels. There is a general lack of knowledge about the transfer of shear forces between the glass plies in perpendicularly-loaded laminated panels. This transfer depends significantly on the stiffness of the polymeric … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 14 Aug 2018 · 13,274 accessesView PDFCite
