Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEducational Challenges in Computer-based Finite Element Analysis and Design of StructuresVagelis Plevris, Gro MarkesetComputer simulations and computational methods, such as the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) have become essential methodologies in science and engineering during the last decades, in a wide variety of academic fields. Six decades after the invention of the digital computer, advanced FE simulations are used to enhance and leapfrog theoretical and experimental progress, at different levels of complexity. Particularly in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 10 · 26 Oct 2018 · 8,634 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractKey Structural Aspects for Adaptive Facades - Activity Progress from the EU-COST Action TU1403 ‘Structural’ Task GroupChiara Bedon, Dániel Honfi, Marcin Kozłowski et al.Adaptive facades are getting more and more widespread in modern buildings. These facade systems, among many others, need to fulfil the requirements of several structural considerations, such as structural safety, serviceability, durability, robustness and fire safety, being typically defined for standard facades and building enclosures in general. The current paper discusses special structural characteristics which need to be taken into … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 25 Jun 2018 · 13,380 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuantitative Analysis of the Pb Concentration in Dust Fall in Zahedan in the Winter of 2014Sara Abdollahi, Akram Karimi, Meysam Madadi et al.Dust is considered as one of the atmospheric phenomena that inappropriately influences the environment. Falling dust contains particles with the size of 100 microns or less, which falls from atmosphere on the surface of the earth. This study aimed at determining the Pb concentration in falling dust samples in order to investigate the urban pollution caused by this element. To … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 11 May 2018 · 7,988 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Study of the Behavior of Single-Sided Protruding SlabsReza Salehi, Abbas Akbarpour Nikghalb RashtiDue to the high seismicity of our regions, engineers have always sought to provide various solutions to improve the performance of buildings and consequences control of powerful earthquakes. Building Lighting is one of the methods used to reduce earthquake forces. The use of prefabricated slabs is one of the ways to reduce the dead load of a building. In this … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 4 May 2018 · 8,186 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn-Plane Behavior of Infills using Glass Fiber Shear Connectors in Textile Reinforced Mortar (TRM) TechniqueFarhad Akhoundi, Graça Vasconcelos, Paulo LourençoMasonry has a widespread use in the construction of the buildings even in reinforced concrete or steel frames. Past earthquakes have demonstrated the vulnerability of masonry infills resulted in the human life losses and economic costs. Recently innovative strengthening techniques such as Textile Reinforced Mortar technique (TRM) is used for enhancing the seismic response of the infills. Different procedures were … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 14 Jan 2018 · 9,090 accessesView PDFCite
