Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsUncertainty Assessment for the Buckling Analysis of Glass Columns with Random ParametersMohammad Momeni, Chiara BedonLoad-bearing elements composed of glass, as known, are often susceptible to buckling collapse mechanisms. This intrinsic characteristic (and thus potential limitation for design) typically derives from the use of relatively small thicknesses to cover large spans and surfaces, thus resulting in a multitude of columns, beams, or plates that are characterized by high slenderness. In the literature, accordingly, several and … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 22 Dec 2020 · 6,295 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPreliminary Experimental and Finite-Element Numerical Assessment of the Structural Performance of SMA-Reinforced GFRP SystemsFilipe Amarante dos Santos, Chiara BedonIn this study, the feasibility and potentiality of a novel design concept is explored by means of small scale experimental tests and Finite-Element numerical simulation. Taking advantage of the intrinsic potentiality of Shape-Memory Alloys wires able to work as adaptive actuators when subjected to joule heating, a 'smart-GFRP' concept consisting in Glass-Fiber-Reinforced-Polymer (GFRP) structural members with a SMA reinforcement is … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 27 Sep 2016 · 8,289 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Unified Approach for the Shear Buckling Design of Structural Glass Walls with Non-Ideal RestraintsChiara Bedon, Claudio AmadioIn this study, a unified design approach is assessed and proposed for the shear buckling verification of structural glass walls supported by non-ideal restraints. Based on the current trends of practice in buildings, the effect of (i) adhesive joints, (ii) metal frames with interposed adhesive joints or (iii) point mechanical connectors on the actual shear buckling behavior of the examined … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 22 Jan 2016 · 8,287 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Analytical and Numerical Results for the Charring Rate of the Timber-Concrete BeamZuzana Kamenická, Jaroslav Sandanus, Lukáš Blesák et al.Modelling the thermal response of timber is a primary issue for the assessment of the mechanical resistance of timber structures exposed to fire. Therefore, this paper analyses various advanced calculation methods of determining the charring rate. Authors of this contribution use analytical calculation methods according to two different publications and also a numerical calculation by means of program based on … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 4 Jun 2018 · 6,688 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFINITE VOLUME METHOD OF MODELLING TRANSIENT GROUNDWATER FLOWN. Muyinda, G. Kakuba, J. M. MangoIn the field of computational fluid dynamics, the finite volume method is dominant over other numerical techniques like the finite difference and finite element methods because the underlying physical quantities are conserved at the discrete level. In the present study, the finite volume method is used to solve an isotropic transient groundwater flow model to obtain hydraulic heads and flow … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 15 Feb 2014 · 7,108 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Application of Finite Element Modelling to Pneumatic Artificial MuscleR. Ramasamy, M. R. Juhari, M. R. Mamat et al.The purpose of this article was to introduce and to give an overview of the Pneumatic Artificial Muscles (PAMs) as a whole and to discuss its numerical modelling, using the Finite Element (FE) Method. Thus, more information to understand on its behaviour in generating force for actuation was obtained. The construction of PAMs was mainly consists of flexible, inflatable membranes … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2005 · 7,663 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordProgressive Damage Modelling of Transverse Impact Behavior of Adhesively Bonded Composite JointsDimitrios Athinaios, Konstantinos Tserpes, Giannis FlorosA three-dimensional dynamic numerical model was developed, using the commercially available finite element software LS-DYNA to simulate the Low Velocity Impact (LVI) case on bonded joints consisting of woven CFRP adherents. The adhesive failure simulated using the Cohesive Zone Method (CZM), while the failures in the composite material simulated using a progressive damage material model based on Hashin’s failure criteria. … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 3 Apr 2020 · 6,424 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordDynamics Modelling of a Plate Vibrating in a Perfect FluidBouarroudj Nadra, Belaib LekhmissiWe deal with the interaction problem of a plate vibrating within a perfect fluid. We establish the equations describing the dynamics behaviour of the plate using the general equations of the elasto-dynamic. The fluid flow described by the equation of Euler’s low amplitude. We presented results of the existence, the unicity and the regularity of the problem verified by the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,896 accessesView PDFCite
