Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNumerical 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 · 8,178 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalytical Study of Bending Behavior for Concrete Beams with T-Shaped Cross Section using Composite and Steel BarsSeyedeh Zahra Hosseini Ghaziyani, Seyedamin Mostafavian, Meysam Azizpour ChiraniTodays, instead of steel reinforcements, Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) rebars have been using in the reinforced concrete structures. By consideration of different strain-stress behavior between steel and composite material, it is necessary to evaluate the difference of these two materials inside of RC beams. In this research, twelve reinforced concrete T-shape beams were modeled using ABAQUS finite element software. Six … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 2 Jun 2018 · 8,535 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPiezoelectric Co-Rotational 3-Node Shell ElementGil Rama, Dragan Marinkovic, Manfred ZehnGeometrically nonlinear FE-analysis of active piezoelectric thin-walled shell structures, based on a Co-Rotational (CR) formulation and the Cell-Smoothed Discrete-Shear-Gap 3-node shell element (CS-DSG3) is presented in this study. The electric potential across the thickness of piezolayers is approximated by a linear function. The basic assumption of the applied Co-Rotational (CR) FEM formulation is that translations and rotations are finite, whereas … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 15 Oct 2016 · 7,810 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficient Co-Rotational 3-Node Shell ElementGil Rama, Dragan Marinkovic, Manfred ZehnGeometric nonlinear FE-analysis of thin-walled shell structures, using a co-rotational formulation and the Cell Smoothed Discrete Shear Gap triangular shell element (CS-DSG3) is presented in this study. The CS-DSG3 element formulation uses the Mindlin-Reissner kinematic hypothesis to include transverse shear effects. In order to avoid locking effects Discrete Shear Gap (DSG) method is applied. In addition, cell based smoothing technique … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 17 Jun 2016 · 8,295 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCompressive and Shear Analysis of Rubber Block Under Large StrainK. Sridharan, R. SivaramakrishnanThe Elastomeric materials have found use in a wide range of applications, including hoses, tires, gaskets, seals, vibration isolators, bearings and dock fenders. The analysis of rubber blocks for its compression and shear behavior has been carried out using the imaging techniques. The dynamic stressing and its associated change in shape of the rubber blocks during large compression are very … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 18 Jun 2013 · 6,740 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating some Reliability Analysis Methodologies in Seismic DesignA. El Ghoulbzouri, A. Khamlichi, F. Lopez Almansa et al.Problem statement: Accounting for uncertainties that were present in geometric and material data of reinforced concrete buildings was performed in this study within the context of performance based seismic engineering design. Approach: Reliability of the expected performance state is assessed by using various methodologies based on finite element nonlinear static pushover analysis and specialized reliability software package. Reliability approaches that … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 18 Aug 2011 · 7,843 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeismic Response Evaluation of Moment Resistant Frame with Built-Up Column SectionMohammad Ebrahimi, Hesam Sharifian, Mohammad AhangarProblem statement: Moment Resisting Frame (MRF) is widely used as lateral resisting systems when sufficient ductility and deformability are to be met. Response of these structures is strictly dependent upon behavior of their joints, whereas the analysis of steel moment resisting frames generally has been performed without considering the accurate connection behavior. Approach: In this study Finite Element (FE) models … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,279 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Joint Flexibility on Overall Behavior of Jacket Type Offshore PlatformsMasoud Mirtaheri, Hossein Ali Zakeri, Pejman Alanjari, Mohammad Amin AssarehProblem Statement: Nonlinear behavior of offshore structure is attracting tremendous amount of attention in recent years. Response of these structures is strictly dependent upon behavior of their joints. Because of the lack of information about this part of a structure, most of the recent analysis and designs do not contain appropriate material in the case of joints. In most cases, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,053 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordSeismic Performance Evaluation of Reinforced Concrete Moment Resisting Frames with Various Ductility in Low Seismic ZoneN. Choopool, V. BoonyapinyoProblem statement: Bangkok, the capital of Thailand, is at moderate risk for distant earthquake due to the ability of soft soil to amplify ground motion about 3-4 times although it locates in low seismic zone. In addition, before the enforcement of seismic loading for buildings in the Ministerial Law in 2007, many existing reinforced concrete buildings in Bangkok may have … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 27 Jan 2011 · 9,493 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordRepairing and Strengthening of an Existing Reinforced Concrete Building: A North Cyprus PerspectiveHakan Yalciner, Amir A. HedayatProblem statement: Inadequate attention during design and construction of some of Reinforced Concrete (RC) buildings in North Cyprus has raised questions about the performance level of these existing buildings under future earthquakes. Approach: Column jacketing, adding steel braces and new shear walls to an existing building are common strengthening methods used by practical engineers in North Cyprus to increase the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 9,787 accessesView PDFCite
