The potential of textile reinforced concrete for design of innovative structures

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Patricia Guaita, Raffael Baur, Patrick Lorenzo Valeri

Textile Reinforced Concrete (TRC) is a recent evolution of ordinary reinforced concrete. This relatively new construction material replaces steel reinforcement with high-strength, non-corrosive textile fabrics in order to reduce cover requirements to minim ...

Numerical Simulation of the Semi-Rigid Behaviour of Integrally Attached Timber Folded Surface Structures

Yves Weinand, Aryan Rezaei Rad, Anh Chi Nguyen, Andrea Stitic

Timber folded surface structures assembled using semi-rigid multiple tab and slot joints (MTSJ) have been shown to form feasible structural systems with high load bearing potential. However, for their further development and use on large building scales, a ...

Gas-Phase Ozone Reactions with a Structurally Diverse Set of Molecules: Barrier Heights and Reaction Energies Evaluated by Coupled Cluster and Density Functional Theory Calculations

Jeremy Samuel Arey, Peter Rudolf Tentscher, Daniela Trogolo

Reactions with ozone transform organic and inorganic molecules in water treatment systems as well as in atmospheric chemistry, either in the aqueous phase, at gas/particle interfaces, or in the gas phase. Computed thermokinetic data can be used to estimate ...

Three-dimensional finite element analysis of piled rafts with energy piles

Lyesse Laloui, Cristiano Garbellini

Over the last twenty years, the importance of environmentally friendly technologies in the field of construction has grown considerably. In this regard, energy piles are an innovative technology that combines the structural role of piles with that of a gro ...

A structural test for the conformal invariance of the critical 3d Ising model

João Miguel Augusto Penedones Fernandes, Pierre Mathieu Yvernay

How can a renormalization group fixed point be scale invariant without being conformal? Polchinski (1988) showed that this may happen if the theory contains a virial current a non-conserved vector operator of dimension exactly (d - 1), whose divergence exp ...

Structural Adaptation through Stiffness Tuning

Gennaro Senatore

Adaptive design strategies have been employed to improve structural performances in terms of load-bearing efficiency and energetic impact as well as to achieve multi-functionality. In this work, we investigate a passive adaptation strategy that employs var ...

Experimental testing of a small-scale truss beam that adapts to loads through large shape changes

Ian Smith, Gennaro Senatore, Arka Prabhata Reksowardojo

Adaptive structures can modify their shape and internal forces through sensing and actuation in order to maintain optimal performance under changing actions. Substantial whole-life energy can be saved with respect to traditional passive designs through wel ...
