Short-term behavior of glass fiber-polymer composite bending-active elastica beam under service load application

Thomas Keller, Landolf-Giosef-Anastasios Rhode-Barbarigos, Tara Habibi

Bending-active elastica beam is a structural configuration that is based on the elastic deformation of an initially straight beam. This deformation occurs when horizontal displacements are applied to a sliding support, causing the beam to bend into an arch ...

Porous Nitride Light-Emitting Diodes

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Nicolas Tappy

A porous InGaN/GaN blue light-emitting diode is demonstrated using selective area sublimation. Transmission electron microscopy reveals that the structure is porous down to the Si substrate; however, the porosity is higher in the GaN buffer, while smaller ...

Load history effects in fibre-reinforced polymer composite materials

Abdolvahid Movahedirad

Today, it is widely accepted that fatigue is one of the most common failure mechanisms in structural components, and pure static failure is rarely observed. Engineering structures are subjected to complex mechanical fatigue loading histories, which cause d ...

The Critical Shear Crack Theory for punching design: from a mechanical model to closed-form design expressions

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz

The Critical Shear Crack Theory (CSCT) is a consistent approach used for shear design of one- and two-way slabs failing in shear and punching shear respectively. The theory is based on a mechanical model allowing to determine the amount of shear force that ...

Analogy between Sustained Loading and Strain Rate Effects on the Nonlinear Creep Response of Concrete

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Darko Tasevski

This paper investigates the uniaxial compression behaviour of concrete under different strain rates and its relation to sustained loading. The aim is to observe the strain rate effect on the pre- and post-peak behaviour of concrete. In particular, the deve ...
