Performance-based Design of Energy Pile Foundations

Alessandro Francesco Rotta Loria

Over the past twenty years, an increasing amount of research has been performed to understand the multiphysical behaviour and to address the geotechnical and structural design of so-called energy piles, i.e. deep foundations that can serve any superstructu ...

The Deformation Capacity of Lap Splices in RC Walls: From Experimental Testing to Numerical Modelling

Danilo Tarquini

Field observations as well as experimental tests have shown that both the strength and displacement capacity of reinforced concrete (RC) members might be significantly reduced by the presence of lap splices. This degradation applies in particular if the lo ...

Strengthening of metallic members under mixed mode fatigue loading using prestressed CFRP plates

Ardalan Hosseini

The strengthening of existing steel structures against high-cycle fatigue (HCF) loading has become one of the most important topics of interest in structural rehabilitation. Apart from the conventional strengthening techniques that incorporate bulky and he ...

Equivalent pier analysis of full-scale pile groups subjected to mechanical and thermal loads

Lyesse Laloui, Alessandro Francesco Rotta Loria

This study presents an equivalent pier analysis of the vertical deformation and displacement of full-scale pile groups subjected to mechanical and thermal loads that are associated with a structural support and a geothermal heat exchanger operation, respec ...
