RISSlope Stability Assessment Using a New Finite-Element Analysis with Emphasis on <i>K</i><sub>0</sub> and <i>ν</i> Mutual Influence on the Initial Stress Field
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A novel finite-element (FE) procedure for analyzing slope stability was recently developed and encoded into a Fortran computer code S4DINA 2.0. This innovative approach involves a gradual increment in the principal stress ...
Stress-Time-Temperature-Humidity Effects on Demination of Graphite/Epoxy Laminates
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The effect of sustained load and hygrothermal environments on Mode I delamination behavior of T300/934 unidirectional graphite/epoxy laminates has been studied. Several double cantilever beam ...
Closure to “Cost Predictions of Facilities” by John Christian and Amar Pandeya
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Numerical Investigation of Large-Diameter Monopiles in Sands: Critical Review and Evaluation of Both API and Newly Proposed p-y Curves
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Despite the increase in offshore wind turbine (OWT) capacities, the preferred foundations for these marine structures are large-diameter monopiles due to their ease of installation in shallow to medium water depth. The ...
Cost Predictions of Facilities
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Facility managers in all organizations experience many different problems. One of the most common significant problems is the prediction of future operating and maintenance costs. Although extremely accurate cost predictions ...
Numerical Analysis of the Cutting Forces in Timber
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents an incremental approach based on the theories of continuum damage and anisotropic plasticity to model the forces that develop during timber cutting. The model used is based on the thermodynamics of ...
Analytical Quantification of Ultimate Resistance for Sand Flowing Horizontally around Monopile: New p-y Curve Formulation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Driven by the need to enhance the performances of the Winkler model when dealing with large-diameter monopiles, the primary objective of this paper is to propose a new p-y formulation that has the ability to realistically ...
Analytical Formulation of the Ultimate Resistance for Piles in Undrained Clays Based on Threefold Failure Mechanisms
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Large-diameter piles (commonly called monopiles) are extensively used to support offshore wind turbines (OWTs) for withstanding large lateral and overturning moments. Results from monotonic tests suggested that the design ...
Seismic Performance of Self-Centering Structural Walls Incorporating Energy Dissipators
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents elements of seismic design for jointed precast cantilever wall units designed to rock about their foundation. Gravity loading and prestressed unbonded tendons provide the restoring force in these walls. ...
Durability of Glass Polymer Composites Subject to Stress Corrosion
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Although it is well known that moisture ingress in glass fiber reinforced polymers (GFRP) enhances the phenomenon of stress corrosion cracking in the fibers, and that this reaction is likely to proceed more rapidly at the ...
