Nonlaminated FRP Strap Elements for Reinforced Concrete, Timber, and Masonry Applications
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Advances in material technology allow for the exploration of new structural forms and systems. In recent years, fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) have emerged as candidate materials for civil engineering applications, and ...
Characterization of Laser Cleaning of Copper for Soldering Processes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The laser cleaning of copper surfaces with a Nd:YAG Q-switched laser pulse for the improvement of solder quality on printed circuit boards (PCBs) has been monitored and characterized by sensing ...
Free Vibration Analysis of Arbitrarily Shaped Plates With Smoothly Varying Free Edges Using NDIF Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The so-called non-dimensional influence function method that was developed by the authors is extended to free vibration analysis of arbitrarily shaped plates with the free boundary condition. A ...
External Prestressed Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Straps for Shear Enhancement of Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The use of fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) for the strengthening and repair of existing concrete structures is a field with tremendous potential. The materials are very durable and, hence, ideally suited for use as external ...
Penetration Behavior and Sample Quality of Hydraulically Activated Fixed-Piston Samplers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Identification of a Thin Plate With Piezoelectric Actuators and Sensors
