Abstract: In this paper the failure of a three layer system comprising a concrete column, an intermediate epoxy layer, and fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) confinement is investigated. We perform a series of numerical experiments to ...

Abstract: Extensive investigations were carried out to study the emitted radiation during the E.D.M. process. It was found that radiation from the region of the gap between the electrode (tool) and the ...

Abstract: Dynamics of a large moored floating body in ocean waves involves frequency dependent added mass and radiation damping as well as the linear and nonlinear mooring line characteristics. Usually, ...

Abstract: Full-scale single-room masonry buildings of different typology, i.e., unreinforced (URM), reinforced (RM) and Confined Masonry (CM) were tested under cyclic loading in quasi-static manner to study the seismic performance. ...

Abstract: The effect of laminate thickness on crack pattern, mode of failure, and strength of shear deficient reinforced concrete (RC) T-beams wrapped with glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) laminates was studied experimentally ...

Abstract: The present paper concerns the hydrodynamic coupling of fluid with laminated composite cylinders under small displacements. A numerical model using finite-element technique is presented to study the dynamics of inviscid, ...

Abstract: Role of mini tension leg platforms (TLP) in oil exploration and production in marginal deepwater fields is becoming increasingly important. Mini TLP combines the simplicity of a spar and favorable ...
