A Simple Statistical Energy Analysis Technique on Modeling Continuous Coupling Interfaces
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In statistical energy analysis (SEA) modeling, it is desirable that the SEA coupling loss factors (CLFs) between two continuously connected subsystems can be estimated in a convenient way. A simple SEA modeling technique ...
Local Damage Evolution of Double Cantilever Beam Specimens During Crack Initiation Process: A Natural Boundary Condition Based Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Cohesive zone models are being increasingly used to simulate fracture and debonding processes in metallic, polymeric, and ceramic materials and their composites. The crack initiation process as ...
Nonlinear Deterioration Model for Bond Interfacial Fracture Energy of FRP-Concrete Joints in Moist Environments
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study proposed a bond mechanism based deterioration model of bond interfacial fracture energy for fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP)-concrete joints in moist environments. The bond interface region relative humidity (IRRH) ...
Modeling of Moisture Diffusion in FRP Strengthened Concrete Specimens
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Modeling the movement and distribution of moisture in the fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites strengthened concrete structure is important because the interfacial adhesion between FRP and concrete is susceptible to ...
Unified Modeling of Interface between Structured Clay or Crushable Sand and Structure
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to develop a unified elastoplastic model for describing both monotonic and cyclic behaviors of natural structured clay–structure and crushable sand–structure interfaces based on the bounding ...
Investigation of the Flame Stability and Laminar Burning Speed of Propylene/Air/Carbon Dioxide Mixtures Under Conditions of Elevated Temperatures and Pressures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Propylene is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C3H6. It is considered a natural refrigerant and has gained attention in recent years due to its low environmental impact. However, it is highly flammable. To ...
Flexural Impact Performance of Stainless Steel–Lightweight Concrete Composites for Marine Structures
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The present study combines the advantages of both stainless steel and lightweight high-ductility cement composite (LHDCC) to develop a durable stainless steel–LHDCC composite for marine protective structures. Firstly, the ...
Anatomy of Critical State Constitutive Models: Simulating Undrained Failure of <i>K</i><sub>0</sub>-Consolidated Soils
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Different features, such as rotational hardening and nonassociated flow, have been added to the classic modified cam-clay (MCC) model. However, there is little knowledge about their role and importance in simulating in ...
An Elastoplastic Model for Predicting Kinematics and Trajectories of Suction-Embedded Plate Anchors under Eccentric Loading in Clay
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Previous plasticity models for predicting anchor kinematics under eccentric loading in clay are mostly rigid plastic. They may produce inaccurate outcomes in some conditions. This paper presents an elastoplastic model to ...
Water Permeability Monitoring Based on the Electrical Signal Changes of Piezoresistive Cementitious Composites
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Water significantly influences the electrical resistivity and piezoresistive performance of piezoresistive cementitious composites (PCCs). In existing studies, it has been difficult to reflect the actual water permeability ...
