Shear Reinforcement for Flat Plate-Column Connections Using Lattice Bars

Failure Analysis of Column-Slab Connections with Stud Shear Reinforcement

Evaluation of the Efficiency of Shear Studs for Punching Shear Resistance of Slab-Column Connections

Design of Unstiffened Extended Single-Plate Shear Connections

Extended single-plate shear connections (Figure 1) offer many advantages that simplify the construction process. Because the connection to the supported member is moved clear of the support, coping of the supported member is not required and the only fabrication process required for the supported member is drilling or punching. Also, because bolted connections are only used in the connection to...

Investigation of Shear Stud Performance in Flat Plate Using Finite Element Analysis

Three types of shear stud arrangement, respectively featuring an orthogonal, a radial and a critical perimeter pattern, were evaluated numerically. A numerical investigation was conducted using the finite element software ABAQUS to evaluate their ability to resist punching shear in a flat plate. The finite element analysis here is an application of the nonlinear analysis of reinforced concrete ...

Stability Analysis for Wake Flow Behind a Flat Plate

Neutral stability limits for wake flow behind a flat plate is studied using spectral method. First, Orr-Sommerfeld equation was changed to matrix form, covering the whole domain of solution. Next, each term of matrix was expanded using Chebyshev expansion series, a series very much equivalent to the Fourier cosine series. A group of functions and conditions are applied to start and end points i...
