This paper presents the results of two wall-slab connection tests to study effect composite reinforcement materials. The are carried out at Scale 1 on X-shaped connections with a wall and continuous floor either side node. geometry steel rebars tested specimens chosen in accordance European constructive practice [1]. is combination CFRP, GFRP, carbon mesh. To mechanical behavior node, displacem...

One of the important issues is assessment strength elements hydraulic structures, spillway reservoirs, and complexes, determination connection mode basins, reduction kinetic energy in reinforced fields downstream pool. In this regard, it especially to determine hydrodynamic characteristics flow water moving apron risberme area, which provides stability pool - areas that indicate distribution di...

the creep behavior of basalt fiber reinforced epoxy (bfre) and glass fiber reinforced epoxy (gfre) composites was studied through tensile testing at high temperature. to study the effect of reinforcing epoxy, the micro glass powder (mgp) was added at various volume percentage into the epoxy resin in bfre composites. the initial strain for all the specimens were evaluated and compared with each ...

─This paper presents the retrofitting of beam-column joint using CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer) and steel plate. This specimen was tested until failure up to 1.0% drift. This joint suffered severe damages and diagonal cracks at upper crack at upper column before retrofitted. CFRP were wrapped at corbel, bottom and top of the column. Steel plates with bonding were attached to the two bea...

At the moment the huge majority of the structural parts is based on pre-preg designs and standard prepreg manufacturing technology. They are processed conventionally out of Hand Lay-up and cured in autoclaves. The cost drivers are the hand-work, the use of autoclave and the quality control. The future success of new helicopter programs is strongly dependant on the development of cost efficient ...

Abstract A geometric decomposition previously adopted in areas of nonlinear continuum mechanics and soliton theory is applied to a two-dimensional time-independent magnetohydrodynamic system obtain reduction canonical third order equation subject constraint. Novel classes exact solutions the are thereby constructed. Connection made with kinematic conditions which attend certain steady motions f...
