Book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences

Download or read book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences written by Wade H. Shafer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and dis· seminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) *at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the ac· tivity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all concerned if the printing and distribution of the volume were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 20 (thesis year 1975) a total of 10,374 theses titles from 28 Canadian and 239 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for theses titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. The organization of Volume 20 is identical to that of past years. It consists of theses titles arranged by discipline and by university within each discipline.

Book Reinforced Concrete Structures under Cyclic Loading

Download or read book Reinforced Concrete Structures under Cyclic Loading written by Farhad Aslani and published by Trans Tech Publications Ltd. This book was released on 2015-03-14 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experimental programs in laboratories give real results to identify nonlinear behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) structures but they are limited to knowledge of particular cases under restricted structural dimensions, sizes, shapes, loading and boundary conditions but the computational simulation approach has no limit to its application. Constitutive models are developed to simulate the dynamic nonlinear response of concrete and steel reinforcement subjected to cyclic loading varying randomly in magnitude. The behavior of structural concrete under monotonic loading is affected by important material aspects including cracking, crushing, tension stiffening, compression softening and bond slip. Reversed cyclic loading introduces further complexities such as stiffness degradation in concrete and the Bauschinger effect in reinforcing steel. In this research the validity and reliability of some proposed constitutive models for concrete considering general loading i.e. cyclic, monotonic, partial, common point and transition loading are evaluated. Amongst many existing constitutive models, because of their simplicity and common usage in the finite element analysis of RC structures, only some common proposed models based on nonlinear elasticity-based approach are investigated. These models are verified against experimental data available in the literature and the results are discussed. In this study, also, a hysteretic stress–strain model is developed for unconfined concrete with the intention of providing efficient modeling for the structural behavior of concrete in seismic regions. The proposed model is based on the findings of previous experimental and analytical studies. The model for concrete subjected to monotonic and cyclic loading, comprises four components in compression and tension; an envelope curve (for monotonic and cyclic loading), an unloading curve, a reloading curve, and transition curve. Also presented are formulations for partial unloading and partial reloading curves. The proposed Constitutive model reliability is investigated by RC members non-linear finite element analysis (FEM) using by finite element software ABAQUS. Comparisons with test results showed that the proposed model provides a good fit to a wide range of experimentally established hysteresis loops.

Book Direct Shear Transfer of Lightweight Aggregate Concretes with Non monolithic Interface Conditions

Download or read book Direct Shear Transfer of Lightweight Aggregate Concretes with Non monolithic Interface Conditions written by Dane Michael Shaw and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This thesis describes the results of a study initiated to examine the influence of concrete unit weight on the direct shear transfer across an interface of concretes cast at different times. This type of interface is common with structural precast concrete connections, such as corbels, for which shear friction design provisions are commonly used. Increasing use of lightweight aggregate concretes prompted this investigation to determine the appropriateness of current shear friction design provisions with respect to all-lightweight and sand-lightweight concrete. The experimental investigation included thirty-six push-off test specimens, each of which was constructed with a cold-joint at the interface shear plane. Test variables included unit weight of concrete (108, 120, and 145 pcf), target compressive strength of concrete (5000 and 8000 psi), and interface condition (smooth or roughened). A constant amount of reinforcing steel was provided across the shear plane. Results suggest that concrete unit weight did not play a significant role in the interface shear strength for the cold-joint specimens in this study. Results were also compared with shear friction design provisions in both the ACI 318 code and the PCI Design Handbook. Shear strengths computed using the coefficient of friction [mu] approach were conservative for the sand-lightweight and all-lightweight cold-joint specimens in this study. The value of the effective coefficient of friction [mu subscript e] computed using the PCI Design Handbook approach was found to be conservative for both roughened and smooth non-monolithic interfaces for each concrete type. Finally, the use of the lightweight concrete modification factor [lambda] in the calculation for the effective coefficient of friction [mu subscript e] was found to be conservative for the sand-lightweight and all-lightweight cold-joint specimens in this study. This study is sponsored by the Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute Daniel P. Jenny Fellowship Program and the National University Transportation Center at the Missouri University of Science and Technology in Rolla, Missouri"--Abstract, page iii.
