TENSILE AND CREEP BEHAVIOR OF GEOSYNTHETICS USING CONFINED-ACCELERATED TESTS
(IOS Press, 2013-01-01)
A major aspect in geosynthetics creep analysis is the load level applied to the specimen, usually referred as a percentage of the geosynthetic ultimate tensile strength (UTS). Since both tensile and creep standard tests ...
Vibration and tipping of agricultural machinery: A reality to be adjusted
(Crc Press-taylor & Francis Group, 2014-01-01)
The present study aimed to develop a methodology for the collection, transfer, storage and processing of vibration levels emitted in jobs occupied in agricultural machinery. The reason of this work is the study the vibration ...
Modeling of multiple cracks in reinforced concrete members using solid finite elements with high aspect ratio
(Crc Press-taylor & Francis Group, 2014-01-01)
This paper presents a new technique to model interfaces by means of degenerated solid finite elements, i.e., elements with a very high aspect ratio, with the smallest dimension corresponding to the thickness of the interfaces. ...
