A prognostics approach based on the evolution of damage precursors using dynamic Bayesian networks
(SAGE, 2016)
During the lifetime of a component, microstructural changes emerge at its material level and evolve through time.
Classical empirical degradation models (e.g. Paris Law in fatigue crack growth) are usually established ...
Assessment of the seismic capacity of tall wall buildings using nonlinear finite element modeling.
Two existing RC shear wall buildings of 17 and 26 stories were analyzed using fully nonlinear finite element models, i.e., models that include nonlinear material behavior and geometric nonlinearities. The buildings are ...
Nonlinear formulation based on FEM, Mazars damage criterion and Fick's law applied to failure assessment of reinforced concrete structures subjected to chloride ingress and reinforcements corrosion
(Elsevier B.V., 2014-11-01)
Structural durability is an important design criterion, which must be assessed for every type of structure. In this regard, especial attention must be addressed to the durability of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. ...
Ablation and optical third-order nonlinearities in Ag nanoparticles
(Dove Press Ltd, 2019)
Simplified analysis of the influence of strain localization and asymmetric damage distribution on static damaged polyester rope behavior
(2017)
In this paper, two factors that govern the response of damaged ropes are numerically examined independently: strain localization and asymmetric damage distribution. These two mechanisms are studied by using two nonlinear ...
Facade seismic failure simulation of an old Cathedral in Colima, Mexico by 3D Limit Analysis and nonlinear Finite Element Method
(2015)
Earthquake protection of historical buildings is fundamental for the economy and development of a country and is a topic of intensive research among the scientific community. Two different material models and approaches ...
An Anisotropic Model of Damage and Unilateral Effect for Brittle Materials
(World Acad Sci, Eng & Tech-waset, 2014)
Optimal control of linear and nonlinear asymmetric structures by means of passive energy dampers
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2013)
Asymmetric structures experience uneven deformation demand among different resisting planes and stories when subjected to earthquake excitation. Damage is focused in some elements jeopardizing structural integrity. These ...
