FRCM systems for strengthening masonry structures
2017
Composite materials have been widely used for strengthening weak masonry buildings. Particularly, wrapping with fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) composites has become a common method for strengthening masonry members primarily subjected to compressive static loads or seismic actions. More recently, in an effort to alleviate some drawbacks associated with the use of FRP materials, fibrereinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) composites have received a lot of interests for external strengthening of historical masonry structures. It is used as an alternative to FRP in situations where these composites have shown some disadvantages or their use is banned. This paper presents a literature review on …

We study two-dimensional Banach spaces with polynomial numerical indices equal to zero.
Derivation of a Homogenized Two-Temperature Model from the Heat Equation
2014
This work studies the heat equation in a two-phase material with spherical inclusions. Under some appropriate scaling on the size, volume fraction and heat capacity of the inclusions, we derive a coupled system of partial differential equations governing the evolution of the temperature of each phase at a macroscopic level of description. The coupling terms describing the exchange of heat between the phases are obtained by using homogenization techniques originating from [D. Cioranescu, F. Murat: Coll\`ege de France Seminar vol. 2. (Paris 1979-1980) Res. Notes in Math. vol. 60, pp. 98-138. Pitman, Boston, London, 1982.]
Hybrid Equilibrium Finite Element Formulation for Cohesive Crack Propagation
2019
Equilibrium elements have been developed in hybrid formulation with independent equilibrated stress fields on each element. Traction equilibrium condition, at sides between adjacent elements and at sides of free boundary, is enforced by use of independent displacement laws at each side, assumed as Lagrangian parameters. The displacement degrees of freedom belongs to the element side, where an extrinsic interface can be embedded. The embedded interface is defined by the same stress fields of the hybrid equilibrium element and it does not require any additional degrees of freedom. The extrinsic interface is developed in the consistent thermodynamic framework of damage mechanics with internal …
On two classes of finite supersoluble groups
2017
ABSTRACTLet ℨ be a complete set of Sylow subgroups of a finite group G, that is, a set composed of a Sylow p-subgroup of G for each p dividing the order of G. A subgroup H of G is called ℨ-S-semipermutable if H permutes with every Sylow p-subgroup of G in ℨ for all p∉π(H); H is said to be ℨ-S-seminormal if it is normalized by every Sylow p-subgroup of G in ℨ for all p∉π(H). The main aim of this paper is to characterize the ℨ-MS-groups, or groups G in which the maximal subgroups of every Sylow subgroup in ℨ are ℨ-S-semipermutable in G and the ℨ-MSN-groups, or groups in which the maximal subgroups of every Sylow subgroup in ℨ are ℨ-S-seminormal in G.
Defect zero characters predicted by local structure
2017
Let $G$ be a finite group and let $p$ be a prime. Assume that there exists a prime $q$ dividing $|G|$ which does not divide the order of any $p$-local subgroup of $G$. If $G$ is $p$-solvable or $q$ divides $p-1$, then $G$ has a $p$-block of defect zero. The case $q=2$ is a well-known result by Brauer and Fowler.
Constant sign and nodal solutions for nonlinear robin equations with locally defined source term
2020
We consider a parametric Robin problem driven by a nonlinear, nonhomogeneous differential operator which includes as special cases the p-Laplacian and the (p,q)-Laplacian. The source term is parametric and only locally defined (that is, in a neighborhood of zero). Using suitable cut-off techniques together with variational tools and comparison principles, we show that for all big values of the parameter, the problem has at least three nontrivial smooth solutions, all with sign information (positive, negative and nodal).
Removing the saturation assumption in Bank-Weiser error estimator analysis in dimension three
2020
International audience; We provide a new argument proving the reliability of the Bank-Weiser estimator for Lagrange piecewise linear finite elements in both dimension two and three. The extension to dimension three constitutes the main novelty of our study. In addition, we present a numerical comparison of the Bank-Weiser and residual estimators for a three-dimensional test case.
