Flexural Behavior of Steel Fibrous Reinforced Concrete Deep Beams

2012

Experimental research was carried out regarding the flexural behavior of deep beams cast with plain and fibrous concrete with hooked steel fibers, and subjected to monotonic vertical loads. Four deep fiber-reinforced concrete beams were cast. Two of them were made of plain concrete with main and web steel reinforcements (RC), and two were made of hooked steel fiber-reinforced concrete (SFRC) with main steel reinforcements. The experimental results show the brittle behavior of reinforced deep RC members characterized by crushing of concrete struts and fracture of web steel bars. SFRC deep beams exhibit higher strength and, above all, ductility with respect to RC members due to the bridging a…

Numerical modelling of bond behaviour in Fabric Reinforced Cementitious Matrix strengthened reinforced concrete members

2022

Fabric Reinforced Cementitious Matrix (FRCM) composites are widely seen as offering advantages in structural retrofitting of existing buildings. In spite of their reputed effectiveness, FRCM systems typically suffers from several drawbacks related to the mechanical characterization due to complex stress transfer mechanicisms that can develop at fiber-matrix and FRCM-substrate interface. Numerous experimental studies focus on this topic, but few numerical studies are addressed to better understand the variables involved in the problem. This paper aims to propose a simple 1D numerical model to predict the shear bond behaviour of FRCM applied on concrete substrate, providing support to deduce …

Procedure for Safety Assessment and BIM Modelling of an Historical Complex Structure through a Macroelement Approach: The Building “Molino-Pastificio…

2022

The structural assessment of existing historical structures is a complex task due to the inner main difficulty in making up reliable models for structural analysis, able to include mechanical and geometrical nonlinearities, existing damage, complex configurations and arrangements of materials. This task becomes more difficult in mixed RC-masonry structures, which structural modelling can be particularly tough due to the different connections and interactions between structural members and materials. This paper presents the case study of a multi-storey mixed Reinforced Concrete (RC)- masonry historical structure, namely the former mill “Molino-Pastificio Soresi” building, located in Partinic…

Highmann's Theorem on Discrete Sets

2006

In this paper we investigate properties of different classes of discrete sets with respect to the partial-order of subpicture. In particular we take in consideration the classes of convex polyominoes and L-convex polyominoes. In the first part of the paper we study closure properties of these classes with respect the order and we give a new characterization of L-convex polyominoes. In the second part we pose the question to extend Higman’s theoremto discrete sets. We give a negative answer in the general case and we prove that the set of L-convex polyominoes is well-partially-ordered by using a representation of L-convex polyominoes in terms of words of a regular language.

Openness and Discreteness

2013

The aim of this chapter is to study conditions under which a mapping of finite distortion is open (maps open sets to open sets) and discrete (preimage of each point is a discrete set).

The Radon-Wigner Transform and Its Application to First-order Optical Systems

2009

The Radon-Wigner transform is presented as a tool for the description of 1st-order optical systems. The input/output relationships for this phase-space representation are obtained and their application in analysis and design tasks is pointed out.

A posteriori error estimates for time-dependent reaction-diffusion problems based on the Payne-Weinberger inequality

2015

We consider evolutionary reaction-diffusion problem with mixed Dirichlet--Robin boundary conditions. For this class of problems, we derive two-sided estimates of the distance between any function in the admissible energy space and exact solution of the problem. The estimates (majorants and minorants) are explicitly computable and do not contain unknown functions or constants. Moreover, it is proved that the estimates are equivalent to the energy norm of the deviation from the exact solution.
