Ski jumping takeoff in a wind tunnel with skis.

2011

The effect of skis on the force–time characteristics of the simulated ski jumping takeoff was examined in a wind tunnel. Takeoff forces were recorded with a force plate installed under the tunnel floor. Signals from the front and rear parts of the force plate were collected separately to examine the anteroposterior balance of the jumpers during the takeoff. Two ski jumpers performed simulated takeoffs, first without skis in nonwind conditions and in various wind conditions. Thereafter, the same experiments were repeated with skis. The jumpers were able to perform very natural takeoff actions (similar to the actual takeoff) with skis in wind tunnel. According to the subjective feeling of the…

“Indagine sperimentale per la caratterizzazione meccanica di elementi strutturali misti in legno-acciaio e legno-acciaio-calcestruzzo"

2009

The paper reports the results of the research activity aimed to define the physical-mechanics characteristics of structural elements made of wood-steel, and/or wood-steel-concrete, jointed by steel con¬nectors. The elements used for the tests are: glulam beams with two dif¬ferent dimensions (110x240x4000 mms and 110x140x4000 mms); steel flats 100x6x4000 mms with holes  20 mms arranged like "quinconce"; steel connectors like: flat with 6 mms thickness;  18; angular; polymeric synthetic binder with epoxy base bicomponent (Xepox 40.3/5). Shear tests have been made to define the capacity for deformation and the re¬sistance of the different steel connectors. Moreover, bending tests have been m…

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…

Indagine sperimentale sul comportamento di pareti sismiche in acciaio sottoposte a taglio

2005

The paper concerns the experimental results performed on steel (S 235) zinc plated panels having 1500 x 1150 x 1.5 mm dimensions, linked to hinged steel frame. In order to the slenderness of plates, considerable displacements out-of-plane are evident at loads significantly lower of ultimate load. Considering the steel constitutive curves obtained from tensile tests, the comparison of experimental and numerical (ADINA) results is proposed. The results show the excellent seismic behaviour of the system having stable hysteresis loops.

Interventi migliorativi in acciaio a tutela delle opere di interesse storico-monumentale dal rischio sismico

2007

The research concerns the analysis of structural behaviour of some historic-monumental buildings in which steel structures are used for the seismic protection. A dynamic model has been made to individuate the macro-element with an high seismic risk, that is, for church studied, the drum-dome system. Then a scaled model has been tested to determinate the evolution of the lesions, the retrofitting works, that are constituted by steel frames, bare or braced, inserted inside door/window holes of the drum-dome system, and the variation structural ductility. An elastic linear analysis, with a FEM software, has been developed for other type of buildings, in which the vertical structures are made w…

Progetto di Strutture in acciaio per le nuove costruzioni e per gli interventi di consolidamento. IV Edizione

2005

The book is a state of the art summary of recent development in the behavior, analysis and design of steel and composite structures. The book provides advanced students, researchers al professionals in civil and structural engineering with the basic principles upon which the modern codes are based. In the first part, the materials, the actions and the sectional behavior are analyzed on the base of the limit state theory. Then the connections (bolted and welded)and the stability effects are examined. In this way is possible speak about seismic performance, retrofitting an refurbishment of existing buildings, referring to the italian rules, to the european codes EC3, EC4 and to the AISC rules.

Häilyvää strategistumista : kulttuuriperinnön eri merkitykset Suomen kymmenen suurimman kaupungin kulttuuristrategioissa

2022

Tässä artikkelissa tarkastellaan puhetta kulttuuriperinnöstä kymmenen suurimman suomalaisen kaupungin tuoreissa kulttuuristrategioissa. Kulttuuriperinnöstä puhutaan melko vähän ja enimmäkseen epäsuorasti siihen liitettävien teemojen ja ilmaisujen kautta. Se on tullut osaksi paikallista julkisen kulttuurihallinnon strategista puhetta, mutta sen merkitykset ovat toistaiseksi moninaisia ja strategistuminen häilyvää. Kulttuuriperintö kytketään kaupunkilaisten aktivoimiseen, yhteisöllisyyteen sekä kaupungin imagoon ja talouteen. Muutamat strategiat tunnistavat sen itseisarvonkin. peerReviewed

Experimental and Theoretical Investigations of Structural Isomers of Dichalcogenoimidodiphosphinate Dimers: Dichalcogenides or Spirocyclic Contact Io…

2007

A synthetic protocol for the tert-butyl-substituted dichalcogenoimidodiphosphinates [Na(tmeda){(EPtBu2)2N}] (3 a, E=S; 3 b, E=Se; 3 c, E=Te) has been developed. The one-electron oxidation of the sodium complexes [Na(tmeda){(EPR2)2N}] with iodine produces a series of neutral dimers (EPR2NPR2E[BOND])2 (4 b, E=Se, R=iPr; 4 c, E=Te, R=iPr; 5 a, E=S, R=tBu; 5 b, E=Se, R=tBu; 5 c, E=Te, R=tBu). Attempts to prepare 4 a (E=S, R=iPr) in a similar manner produced a mixture including HN(SPiPr2). Compounds 4 b, 4 c and 5 a–c were characterised by multinuclear NMR spectra and by X-ray crystallography, which revealed two alternative structures for these dimeric molecules. The derivatives 4 b, 4 c, 5 a an…
