Three-point bending test of sandwich beams supporting the GFRP footbridge design process - validation
PublicationSome selected aspects concerning material and construction design issues for pedestrian footbridge made of GFRP composite materials are elaborated in this paper. The analysis is focused on validation tests, which are particularly important because of the advanced technology and materials that are used for this innovative bridge. The considered footbridge is a sandwich-type shell structure comprising of PET foam core and outer skins...

Load introduction to composite columns revisited—Significance of force allocation and shear connection stiffness
PublicationThe AISC 360-16 Specification recommends that the design shear force between parts of a composite column in the load introduction area shall be calculated based on the force allocation at ultimate limit state. Applicability of this straightforward method to the load levels that usually arise in slender composite columns is questionable, as this capacity-based force allocation is only true when the axial force is equal to the plastic...

Detection of debonding in reinforced concrete beams using ultrasonic transmission tomography and hybrid ray tracing technique
PublicationThis paper concerns inspection of reinforced concrete elements, with particular emphasis on assessing the quality of the adhesive connection between steel and concrete. A novel theoretical model was developed to determine the paths of transmitted, refracted and reflected elastic waves as well as a creeping wave propagated along the inclusion surface. Imaging the internal structure of tested beams was based on wave propagation measurements...

Mechanical compatibility of implants used in hernia repair with abdominal wall
PublicationThe paper deals with a membrane model of a synthetic surgical mesh for treatment of abdominal hernia. The authors analyse the compatibility of two implant types with the human wall: Dualmesh Gore and Proceed. The finite element method is applied to simulate tjhe behavior of the proposed model. Due fact that recurrences are usually caused by connection failure, this study is focused on reaction forces in supports representing the...

Influence of steel brackets supporting crane runway girders structure on the stress distribution in the brackets
PublicationThe paper presents a numerical analysis of steel brackets supporting a double-span crane runway girders. The purpose of the study was to assess the new structural solution based on the stress distribution in the brackets. In order to simplify the connection, the bottom flange of the crane runway girder is based directly on the upper flange of the bracket. As a result, the support reaction is no longer applied in the plane of the...

Wave propagation signals in concrete beams under 3-point bending
Open Research DataThe DataSet contains the results of the mechanical behaviour of a concrete beams with dimensions 40 x 40 x 160 cm3under the 3-point bending. The beams were made of concrete with the following ingredients: CEM I 42.5R (450 kg/m3), water (177 kg/m3), sand 0-2 (675 kg/m3) and gravel 2-8 (675 kg/m3). The bending test was performed using a Zwick/Roell Z10...

Mechanical behaviour of the implant used in human hernia repair under physiological loads
PublicationIn laparoscopic operations of abdominal hernias some recurrences still take place, even when applying a surgical mesh. This is usually caused by a failure of the connection between the tissue and the implant. The study deals with the influence of an implant’s orientation on forces in joints, which connect the mesh to human tissues. In the paper, the implant is modelled as a membrane structure within framework of the Finite Element...

On local buckling of cold-formed channel members
PublicationThe paper deals with local buckling of the compressed flanges of cold-formed thin-walled channel beams subjected to pure bending or axially compressed columns. Arbitrarily shaped flanges of open cross-sections and the web-flange interactions are taken into account. Buckling deformation of a beam flange is described by displacement related to torsion of the flange about the line of its connection with the web. Total potential energy...

Ultrasonic wave propagation and digital image correlation measurements of steel bars under 3-point bending
Open Research DataThe DataSet contains the results of the mechanical behaviour of a bar under a 3-point bending test. The bar was made of steel and had a cross-section of 5.96 × 5.96 mm2 and a length of 200 mm. The three-point bending test was performed using a Zwick/Roell Z10 universal testing machine (UTM), with a distance between supports of 12 cm. The parameters...

Moment resistance of I-section end-plate roof girder splices; a case study
PublicationThis article deals with the problem of determining the resistance of end-plate connections. A nonlinear FEM model of the joint was constructed in order to predict its carrying capacity. A standard code procedure was done as well. The analyses have been done to assess atypical end-plate joints designed and constructed as a part of roof structures.
