Revisiting classical concepts of Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics - Part III: The stress field in a double-edge notched finite strip by means of the “stress-neutralization” technique

Christos F. Markides, Stavros K Kourkoulis

This is the third part of a short series of paper, revisiting some classical concepts of Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics. Based on the solution for the single edge notched strip, discussed in Part-II, the present study deals with the…

Revisiting classical concepts of Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics - Part II: Stretching finite strips weakened by single edge parabolically-shaped notches

Christos F. Markides, Stavros K Kourkoulis

This is the second part of a short three-paper series, aiming to revisit some classical concepts of Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics. Being the intermediate step of the analysis between infinite domains (discussed in Part-I) and finite…

Dynamic debonding in layered structures: a coupled ALE-cohesive approach

Marco Francesco Funari, Fabrizio Greco, Paolo Lonetti

A computational formulation able to simulate crack initiation and growth in layered structural systems is proposed. In order to identify the position of the onset interfacial defects and their dynamic debonding mechanisms, a moving mesh…

Effectiveness of Partial Wrapping of Stainless-Steel Wire Mesh on Compression Behavior of Concrete Cylinders

Sunil Raiyani, Paresh Patel, S Suriya Prakash

Partial confinement can provide sufficient reinforcement to enhance the compressive strength and ductility of concrete with lesser confining material. This paper presents the results of an axial compression test conducted on eighteen plain…

Improved flexural behaviour of reinforced concrete beam strengthened using stainless steel wire mesh

Shail Shah, Parth Raithatha, Sunil Raiyani

The paper presents an experimental investigation of the flexural behaviour of reinforced concrete (RC) beam elements strengthened externally with stainless steel wire mesh (SSWM). SSWM has the potential to be an alternative composite…
