Damage Evolution in Complex-Phase and Dual-Phase Steels during Edge Stretching
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2017-03-27)The role of microstructural damage in controlling the edge stretchability of Complex-Phase (CP) and Dual-Phase (DP) steels was evaluated using hole tension experiments. The experiments considered a tensile specimen with a ... -
Influence of drilling and abrasive water jet induced damage on the performance of carbon fabric/epoxy plates with holes
(Elsevier, 2017-03-01)The influence of conventional drilling (CD) and abrasive water jet (AWJ) cutting on the fatigue performance of carbon fabric/epoxy plates was investigated. Observations of machined hole regions revealed more severe damage ... -
Monotonic and Fatigue Performance of RC Beams Strengthened with Externally Post-Tensioned CFRP Tendons
(University of Waterloo, 2007-05-04)External post-tensioning is an attractive technique for strengthening reinforced concrete structures because of its ability to actively control stresses and deflections, speed of installation, minimum interruption for the ... -
Storey-based stability of unbraced steel frames under piece-linear temperature distributions
(Elsevier, 2019-05-21)There are many cases where the elastic modulus of a structural member will vary longitudinally, such as when a steel column is heated by fire. In such a case, the fire can compromise the integrity of the structural frame. ... -
Three-Dimensional CT Imaging and Microstructural Mechanical Modeling of Corrosion and Freeze-Thaw Damage of Concrete
(University of Waterloo, 2022-10-17)Corrosion and freeze-thaw can cause detrimental damage to concrete structures. Understanding concrete damage mechanisms at the micro-level can play an essential role in implementing effective preventive measures and efficient ... -
A three-dimensional damage percolation model
(University of Waterloo, 2007-01-19)A combined experimental and analytical approach is used to study damage initiation and evolution in three-dimensional second phase particle fields. A three-dimensional formulation of a damage percolation model is developed ...
