The aim of the present paper is to evaluate the ultimate limit state performance of an AFRAMAX-class hypothetical double hull oil tanker structure designed by IACS CSR (Common Structural Rules) method, compared with the same-class/type tanker structure designed by IACS pre-CSR method. The ultimate strengths of stiffened plate structures in deck and bottom parts under combined in-plane and out-of-plane actions, and hull girder against vertical bending moment, are computed for the two designs, and the resulting computations are compared. ALPS/ULSAP program is used for the ultimate limit state assessment of stiffened plate structures, while ALPS/HULL program is employed for the progressive hull collapse analysis. ANSYS nonlinear FEA method, which uses more refined technology, is also used for the same purpose. The insights and developments obtained from the present study are addressed.

The objective of the present paper is to evaluate the ultimate limit state (ULS) performance of 170k bulk carrier structures designed by the IACS common structural rules (CSR) method, compared with the similar-class/type bulk carrier structure designed by the IACS pre-CSR method. The ultimate strengths of stiffened plate structures in deck, side, and bottom parts, and hull girders against vertical bending moment, are computed for the two designs, and the resulting computations are compared. ALPS/ULSAP program is used for the ultimate limit state assessment of stiffened plate structures, and ALPS/HULL program is employed for the progressive hull collapse analysis. The insights and developments obtained from the present study are documented.

In advanced marine industry, the reduction in weight of hull structures for a very large object ship plays an important role as the economic efficiency is the most significant aspect. In this paper, we investigate the ultimate strength of structural ship stiffened-plates designed by International Association of Classification Societies (IACS) Common Structural Rules (CSR) methods of collapse state, by applying for ANSYS nonlinear finite element analysis (FEA). Specifically, the ultimate limit assessment methods for the outer bottom of ship structures, which have drawn a significant attention from industrial marine and offshore structures, are proposed to reduce the weight of ship structures. To solve this, we study the structures of a hypothetical Very Large Ore Carrier (VLOC) designed by pre-CSR and CSR methods. In particular, the stiffened-plates under the biaxial compression and lateral pressure loads with simply supported or/and clamped boundary condition(s), the results ultimate limit state assessment performance of Nonlinear FEA methods are shown and compared to various states.

Постановка задачи. Исследуется метод усиления железобетонных колонн устройством стальной обоймы с обетонированием, который позволяет восстанавливать эксплуатационные показатели колонн, имеющих значительные дефекты и повреждения. Предпосылкой настоящих исследований явилось предположение о том, что усиление стальной обоймой с обетонированием является эффективным способом повышения несущей способности железобетонных колонн, причем вариант приложения нагрузки - только на бетонное ядро или ко всему сечению - существенно на эффективность усиления не влияет. В связи с этим целью исследования является определение необходимости устройства стального оголовка и включения в работу ветвей стальной обоймы при условии обетонирования стержня колонны по всей высоте. Результаты и выводы. Рациональным признан способ передачи нагрузки только на бетонное ядро усиленных колонн, поскольку устройство оголовка стальной обоймы требует применения сложных конструктивно-технологических решений, но при этом дополнительно увеличивает несущую способность незначительно (согласно проведенным исследованиям менее чем на 10 %). Ввиду отсутствия необходимости устройства конструкций стального оголовка снижаются трудоемкость и сроки производства работ по усилению колонн. Statement of the problem. The method of strengthening reinforced concrete columns with a steel clipping and the concrete surfacing is investigated. This method allows one to repair the columns with significant defects and damage. The prerequisite for this study was the assumption of strengthening with a steel clipping and the concrete surfacing is an effective way to increase the ultimate limit state of reinforced concrete columns, furthermore, the option of applying the load (only to the concrete core or to the entire section) does not significantly affect the strengthening effectiveness. In this regard, the purpose of the investigation was to identify the need to include the steel jacketing in the work, on the condition the column is coated with concrete along with the entire height. Results and conclusions. The load transfer method only to the concrete core of the strengthened columns is recognized as rational since the device of the steel clipping head requires the use of complex structural and technological solutions, but at the same time additionally increases the ultimate limit state insignificantly (according to the studies by less than 10 %). Due to the absence of the need to establish structures of the steel jacketing head, the labor intensiveness and terms of work production on strengthening the columns are reduced.

<p>With the building industry being one of the main sources of carbon dioxide emission worldwide and concrete being the main construction material, new strategies have to be developed to reduce the carbon footprint thereof. The use of high-performance materials in structural concrete, as for example textile-reinforced concrete (TRC), seems to allow for a reduction of the resource consumption and the carbon emissions. The present paper addresses potential applications of TRC examining the global warming potential (GWP) of a rail platform barrier. The resource consumption is depicted in a parametrical study in terms of the necessary component height and reinforcement area considering both the serviceability limit state (SLS) as well as the ultimate limit state (ULS). The results clearly indicate an achievable reduction of the GWP during construction when using textile reinforcement made of high-performance fibres. Furthermore, an analysis of the European market was conducted to prove the availability of this new reinforcement type. </p>
