Flooding Risk

Designing for exceedance events consists in designing a continuous route for overland flow to deal with flows exceeding the sewer system’s capacity and to mitigate flooding risk. A review is carried out here on flood safety/hazard criteria, which generally establish thresholds for the water depth and flood velocity, or a relationship between them. The effects of the cross-section shape, roughness and slope of streets in meeting the criteria are evaluated based on equations, graphical results and one case study. An expedited method for the verification of safety criteria based solely on flow is presented, saving efforts in detailing models and increasing confidence in the results from simplified models. The method is valid for 0.1 m2/s 0.5 m2/s. The results showed that a street with a 1.8% slope, 75 m1/3s−1 and a rectangular cross-section complies with the threshold 0.3 m2/s for twice the flow of a street with the same width but with a conventional cross-section shape. The flow will be four times greater for a 15% street slope. The results also highlighted that the flood flows can vary significantly along the streets depending on the sewers’ roughness and the flow transfers between the major and minor systems, such that the effort detailing a street’s cross-section must be balanced with all of the other sources of uncertainty.

The exact theory of linearly elastic beams developed by Ladeve`ze and Ladeve`ze and Simmonds is illustrated using the equations of plane stress for a fully anisotropic elastic body of rectangular shape. Explicit formulas are given for the cross-sectional material operators that appear in the special Saint-Venant solutions of Ladeve`ze and Simmonds and in the overall beamlike stress-strain relations between forces and a moment (the generalized stress) and derivatives of certain one-dimensional displacements and a rotation (the generalized displacement). A new definition is proposed for built-in boundary conditions in which the generalized displacement vanishes rather than pointwise displacements or geometric averages.

Damage Healing

Continuum damage-healing mechanics (CDHM) is used for phenomenological modeling of self-healing materials. Self-healing materials have a structural capability to recover a part of the damage for increasing materials life. In this paper, a semi-analytic modeling for self-healing concrete beam is performed. Along this purpose, an elastic damage-healing model through spectral decomposition technique is utilized to investigate an anisotropic behavior of concrete in tension and compression. We drive an analytical closed-form solution of the self-healing concrete beam. The verification of the solution is shown by solving an example for a simply supported beam having uniformly distributed the load. Finally, a result of a self-healing concrete beam is compared to elastic one to demonstrate the capability of the proposed analytical method in simulating concrete beam behavior. The results show that for the specific geometry, the self-healing concrete beam tolerates 21% more weight, and the deflection of the entire beam up to failure load is about 27% larger than elastic solution under ultimate elastic load for both I-beam and rectangular cross-section. Comparison of Continuum Damage Mechanics (CDM) solution with CDHM solution of beam shows that critical effective damage is decreased by 32.4% for a rectangular cross-section and by 24.2% for I-shape beam made of self-healing concrete.
