Rock-like materials often exhibit irregular failure deformation under long-term service conditions, and the deformation and failure of asphalt and concrete materials is a serious problem that leads to subgrade failure. In this study, two different viscous/brittle rock-like materials were prepared by the in situ loading and optical speckle synchronous monitoring test method, and the evolution characteristics of the deformation field were studied during compression. The formation process of the compression deformation localization of rock-like materials and their relationship with stability were analyzed. A quantitative description of the compression deformation stage and localization characteristics of the viscous/brittle rock-like materials is presented. The results can be summarized as follows. At the initial stage of compression, the deformation localization zone of viscous/brittle rock-like materials begins to expand from the middle area to the surrounding area. Preliminary results of the deformation localization of the linear elastic deformation stage were obtained. The failure cloud image is completely formed at the peak, which is consistent with the failure physical map. The deformation process of compression can be quantitatively described using the deformation localization characteristics of rock-like materials.

The objective of this study is to simulate the behavior of reinforced concrete beams in fire situation. In order to achieve this objective, advanced numerical formulations were developed, implemented and evaluated. When exposed to high temperatures, the properties of the material deteriorate, resulting in the loss of strength and stiffness. To achieve the goal, two new modules within the Computational System for Advanced Structural Analysis were created: Fire Analysis and Fire Structural Analysis. The first one aims to determine the temperature field in the cross section of structural elements through thermal analysis by using the Finite Element Method (FEM). The second was designed to perform the second-order inelastic analysis of structures under fire using FEM formulations based on the Refined Plastic Hinge Method coupled with the Strain Compatibility Method. The results obtained of the nonlinear analyses of two reinforced concrete beams under high temperature were compared with the numerical and experimental solutions available in literature and were highly satisfactory. These results also showed that the proposed numerical approach can be used to study the progressive collapse of other reinforced concrete structures in fire situation and extended to the numerical analysis of composite structures under fire condition.

Fire Design

The most expeditious method for the design of concrete beams under fire situation is the tabular method, presented by the Brazilian standard ABNT NBR 15200:2012. Albeit simple, this method constrains the engineer's work, as it prevents him to seek alternative solutions to the few tabulated values. Yet, the Brazilian standard allows employing more advanced methods. Hence, the purpose of this work was to perform a thermal and structural analysis of beams with several widths, heights, covers and diameters/layouts of steel reinforcement (upper and lower). From those results, graphs were constructed, associating the ratio between the applied bending moment in fire over the resistance bending moment at ambient temperature, for the fire resisting time of each situation. These graphs also allow taking into account the redistribution of moments from positive to negative, which will lead to savings in the solution found.

In order to analyze the behavior of building structures in a real fire, a numerical method is proposed, which employs fire zone model to simulate the fire growing and the temperature distributions in a firing room. Two computer programs are developed to predict the thermomechanical response of the structures, one for thermal response analysis, and another for structural analysis. The structural analysis program contains a fiber beam element and a layered shell element. These elements, validated against data from experimental tests, can be used to predict the response of beam/column and slabs in fire conditions. Based on these programs, a system for analyzing the behavior of structures under fire is developed on MSC/PATRAN platform. The behavior of building structures under fire can be simulated with this system and the results can be used as the reference for the fire safety analysis and assessment of general building structures under fire.

Spirillum serpens possesses a surface layer protein which exhibits a regular hexagonal packing of the morphological subunits. A morphological model of the structure of the protein has been proposed at a resolution of about 25 Å, in which the morphological unit might be described as having the appearance of a flared-out, hollow cylinder with six ÅspokesÅ at the flared end. In order to understand the detailed association of the macromolecules, it is necessary to do a high resolution structural analysis. Large, single layered arrays of the surface layer protein have been obtained for this purpose by means of extensive heating in high CaCl2, a procedure derived from that of Buckmire and Murray. Low dose, low temperature electron microscopy has been applied to the large arrays.As a first step, the samples were negatively stained with neutralized phosphotungstic acid, and the specimens were imaged at 40,000 magnification by use of a high resolution cold stage on a JE0L 100B. Low dose images were recorded with exposures of 7-9 electrons/Å2. The micrographs obtained (Fig. 1) were examined by use of optical diffraction (Fig. 2) to tell what areas were especially well ordered.
