Finite element models were developed to assess the influence of several parameters on the load capacity, deflection, and initial stiffness of multi-story, partially grouted masonry walls with openings. The base model was validated with experimental data from three walls. The analyses indicated that the load capacity of masonry walls was considerably sensitive to the ungrouted and grouted masonry strengths and mortar shear strength; moderately sensitive to the vertical reinforcement ratio and aspect ratio; slightly sensitive to the axial stress; and almost insensitive to the opening size, reinforcement spacing, and horizontal reinforcement ratio. The deflection of the walls had well-defined correlations with the masonry strength, vertical reinforcement, axial stress and aspect ratio. The initial stiffness was especially sensitive to the axial stress and the aspect ratio, but weakly correlated with the opening size, and the spacing and size of the reinforcement.

In the presented paper, the impacts of steel fiber use and tensile reinforcement ratio on shear behavior of Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC) beams were investigated from the point of different tensile reinforcement ratios. In the scope of the experimental program, a total of eight beams consisting of four reinforcement ratios representing low to high ratios ranged from 0.8% to 2.2% were casted without shear reinforcement and subjected to the four-point loading test. While half of the test beams included 30 mm end-hooked steel fibers (SF-UHPC) with 2.0 vol%, the remaining beams were produced without the fiber to show possible effectiveness of the fiber use. The shear performances were discussed in terms of the load—deflection response, cracking pattern and failure mode, first cracking load and ultimate shear strength. In this sense, all the non-fiber beams were failed by shear with a dramatic load drop, regardless of the tensile reinforcement amount, before the yielding of reinforcement and they produced no deflection capability. The test results showed that while the inclusion of steel fibers to the UHPC mixture with low reinforcement ratios changed the failure mode from the shear to flexure, it significantly enhanced the ultimate shear strength in the case of higher reinforcement ratio through the SF-UHPC’ superior mechanical properties and fibers’ crack-bridging ability.

<p>Solid circular columns are often used as structural supports in bridges, buildings and foundations due to their simplicity of construction and because their strength is similar in any direction. This deem them very suitable to resist wind and seismic loads. Hollow core circular concrete members are much less structurally used than solid circular cross sections. However, these can be found in concrete chimneys, concrete pipes and elevated water tanks, as well as in large bridge columns and offshore platforms. Codes do not usually propose specific formulations for evaluating the shear strength of such structural types or if they do, they do so in a very simplified manner.</p><p>Hence, an analytical model for evaluating the contribution of the transverse reinforcement in concrete members of solid and hollow circular cross section is presented in this paper. After a thorough bibliographic research on the previous studies on the matter, the shortage of work accomplished on the topic has been assessed and the unsolved problems identified. A formula for evaluating the shear transferred by spiral reinforcement in solid members is presented. A formula for the calculation of hollow core circular columns with both vertical and spiral reinforcement is also deduced. Assumptions made for the calculation of this formulation have been deduced theoretically and then checked empirically. Hence, shear tests on circular hollow core specimens will be also presented.</p>

The neutron capture processes in the AlN nanoparticles were investigated by computer modeling. Neutrons absorption were separately investigated for aluminum (Al) and nitrogen (N) atoms in the AlN nanoparticles. The modeling was performed separately for each stable Al and N isotopes, because the effective absorption cross-section of different types of isotopes of Al and N atoms is different. Moreover, effective cross-section spectra of neutron capture for aluminum and nitrogen atoms were comparatively investigated.

Here a physical model for terminating giant planet formation is outlined and compared to other methods of late-stage giant planet formation. As has been pointed out before, gas accreting into a gap and onto the planet will encounter the planetary dynamo-generated magnetic field. The planetary magnetic field produces an effective cross section through which gas is accreted. Gas outside this cross section is recycled into the protoplanetary disk, hence only a fraction of mass that is accreted into the gap remains bound to the planet. This cross section inversely scales with the planetary mass, which naturally leads to stalled planetary growth late in the formation process. We show that this method naturally leads to Jupiter-mass planets and does not invoke any artificial truncation of gas accretion, as has been done in some previous population synthesis models. The mass accretion rate depends on the radius of the growing planet after the gap has opened, and we show that so-called hot-start planets tend to become more massive than cold-start planets. When this result is combined with population synthesis models, it might show observable signatures of cold-start versus hot-start planets in the exoplanet population.

The Gibson method utilizes the effect of water hammer phenomenon (hydraulic transients) in a pipeline for flow rate determination. The method consists in measuring a static pressure difference, which occurs between two cross-sections of the pipeline as a result of a temporal change of momentum from t0 to t1. This condition is induced when the water flow in the pipeline is stopped suddenly using a cut-off device. The flow rate is determined by integrating, within a proper time interval, the measured pressure difference change caused by the water hammer (inertia effect). However, several observations demonstrate that changes of pipeline geometry like diameter change, bifurcations, or direction shift by elbows may produce an effect on the computation of the flow rate. The paper focuses on this effect. Computational simulations have shown that the boundary layer separates when the flow faces sudden changes like these mentioned to above. The separation may reduce the effective cross section area of flow modifying a geometry factor involved into the computation of the flow rate. The remainder is directed to quantify the magnitude of such a factor under the influence of pipeline geometry changes. Results of numerical computations are discussed on the basis of how cross section reductions impact on the geometry factor magnitude and consequently on the mass flow rate.
