This paper presents a study aimed to estimate the flexural performance of profiled steel sheet-bamboo plywood composite slabs as a first step to evaluate its potential application as structural components. Nine specimens were tested to investigate the stability of steel-bamboo composite structure. According to different connection methods, three types of composite slabs were discussed, including pure bonding slabs (PBSs), composite bonding slabs (CBSs), and reinforced composite bonding slabs (RCBS). The result showed that specimens employed multiple composite methods (RCBS) exhibited excellent flexural bearing capacity and stiffness compared with PBS. The increase of bamboo plywood thickness could improve bearing capacity and flexural stiffness of composite slabs, while the reduction of screw spacing could enhance the bearing capacity and ductility of composite slabs. The RCBS, which can provide higher bearing capacity and stiffness and possess excellent deformation capability, are well worth of research and practical application.

Rc Slabs

Four pairs of prefabricated reinforced concrete slabs were designed, cast, cured, assembled and test to investigate the flexural performance of prefabricated underground thin-wall box RC structure. One traditional integrated slab specimen with same size, material and reinforcement was also cast and test for comparison purpose. Four rebar constructional forms were conceived to compare the ability of transferring tension force between two slabs. Symmetric two-points monotonic static load test were performed to attain their flexural performance. The test results indicates: the prefabricated RC slab can provide better deformability and ductility, but the flexural bearing capacity is lower, comparing with cast-in-situ integrated RC slab; steel rebar form at seam have some effect on the flexural bearing capacity of prefabricated RC slab.

Flexural Bearing Capacity

Based on experimental research and calculation theory of flexural bearing capacity, a method for calculating the ultimate load bearing of normal section member strengthened with prestressed CFL is proposed. Static load experimental results of two beams show that when prestress level is 20%, the cracking load and yield load of RC beams strengthened with prestressed CFL are 37.5% and 39.3% respectively. It is larger than that of RC beam strengthened with nonprestressed CFL.

The load-bearing capacity and fracture pattern of direct inlay-retained FRC FDPs with two different cross-sectional designs of the ponticwere tested. The aim of the study was to evaluate a new fibre disposition. Two types of composites, Filtek Bulk Fill Posterior Restorative and Filtek Z250 (3M/ESPE, St. Paul, MN, USA), and one braided polyethylene fibre, Construct (Kerr, USA) were used. The results of the study suggested that the new tested disposition of the fibres prevented in some extend the delamination of the composite on buccal and facial sides of the pontic and increased the load-bearing capacity of the bridges.

Abstract In this study, the flexural bearing capacity and failure mechanism of carbon fiber-reinforced aluminum laminate (CARALL) beams with a double-channel cross-section and a 3/2 laminated configuration were experimentally and numerically studied. Two types of specimens using different carbon fiber layup configurations ([0°/90°/0°]3 and [45°/0°/−45°]3) were fabricated using the pressure molding thermal curing forming process. The double-channel CARALL beams were subjected to static three-point bending tests to determine their failure behaviors in terms of ultimate bearing capacity and failure modes. Owing to the shortcomings of the two-dimensional Hashin failure criterion, the user-defined FORTRAN subroutine VUMAT suitable for the ABAQUS/Explicit solver and an analysis algorithm were established to obtain a progressive damage prediction of the CFRP layer using the three-dimensional Hashin failure criterion. Various failure behaviors and mechanisms of the CARALL beams were numerically analyzed. The results indicated that the numerical simulation was consistent with the experimental results for the ultimate bearing capacity and final failure modes, and the failure process of the double-channel CARALL beams could be revealed. The ultimate failure modes of both types of double-channel CARALL beams were local buckling deformation at the intersection of the upper flange and web near the concentrated loading position, which was mainly caused by the delamination failure among different unidirectional plates, tension and compression failure of the matrix, and shear failure of the fiber layers. The ability of each fiber layer to resist damage decreased in the order of 90° fiber layer > 0° fiber layer > 45° fiber layer. Thus, it is suggested that 90°, 0°, and 45° fiber layers should be stacked for double-channel CARALL beams.

The paper describes the architecture of a Spiking Neural Network (SNN) for time waveform analyses using edge computing. The network model was based on the principles of preprocessing signals in the diencephalon and using tonic spiking and inhibition-induced spiking models typical for the thalamus area. The research focused on a significant reduction of the complexity of the SNN algorithm by eliminating most synaptic connections and ensuring zero dispersion of weight values concerning connections between neuron layers. The paper describes a network mapping and learning algorithm, in which the number of variables in the learning process is linearly dependent on the size of the patterns. The works included testing the stability of the accuracy parameter for various network sizes. The described approach used the ability of spiking neurons to process currents of less than 100 pA, typical of amperometric techniques. An example of a practical application is an analysis of vesicle fusion signals using an amperometric system based on Carbon NanoTube (CNT) sensors. The paper concludes with a discussion of the costs of implementing the network as a semiconductor structure.

Flexural Bearing Capacity

PurposeThe flexural reinforcement of bridges in-service has been an important research field for a long time. Anchoring steel plate at the bottom of beam is a simple and effective method to improve its bearing capacity. The purpose of this paper is to explore the influence of anchoring steel plates of different thicknesses on the bearing capacity of hollow slab beam and to judge its working status.Design/methodology/approachFirst, static load experiments are carried out on two in-service RC hollow slab beams; meanwhile, nonlinear finite element models are built to study the bearing capacity of them. The nonlinear material and shear slip effect of studs are considered in the models. Second, the finite element models are verified, and the numerical simulation results are in good agreement with the experimental results. Finally, the finite element models are adopted to carry out the research on the influence of different steel plate thicknesses on the flexural bearing capacity and ductility.FindingsWhen steel plates of different thicknesses are adopted to reinforce RC hollow slab beams, the bearing capacity increases with the increase of the steel plate thickness in a certain range. But when the steel plate thickness reaches a certain level, bearing capacity is no longer influenced. The displacement ductility coefficient decreases with the increase of steel plate thickness.Originality/valueBased on experimental study, this paper makes an extrapolation analysis of the bearing capacity of hollow slab beams reinforced with steel plates of different thicknesses through finite element simulation and discusses the influence on ductility. This method not only ensures the accuracy of bearing capacity evaluation but also does not need many samples, which is economical to a certain extent. The research results provide a basis for the reinforcement design of similar bridges.

Rock Roadway

Compared with I-shaped and U-shaped supports in soft rock roadway, concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) support, as a new supporting form, has stronger bearing capacity with reasonable price. So it is becoming more and more popular in roadway supporting of coal mine in China. In this article, the surrounding rock in soft rock roadway was classified into three different types: hard rock in deep coal mine, soft surrounding rock, extremely soft surrounding rock. And, according to the characteristics of deformation failure of the CFST support and the surrounding rock in the industrial tests, three different strength assessments, including assessment of axial compressive strength, assessment of lateral flexural performance, assessment of hardening rate of core concrete, were proposed through mechanical analysis and laboratory tests for the three different types of the surrounding rock, respectively. Moreover, aimed to insufficient flexural strength of the support or low hardening rate of the core concrete in some of the roadway supporting, strengthening lateral flexural performance or making early strength concrete was necessary for the above unfavorable situations. The laboratory test results showed that the ultimate bearing capacity for the CFST support with φ194*8mm of steel tube reinforced by φ38mm round steel was 31% greater than that of the unreinforced one, 177% greater than that of the U-shaped one with equivalent weight per unit length.
