Probabilistic and semi-probabilistic analysis of slender columns frequently use...
Strauss, Alfred; Hauser, Michael; Täubling, Benjamin; Ivanković, Ana Mandić; Skokandić, Dominik; Matos, José C.; Galvão, Neryvaldo; Benko, VladimirThe stability of slender columns is a topic that has been dealt with in research and practice for many years. The importance of this topic also increases with the possibility of using non-linear modeling approaches to determine the stability and with the increasingly complex safety formats. In order to show the complexity and the variability associated with the non-linear models, two previous contributions disc...
Round-Robin modelling of the load-bearing capacity of slender columns by using ...
Strauss, Alfred; Ivankovic, Ana Mandic; Benko, Vladimir; Matos, José C.; Marchand, Pierre; Wan-Wendner, Roman; Galvao, Neryvaldo; Orcesi, AndreNon-linear finite element analyses have intrinsic model and user factors that influence the results of the analyses. However, non-linear finite element analysis can provide a tool to assess safety using realistic descriptions of material behaviour with actual material properties. A realistic estimation of the existing safety and capacity of slender column elements can be achieved by means of "true" material pro...
Shear performance mechanism description using digital image correlation
Strauss, Alfred; Castillo, Pablo; Bergmeister, Konrad; Krug, Bernhard; Wan-Wendner, Roman; Marcon, Marco; Matos, José C.; Casas, Joan RamonIn engineering, quality control in systems development ensures that products and services meet expectations. There is an increasing need to develop strategies to ensure asset quality and reduce the risk of unexpected costs. Ensuring the desired service quality with minimum interruptions requires maintenance actions when the risk of service impairment, interruption or losses in life-cycle costs reach predefined ...
