High Strength Reinforcing Bars : Concrete Shear Friction Interface Behavior

Creator:: Nielson, Drew R.
Abstract:: Use of high-strength steel (HSS) reinforcing bars could provide constructability and economic benefits for the construction of structures, reducing the initial and ultimately the life-cycle cost of bridge and building structural elements. This thesis summarizes work performed in a research project on the use of HSS reinforcing bars for concrete...

Shear strengthening reinforced concrete bridge girders using near-surface mounted titanium alloy bars

Creator:: Knudtsen, Jonathan
Abstract:: Aging and deficient infrastructure has become a major problem throughout the world. This is particularly evident in the case of reinforced concrete (RC) bridges. The cost of replacing these bridges is often prohibitive, thus engineers must find ways to strengthen them. Many older RC bridges predate the modern understanding of...

Evaluation of Abaqus for simulating quasi-static Mode III shear of edge notched carbon fiber reinforced polymer panels

Creator:: Hyder, Imran
Abstract:: The ability to engineer stiffness and strength in any desired direction make composites an ideal material candidate for various applications when compared to their traditional isotropic counterparts. In spite of this, the ability to model the material response in composites has yet to be fully explored. Composite research largely focuses...

Dynamic measurement of Timoshenko beam shear coefficient

Creator:: Nelson, Daniel Loren
Abstract:: The Timoshenko beam theory, as an engineering alternative to the elementary and exact theories, introduces a factor, k', called the shear coefficient which has been given various interpretations and values. It is the objective of this study to experimentally evaluate k' for a brass bar of rectangular cross-section. Analytical results...

The dynamic shear moduli of blubber for selected large whale species

Creator:: Summers, Michael P.
Abstract:: Whale blubber is the insular tissue layer located between the dermis and the superficial fascia layer which sheathes the whale's musculature. It is made up of a lipid matrix ramified with strong, structural collagen and elastic fiber bundles, but little is known of its mechanical properties. Knowing these properties adds...

An experimental approach to analyze large notched composite panels loaded in out-of-plane shear

Creator:: Froemming, Tyler M.
Abstract:: Identifying material characteristics of composites is important in designing any structural system. The aerospace industry relies on these material properties not only to design a functional aircraft, but also a safe and reliable one. Since carbon fiber composites are relatively new materials, little is known about its characteristics under certain...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Designing a strand orientation pattern for improved shear properties of oriented strand board

Creator:: Alldritt, Kenton
Abstract:: As oriented strand board (OSB) increases in use as an engineered wood product, improving the in-plane shear properties will allow more efficient use of the material as well as open up other opportunities for OSB to be used in engineered wood products with high shear stresses. Based on classical laminated...

Analysis of conventionally reinforced concrete bridge girders for low-cycle fatique in shear

Creator:: Forrest, Richard W. B.
Abstract:: Increasing load magnitudes and loss of reinforcing steel cross-sectional area from corrosion creates the potential for low-cycle fatigue (LCF) in conventionally reinforced concrete (CRC) bridge girders lightly reinforced for shear. LCF of reinforcing steel may be of particular concern. Little data are available for LCF of reinforcing steel without stress...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Reliability based bridge assessment using modified compression field theory and Oregon specific truck loading

Creator:: Daniels, Theresa Kathryn
Abstract:: Assessment of an existing bridge is needed when the structure exhibits signs of distress. Assessment practices require refinement in the calculation of loading and resistance while maintaining an acceptable level of risk, to minimize costs associated with repair, replacement and weight restrictions. Previous risk-based assessments evaluated the strength cases for...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Design and fatigue behavior of near-surface mounted CFRP bars for shear strengthening of RC bridge girders

Creator:: Johnson, Brandon Ang
Abstract:: Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) materials are emerging as an effective means of strengthening and rehabilitating bridges. Near surface mounting (NSM) is a newer technique for application of CFRP for retrofitting of bridge members that provides advantages over conventional strengthening techniques. The technique is still new and uncertainties remain regarding...
