The shear friction parameters were straightforwardly formulated from the extension version of the integrated mechanical models derived in our previous study based on the upper bound theorem of concrete plasticity. Eighteen non-reinforced push-off specimens (nine monolithic interfaces and nine interfaces with smooth construction joints) were tested under direct shear and the additional compressive stresses normally applied to the interfaces. The test parameters considered in different interface conditions were the compressive strength of concrete and the magnitude of compressive stresses. The experimental and analytical results showed that the addition of air foam slightly decreases the angle of friction of monolithic interfaces but insignificantly affects that of smooth construction joints. Thus, the effect of air foam added up to 20% by volume on the cohesion and friction angle of concrete was marginal. Therefore, the proposed shear friction parameters are promising to reasonably assess the shear friction strength of LWC-BF interfaces.","PeriodicalId":43844,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Structural Integrity and Maintenance","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2021-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/24705314.2020.1823557","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48296654","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to the insufficient amount of high-quality fresh limestone aggregates, construction and demolition waste are used as an alternative base course material for highway construction. The stabilization of C&D recycled aggregate waste with ordinary portland cement (OPC) has been repeatedly used by the researchers to improve the performance of the base course in highway construction. The studies related to the geosynthetic-reinforced C&D waste are limited. In this study, the efficacy of geosynthetics reinforced bases was evaluated within the base course with three different base thickness (120, 150 and 200 mm). Two different infill materials, namely, C&D waste and limestone aggregates were used and plate load tests were conducted to simulate traffic loading over geosynthetic reinforced and unreinforced unpaved test sections. This study aims to present the results in terms of load versus deformation and load versus vertical stress distribution. It was observed that the C&D waste improvement factor is more than virgin aggregates (limestone aggregates). Due to the inclusion of geocell and geotextile, the average bearing capacity improvement factor enhances by 62% and the vertical stresses decrease significantly.","PeriodicalId":43844,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Structural Integrity and Maintenance","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2020-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/24705314.2020.1823555","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41697679","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thus, it is needed to evaluate the resistance of calcium leaching for underground concrete mixed with mineral admixtures. In this study to evaluate the effects of long-term calcium leaching on the RC members mixed with mineral admixture are investigated. From the test results, when the RC member is attacked by calcium leaching, the yield load decreased, and the deflection at this time increased. And, the moment at the time of the inflection point of curvature decreased as well. Also, while a continuous decrease in compressive strength occurred with leaching period, the yield point and deflection value of an RC member with relatively low water binder ratio and low replacement ratio of mineral admixture as binder did not show significant changes. Consequently, when the concrete is applied to the underground structure which is exposed to a calcium leaching environment, it is not desirable to use high water-binder ratio or a large amount of mineral admixture as binder.","PeriodicalId":43844,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Structural Integrity and Maintenance","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2020-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/24705314.2020.1824668","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41756296","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The optimization problem is solved in the Genetic Algorithm (GA) framework. Considering small nonlinearities, the nonlinear TMD design using GA is validated through standard equivalent linearization method. The efficacy of the TMD designs is presented through a numerical simulation study on four different single-degree-of-freedom structure-TMD systems subjected to recorded earthquake ground motions. Results indicate that the optimally designed nonlinear TMD with Bingham-type damping can effectively reduce the size of the TMD damping element at the cost of a very slight degradation in control performance as compared to the linear TMD. The improved performance of the nonlinear TMD with Bingham-type damping over the linear TMD that develops post-design nonlinearities is also shown. Further, a robust design procedure of the nonlinear TMD using GA is presented that can cater to perturbations in the natural frequency of the primary structure. Thus, the optimal design procedure using GA for the nonlinear TMD offers several advantages as compared to the statistical linearization approach.","PeriodicalId":43844,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Structural Integrity and Maintenance","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2020-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/24705314.2020.1783121","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42608952","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this approach, the Weibull distribution is found suitable and employed for determining deterioration in terms of hazard function ha(t) of the bridges due to aging. Conversely, the northeast (NE) region of India is highly tectonically active and prone to earthquakes of higher magnitude (Mw>8). Considering the high seismicity in the study region, respective active faults and their corresponding maximum PGA values are taken into account to evaluate the earthquake hazard of the region in a site specific manner. By applying this proposed approach, significant site specific in-depth ideas and facts about their service life span could be evaluated considering the condition of existing bridges for satisfactory performance that would be helpful in taking rational decisions for the bridge management system (BMS) in terms of safety, rehabilitation, repair and inspection strategies of the bridges available in the study region for sustainable growth.","PeriodicalId":43844,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Structural Integrity and Maintenance","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2020-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/24705314.2020.1783123","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43404848","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results for cube testing revealed that the use of SF and MK produces considerably good strength concrete. Based on the experimental observations, an approach to predict the compressive strength using regression modeling was suggested. The result of which rendered a reasonable agreement with the available test data. Moreover, two Artificial Neural Network (ANN) models have also been proposed to predict the compressive strength of concrete using the data obtained from the experimental exercise. Randomized stratification method was used to divide the data samples into training and testing subsets in line with machine learning best practices. The results of the ANN models were found to be in good agreement with experimental values.

A total of 24 sections were analyzed and the mean values were plotted. Although the PS Ball incorporated mortar exhibited 10% lower strength at 28-day age, it showed stronger and less porous aggregate- matrix interface between (from particle surface up to 35 μm width) as compared to that of normal mortar containing sand, which is justifiable by the chemical composition of PS Ball attributed to the potential chemical binding. Further, the porosity decreased as the distance from aggregate surface increased.
