One of the key applications of Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) in structural engineering is to provide confinement to the plastic hinge region of Reinforced Concrete (RC) columns. Due to the high complexity of the problem, current research on the behavior of RC plastic hinge is largely experimental; different and even contradicting models and conclusions have been reported. This gives rise to the need...
As an external prestressed concrete box girder continuous rigid-frame bridge with the longest span in China, the Xiantan Bridge was reported in this paper for its special characteristics. The key points of the end cross beam for anchorage zone and deviation block for the de viator were introduced in detail for its design. The finite element models for them with 3D FEM were created to get the stress...
In recent years, the Disc-Type Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (DTPMSG) has gained renewed attention for wind power generating system, due to its compact structure, good ventilation, high moment of inertia and efficiency. This paper proposed a novel disk-type generator with sandwiched structure, in which the coreless disk-type stator is arranged between its two disk-type rotors. A simplified...
A large-scale low-temperature aboveground LNG storage tank design is described in detail, especially the process of prestressing tendons configuration using finite element method (FEM). Considering the LNG storage tanks working conditions and corresponding loading conditions, the strength and stress statuses are simulated using 3D FEM according to the actual construction stages. The corresponding...
For a curved rigid bridge found vertical cracks in web during the construction process, the finite element software (MIDAS) was used to analysis for the creaking reason for the cast-in-place concrete box bridge. From the analysis of the objectives, the credibility of the results, foundation for modeling, the factors choice for the model and relevant experience are introduced. Including low strength...
