Structural reliability analysis is considered, by FORM and SORM applied to a certain idealized soil -platform structure interaction problem due to cyclic water wave and wind loads. Wave and wind loads are random variables, whereas dead load is deterministic. Load parameters are typical for storm conditions in the Baltic Sea. The soil-structure interaction is idealized as a set of linear translational...
A fire test was conducted, which examined the process of a Fiat Uno passenger car fire. During the experiment the temperature was recorded at selected areas by thermocouples. Continuous observation was conducted in visible light and IR. Photographs illustrating the combustion process at the relevant moments were attached. Events relating to the car burning were presented in the chronological order...
One of the condition of structure strength (due to building fire safety) is to assure its bearing capacity during the fire. The article informs on the stress-strain state parameters and the reinforced concrete wall destruction mechanism under the fire influence with the standard temperature conditions using finite elements method. On the basis of analysis conclusions have been formulated.
The aim of the study was to obtain knowledge on the effects of deformation of the standard knife blade, adopted from the standard NIJ Standard -0115.00 on stab resistance of a personal soft body armor. To achieve the goal, 7 numerical models representing the test knife with changing geometry were generated. The models were defined with fixed boundary and initial conditions. Owing to the research,...
