Mechanical properties of copper octet-truss nanolattices
We investigate the mechanical properties of copper (Cu) octet-truss nanolattices through a combination of classical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and theoretical analysis. The MD simulations show that Cu nanolattices with high relative density are stronger than bulk Cu, while also achieving higher strength at a lower relative density as compared to Cu meso-lattices. We demonstrate that mo...
متن کاملShear-friction truss model for reinforced concrete beams
This paper presents a new model, called the "shear-friction truss model," for slender reinforced concrete beams to derive a clear and simple design equation for their ultimate shear strength. In this model, a portion of the shear strength is provided by shear reinforcement as in the traditional truss model, and the remainder by the shear-friction mechanism. Friction resistance is derived consid...
متن کاملPrediction of Lightweight Aggregate Concrete Compressive Strength
Nowadays, the better performance of lightweight structures during earthquake has resulted in using lightweight concrete more than ever. However, determining the compressive strength of concrete used in these structures during their service through a none-destructive test is a popular and useful method. One of the main methods of non-destructive testing in the assessment of compressive strength...
متن کاملSWITCHING TEAMS ALGORITHM FOR SIZING OPTIMIZATION OF TRUSS STRUCTURES
Meta-heuristics have received increasing attention in recent years. The present article introduces a novel method in such a class that distinguishes a number of artificial search agents called players within two teams. At each iteration, the active player concerns some other players in both teams to construct its special movements and to get more score. At the end of some iterations (like quart...
متن کاملShape morphing hinged truss structures
Truss structures are widely used for the support of structural loads in applications where minimum mass solutions are required. Their nodes are normally constructed to resist rotation to maximize their stiffness under load. A multi-link node concept has recently been proposed that permits independent rotation of tetrahedral trusses linked by such a joint. High authority shape morphing truss str...
