Terrestrial Laser Scanning and Non Parametric Methods in Masonry Arches Inspection
Historical bridges are not only elements of our cultural heritage but also civil engineering structures. They are usually researched with destructive technologies, but their geometry is being more and more used in order to perform structural analysis, and this way it would be possible to make a diagnosis of their state of conservation. Laser scanners collect a great amount of data that allows b...
متن کاملMoments and forces delivered by transpalatal arches for symmetrical first molar rotation.
The moments and forces delivered by round transpalatal arches of steel and of beta-titanium (TMA) for symmetrical derotation of molars were studied in laboratory experiments. Three sizes of arches were tested in two series. In the first series, the degree of activation was checked for symmetry in a computer-based strain-gauge measuring system. In the second series, the activation was carried ou...
متن کاملMasonry Type Retrofit Applications
A mechanical device especially designed for the application of low-level posttensioning forces to glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars was developed at the University of Missouri-Rolla. Some of the advantageous features of this device are that it is simple to assemble and the low-level post-tensioning forces can be applied manually and safely without the need for hydraulic jacks or heavy ...
متن کاملHomogenization of Interlocking Masonry Walls
In a previous publication the authors proposed a continuous model for describing the mechanical behaviour of ‘Running Bond’ masonry walls. Here a different masonry structure is considered. This structure is ‘bi-atomic’ in the sense that its pattern consists in two kind of blocks with different. The homogenization by differential expansions technique is used for obtaining an equivalent Cosserat ...
متن کاملThe Arches Cluster Mass Function
We have analyzed H and Ks–band images of the Arches cluster obtained using the NIRC2 instrument on Keck with the laser guide star adaptive optics (LGS AO) system. With the help of the LGS AO system, we were able to obtain the deepest ever photometry for this cluster and its neighborhood, and derive the background-subtracted present-day mass function (PDMF) down to 1.3M⊙ for the 5–9 annulus of t...
