The idea behind the present method is similar to the cell-based smoothed 4-noded quadrilateral finite elements (CS-FEM-Q4). In CSFEM, the smoothing domains are created based on elements, and each element can be further subdivided into 1 or several smoothing cells. It is observed that: 1) The CS-FEM using a single smoothing cell can produce higher stress accuracy, but insufficient rank and poor displacement accuracy; 2) The CS-FEM using several smoothing cells has proper rank, good displacement accuracy, but lower stress accuracy, especially for nearly incompressible and bending dominant problems. We therefore propose 1) an extension of strain smoothing to 8-noded hexahedral elements and 2) an alternative CS-FEM form, which associates the single smoothing cell issue with multi-smoothing cell one via a stabilization technique. Several numerical examples are provided to show the reliability and accuracy of the present formulation.}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{TalebiSilaniBordasetal., author = {Talebi, Hossein and Silani, Mohammad and Bordas, St{\´e}phane Pierre Alain and Kerfriden, Pierre and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {A computational library for multiscale modeling of material failure}, series = {Computational Mechanics}, journal = {Computational Mechanics}, abstract = {A computational library for multiscale modeling of material failure}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{ZhuangHuangLiangetal., author = {Zhuang, Xiaoying and Huang, Runqiu and Liang, Chao and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {A coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical model of jointed hard rock for compressed air energy storage}, series = {Mathematical Problems in Engineering}, journal = {Mathematical Problems in Engineering}, doi = {10.1155/2014/179169}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20170428-31726}, abstract = {Renewable energy resources such as wind and solar are intermittent, which causes instability when being connected to utility grid of electricity. Compressed air energy storage (CAES) provides an economic and technical viable solution to this problem by utilizing subsurface rock cavern to store the electricity generated by renewable energy in the form of compressed air. Though CAES has been used for over three decades, it is only restricted to salt rock or aquifers for air tightness reason. In this paper, the technical feasibility of utilizing hard rock for CAES is investigated by using a coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) modelling of nonisothermal gas flow. Governing equations are derived from the rules of energy balance, mass balance, and static equilibrium. Cyclic volumetric mass source and heat source models are applied to simulate the gas injection and production. Evaluation is carried out for intact rock and rock with discrete crack, respectively. In both cases, the heat and pressure losses using air mass control and supplementary air injection are compared.}, subject = {Energiespeicherung}, language = {en} } @article{ZhuangHuangRabczuketal., author = {Zhuang, Xiaoying and Huang, Runqiu and Rabczuk, Timon and Liang, C.}, title = {A coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical model of jointed hard rock for compressed air energy storage}, series = {Mathematical Problems in Engineering}, journal = {Mathematical Problems in Engineering}, abstract = {A coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical model of jointed hard rock for compressed air energy storage}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{VoelskeGollubHagenetal., author = {V{\"o}lske, Michael and Gollub, Tim and Hagen, Matthias and Stein, Benno}, title = {A keyquery-based classification system for CORE}, series = {D-Lib Magazine}, journal = {D-Lib Magazine}, doi = {10.1045/november14-voelske}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20170426-31662}, abstract = {We apply keyquery-based taxonomy composition to compute a classification system for the CORE dataset, a shared crawl of about 850,000 scientific papers.

In a second phase, a hierarchical clustering is formed from the keyqueries within an iterative process.

An experimental study of the effect of RHA blending on workability, strength and durability of high performance fine-grained concrete (HPFGC) is presented. The results show that the addition of RHA to HPFGC improved significantly compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and chloride penetration resistance. Interestingly, the ratio of compressive strength to splitting tensile strength of HPFGC was lower than that of ordinary concrete, especially for the concrete made with 20 \% RHA. Compressive strength and splitting tensile strength of HPFGC containing RHA was similar and slightly higher, respectively, than for HPFGC containing SF.

The ghost atom positions are interpolated from the coarse scale solution and enforced as boundary conditions on the fine scale. The fine scale region is adaptively enlarged as the crack propagates and the region behind the crack tip is adaptively coarsened. An energy criterion is used to detect the crack tip location. The triangular lattice in the fine scale region corresponds to the lattice structure of the (111) plane of an FCC crystal. The Lennard-Jones potential is used to model the atom-atom interactions. The method is implemented in two dimensions.

Temperature, strain and ambient vibration records are analysed and two main directions of investigation are pursued. The first and the most demanding task is to develop processing routines able to extract modal parameters from ambient vibration measurements. For this purpose, reliable experimental models are achieved on the basis of a stochastic system identification(SSI) procedure. A fully automated algorithm based on a three-stage clustering is implemented to perform a modal parameter estimation for every single measurement. After selecting a baseline of modal parameters, the evolution of eigenfrequencies is studied and correlated to environmental and operational factors. The second aspect deals with the structural response to passing trains. Corresponding triggered records of strain and temperature are processed and their assessment is accomplished using the average strains induced by each train as the reference parameter. Three influences due to speed, temperature and loads are distinguished and treated individually. An attempt to estimate the maximum response variation due to each factor is also carried out.}, subject = {Messtechnik}, language = {en} } @article{MotraHildebrandDimmigOsburg, author = {Motra, Hem Bahadur and Hildebrand, J{\"o}rg and Dimmig-Osburg, Andrea}, title = {Assessment of strain measurement techniques to characterise mechanical properties of structural steel}, series = {Engineering Science and Technology, an International Journal}, journal = {Engineering Science and Technology, an International Journal}, doi = {10.1016/j.jestch.2014.07.006}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20170425-31540}, pages = {260 -- 269}, abstract = {Strain measurement is important in mechanical testing. A wide variety of techniques exists for measuring strain in the tensile test; namely the strain gauge, extensometer, stress and strain determined by machine crosshead motion, Geometric Moire technique, optical strain measurement techniques and others. Each technique has its own advantages and disadvantages. The purpose of this study is to quantitatively compare the strain measurement techniques. To carry out the tensile test experiments for S 235, sixty samples were cut from the web of the I-profile in longitudinal and transverse directions in four different dimensions. The geometry of samples are analysed by 3D scanner and vernier caliper. In addition, the strain values were determined by using strain gauge, extensometer and machine crosshead motion. Three techniques of strain measurement are compared in quantitative manner based on the calculation of mechanical properties (modulus of elasticity, yield strength, tensile strength, percentage elongation at maximum force) of structural steel. A statistical information was used for evaluating the results. It is seen that the extensometer and strain gauge provided reliable data, however the extensometer offers several advantages over the strain gauge and crosshead motion for testing structural steel in tension.

The recent research on application of BIM in scheduling has focused on quantity take-off, duration estimation for individual trades, schedule visualization, and clash detection. Several experiments indicated that the lack of detailed planning causes about 30\% non-productive time and stacking of trades. However, detailed planning still has not been implemented in practice despite receiving a lot of interest from researchers. The reason is associated with the huge amount and complexity of input data. In order to create a detailed planning, it is time consuming to manually decompose activities, collect and calculate the detailed information in relevant. Moreover, the coordination of detailed activities requires much effort for dealing with their complex constraints. This dissertation aims to support the generation of detailed schedules from a rough schedule.
