Due to the complex interactions between the ground, the driving machine, the lining tube and the built environment, the accurate assignment of in-situ system parameters for numerical simulation in mechanized tunneling is always subject to tremendous difficulties. However, the more accurate these parameters are, the more applicable the responses gained from computations will be. In particular, if the entire length of the tunnel lining is examined, then, the appropriate selection of various kinds of ground parameters is accountable for the success of a tunnel project and, more importantly, will prevent potential casualties. In this context, methods of system identification for the adaptation of numerical simulation of ground models are presented. Hereby, both deterministic and probabilistic approaches are considered for typical scenarios representing notable variations or changes in the ground model.
Die besondere Aggressivität von hochkonzentrierten Magnesiumsulfatlösungen bei Einwirkung auf Beton ist seit vielen Jahrzehnten bekannt. Neben dem Sulfat greift zusätzlich auch das Magnesium den Zementstein an. Bei hohen Lösungskonzentrationen nimmt der Magnesiumangriff gegenüber dem Sulfatangriff sogar eine dominante Rolle ein. Magnesiumgehalte unter 300 mg/l im Grundwasser gelten allerdings bislang als nicht angreifend. In Auslagerungs- und Laborversuchen wurde jedoch festgestellt, dass auch bei praxisrelevanten Magnesium- (<300 mg/l) und Sulfatgehalten (1.500 mg/l) das Magnesium zu einer deutlichen Verschärfung des Sulfatangriffes bei niedrigen Temperaturen führte. Diese Verschärfung trat bei Mörteln und Betonen auf, bei denen der erhöhte Sulfatwiderstand durch einen teilweisen Zementersatz mit 20 % Flugasche zu einem CEM II/A-LL erreicht werden sollte, gemäß der Flugascheregelung nach EN 206-1/DIN 1045-2.
Bei einem teilweisen Zementersatz durch 30 % Flugasche konnte auch in magnesiumhaltigen Sulfatlösungen eine deutliche Verbesserung des Sulfatwiderstandes erreicht werden. Mörtel mit HS-Zement als Bindemittel wiesen keinerlei Schäden auf. Schadensverursachend war eine Kombination mehrerer Einflüsse. Zum einen wurde der Sulfatwiderstand des Zement-Flugasche-Systems durch die unzureichende Reaktion der Flugasche infolge der niedrigen Lagerungstemperatur geschwächt. Zum anderen konnte durch die Einwirkung des Magnesiums in der Randzone vermutlich eine Destabilisierung der C-S-H-Phasen erfolgen, wodurch die Thaumasitbildung an dieser Stelle forciert wurde. Zusätzlich wurde durch den Portlanditverbrauch und die pH-Wert-Absenkung in der Randzone die puzzolanische Reaktion der Flugasche behindert.
The aim of this paper we discuss explicit series constructions for the fundamental solution of the Helmholtz operator on some important examples non-orientable conformally at manifolds. In the context of this paper we focus on higher dimensional generalizations of the Klein bottle which in turn generalize higher dimensional Möbius strips that we discussed in preceding works. We discuss some basic properties of pinor valued solutions to the Helmholtz equation on these manifolds.
In this paper experimental studies and numerical analysis carried out on reinforced concrete beam are partially reported. They aimed to apply the rigid finite element method to calculations for reinforced concrete beams using discrete crack model. Hence rotational ductility resulting from crack occurrence had to be determined. A relationship for calculating it in static equilibrium was proposed. Laboratory experiments proved that dynamic ductility is considerably smaller. Therefore scaling of the empirical parameter was carried out. Consequently a formula for its value depending on reinforcement ratio was obtained.
The topic of structural robustness is covered extensively in current literature in structural engineering. A few evaluation methods already exist. Since these methods are based on different evaluation approaches, the comparison is difficult. But all the approaches have one in common, they need a structural model which represents the structure to be evaluated. As the structural model is the basis of the robustness evaluation, there is the question if the quality of the chosen structural model is influencing the estimation of the structural robustness index. This paper shows what robustness in structural engineering means and gives an overview of existing assessment methods. One is the reliability based robustness index, which uses the reliability indices of a intact and a damaged structure. The second one is the risk based robustness index, which estimates the structural robustness by the usage of direct and indirect risk. The paper describes how these approaches for the evaluation of structural robustness works and which parameters will be used. Since both approaches needs a structural model for the estimation of the structural behavior and the probability of failure, it is necessary to think about the quality of the chosen structural model. Nevertheless, the chosen model has to represent the structure, the input factors and reflect the damages which occur. On the example of two different model qualities, it will be shown, that the model choice is really influencing the quality of the robustness index.
The process of analysis and design in structural engineering requires the consideration of different partial models, for example loading, structural materials, structural elements, and analysis types. The various partial models are combined by coupling several of their components. Due to the large number of available partial models describing similar phenomena, many different model combinations are possible to simulate the same aspects of a structure. The challenging task of an engineer is to select a model combination that ensures a sufficient, reliable prognosis. In order to achieve this reliable prognosis of the overall structural behavior, a high individual quality of the partial models and an adequate coupling of the partial models is required. Several methodologies have been proposed to evaluate the quality of partial models for their intended application, but a detailed study of the coupling quality is still lacking. This paper proposes a new approach to assess the coupling quality of partial models in a quantitative manner. The approach is based on the consistency of the coupled data and applies for uni- and bidirectional coupled partial models. Furthermore, the influence of the coupling quality on the output quantities of the partial models is considered. The functionality of the algorithm and the effect of the coupling quality are demonstrated using an example of coupled partial models in structural engineering.
It is well known that complex quaternion analysis plays an important role in the study of higher order boundary value problems of mathematical physics. Following the ideas given for real quaternion analysis, the paper deals with certain orthogonal decompositions of the complex quaternion Hilbert space into its subspaces of null solutions of Dirac type operator with an arbitrary complex potential. We then apply them to consider related boundary value problems, and to prove the existence and uniqueness as well as the explicit representation formulae of the underlying solutions.
Der Nachbehandlung eines Fahrbahndeckenbetons kommt zum Erzielen eines hohen Frost-Tausalz-Widerstandes der fertigen Betondecke eine besondere Bedeutung zu. Bei der Waschbetonbauweise erfolgt die Nachbehandlung in mehreren Schritten. Eine erste Nachbehandlung gewährleistet den Verdunstungsschutz des Betons bis zum Zeitpunkt des Ausbürstens des verzögerten Oberflächenmörtels. Daran schließt sich die zweite Nachbehandlung an, in der Regel durch Aufsprühen eines flüssigen Nachbehandlungsmittels.
Der zweite Nachbehandlungsschritt ist entscheidend für den Frost-Tausalz-Widerstand der Betondecke. Im Rahmen eines Forschungsprojektes wurde daher untersucht, inwiefern durch eine Optimierung der zweiten Nachbehandlung der Frost-Tausalz-Widerstand von Waschbetonoberflächen erhöht werden kann, insbesondere bei Verwendung hüttensandhaltiger Zemente. Schon durch eine einmalige Nassnachbehandlung wurde eine deutlich höherer Widerstand der Waschbetons gegen Frost-Tausalz-Angriff erzielt.
Monogenic functions play a role in quaternion analysis similarly to that of holomorphic functions in complex analysis. A holomorphic function with nonvanishing complex derivative is a conformal mapping. It is well-known that in Rn+1, n ≥ 2 the set of conformal mappings is restricted to the set of Möbius transformations only and that the Möbius transformations are not monogenic. The paper deals with a locally geometric mapping property of a subset of monogenic functions with nonvanishing hypercomplex derivatives (named M-conformal mappings). It is proved that M-conformal mappings orthogonal to all monogenic constants admit a certain change of solid angles and vice versa, that change can characterize such mappings. In addition, we determine planes in which those mappings behave like conformal mappings in the complex plane.
The Bernstein polynomials are used for important applications in many branches of Mathematics and the other sciences, for instance, approximation theory, probability theory, statistic theory, num- ber theory, the solution of the di¤erential equations, numerical analysis, constructing Bezier curves, q-calculus, operator theory and applications in computer graphics. The Bernstein polynomials are used to construct Bezier curves. Bezier was an engineer with the Renault car company and set out in the early 1960’s to develop a curve formulation which would lend itself to shape design. Engineers may …nd it most understandable to think of Bezier curves in terms of the center of mass of a set of point masses. Therefore, in this paper, we study on generating functions and functional equations for these polynomials. By applying these functions, we investigate interpolation function and many properties of these polynomials.
