13. Effectiveness of track stiffness reduction in attenuation of metro induced vibrations received by historical buildings
Abstract Preservation of historical buildings is a main challenge in civil engineering field. One of the main concerns in this regard is metro induced vibration received by historical structures. There is a need to evaluate effectiveness of vibration mitigation measures in preservation of monumental buildings. The most widely used method of reducing metro vi

14. Damage evaluation and failure mechanism analysis of steel tube confined reinforced-concrete columns by acoustic emission technology
Abstract As a new kind of composite structures and its advantages, the using of steel tube confined reinforced concrete (STCRC) columns have received increasing attention in civil engineering. Acoustic emission (AE) technique is applied to monitor the damage process of STCRC columns during an uniaxial compression test. The aim of this study is to investigate

15. Nondestructive ultrasonic testing in rod structure with a novel numerical Laplace based wavelet finite element method
Abstract Rod structure has been widely used in aerospace engineering and civil engineering. Nondestructive testing is a very important method applied to detect unseen flaws in structures, ultrasonic wave nondestructive testing has been used in many areas. Finite Element Method is one of the most widely used numerical methods but would have a high cost when d

19. Recent Developments in Damage Identification of Structures Using Data Mining
Abstract Civil structures are usually prone to damage during their service life and it leads them to loss their serviceability and safety. Thus, damage assessment can guarantee the integrity of structures. As a result, a structural damage detection approach including two main components, a set of accelerometers to record the response data and a data mining (

20. Redundancy Factors for the Seismic Design of Ductile Reinforced Concrete Chevron Braced Frames
Abstract In this paper the authors summarize the results of a study devoted to assess, using nonlinear static analyses, the impact of increasing the structural redundancy in ductile moment-resisting reinforced concrete concentric braced frames structures (RC-MRCBFs). Among the studied variables were the number of stories and the number of bays. Results obtai

22. Crashworthiness Analysis and Evaluation of Fuselage Section with Sub-floor Composite Sinusoidal Specimens
Abstract Crashworthiness is one of the main concerns in civil aviation safety particularly with regard to the increasing ratio of carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) in aircraft primary structures. In order to generate dates for model validations, the mechanical properties of T700/3234 were obtained by material performance tests, and energy-absorbing resu

23. A limitação da responsabilidade das sociedades empresárias agrupadas em redes de cooperação empresarial: as associações de interesse econômico do estado do Rio Grande do Sul
There is a new associative mechanism in Brazil referred to as a Business Cooperation Network (BCN) that has come to be utilized more and more frequently. BCNs consist of a clustering of small or middle-sized business entities that come together with the objective of the joint development of some activity that are common to all of them. This is achieved throu
