Abstract:

The main idea of this paper is to propose a nondestructive evaluation (NDE) system for two types of damages, core cracking and skin/core debonding, in fiberglass/foam core sandwich structures based on the inverse eigensensitivity-based finite element model updating using the modal test results, and the artificial neural networks. First, the modal testing was conducted on the fabricated fiberglass/foam core sandwich specimens, in the intact and damaged states, and the natural frequencies were extracted. Finite element modeling and inverse eigensensitivity-based model updating of the intact and

Abstract:

Abstract Civil liability for a lost chance occurs when a tortious action changes the probabilities of the outcomes that can be obtained by the victim. In such situations, the most commonly referenced rule of quantification is that of proportional damages. Based on this rule, the literature has proposed several formulae for quantifying damages. However, these formulae have limited applicability. For instance, they are inappropriate when the victim’s chance has more than two possible outcomes or when the victim can make a choice which would influence her outcomes. Also, the formulae have seldom

Abstract:

Intensive research efforts have been spent on vibration-based structural condition monitoring since structural vibration parameters are closely related to structural stiffness which can be used to identify, locate and quantify structural damage. This makes the vibration-based methods quite attractive for structural condition monitoring. This paper proposes to use strain mode for structural damage identification. A new index named Breach Threshold Value of Damage Levels (BTVDL) is proposed to quantify damage. To demonstrate the proposed method, responses of a circular arch with single and multi

Abstract:

The seismic load can bring serious damages to the coupling beams and frame beams in the frame-shear wall structure. Such damages can hardly be repaired, causing functional loss to the structure. One of the best ways to consume seismic energy input, rationalize the damage mode of structure, and prevent serious damages to the main components is to install metal rubber (MR) dampers materials in the frame-shear wall structure. Based on Park and Ang’s damage model, this paper presents pertinent formulas of damage indexes, and uses them to quantify the failure mode. Then, the correspondence was esta

Abstract:

Mode shapes estimated from the vehicle responses are normally used to detect bridge damage efficiently for their high spatial resolution. However, an updated baseline finite element model (FEM) is normally required to quantify damages for such an approach. A two-stage damage detection procedure is presented for bridges by utilizing the mode shape estimated from a moving vehicle. Damage locations are first determined through a damage localization index (DLI) defined by regional mode shape curvature (RMSC). Then the relationship between the damage extents and the RMSC changes is investigated by

Quantification of harm is regarded as one of the most significant obstacles for the full compensation of harm and development of private enforcement within the European Union, including CEE Member States. Consequently, the Damages Directive establishes general rules and requirements for the quantification of harm, such as a rebuttable presumption of harm in case of cartels, the power of national courts to estimate harm as well as others, which closely interact with the principle of full compensation emphasized by the case-law of the European Union and directly established in the Damages Direct

Materials used for composite reinforcements usually have high mechanical performances which are linked to a very sensitive and brittle behaviour to friction. The weaving process applied to delicate yarns, like glass, carbon and some other technical yarns, generate damages which tend to reduce the performances of the final composite. Shedding may be a major weaving stage for the generation of yarn damages. Based on a specific weaving pattern, it was observed that different shedding configurations could influence yarn damages at the shedding step. The specificity of the motorized Jacquard device

The deflection of the beam estimated from modal flexibility matrix (MFM) indirectly is used in structural damage detection due to the fact that deflection is less sensitive to experimental noise than the element in MFM.

Abstract:

This article makes an original contribution to the literature on the developing area of private enforcement of EU competition law. It delivers a significant, rigorous and comprehensive analysis of the transposition across a broad selection of Member States (MS) of a major EU Directive introduced with the aim of harmonizing and facilitating competition law damages actions across the EU. It looks at the implementation of the Directive 2014/104/EU in sixteen MS. It analyses the solutions followed by each of those MS in addressing the various issues raised by the Directive (liability and compensat

Abstract:

The areas planted with avocado in Colombia have increased to position this fruit in international markets. To achieve this goal, the offered fruits need to meet optimal production standards. The aim of this study was to identify the main physiopathologies and damages that may cause the rejection of avocado cv. Hass fruits for export purposes during pre-harvest, harvest, and processing in packinghouses, and quantify the economic impact of said exclusion criteria. Typological characterization and quantification of damages that may cause fruit rejection were performed at the laboratory, field, an

ABSTRACTThis study investigates the mechanisms of UV-A (315 to 400 nm) photocatalysis with titanium dioxide (TiO2) applied to the degradation ofEscherichia coliand their effects on two key cellular components: lipids and proteins. The impact of TiO2photocatalysis onE. colisurvival was monitored by counting on agar plate and by assessing lipid peroxidation and performing proteomic analysis. We observed through malondialdehyde quantification that lipid peroxidation occurred during the photocatalytic process, and the addition of superoxide dismutase, which acts as a scavenger of the superoxide an

Abstract:

AbstractThis paper presents a novel method for rapidly addressing the earthquake-induced damage identification task in historic masonry towers. The proposed method, termed DORI, combines operational modal analysis (OMA), FE modeling, rapid surrogate modeling (SM) and non-linear Incremental dynamic analysis (IDA). While OMA-based Structural Health Monitoring methods using statistical pattern recognition are known to allow the detection of small structural damages due to earthquakes, even far-field ones of moderate intensity, the combination of SM and IDA-based methods for damage localization an

Abstract:

A popular method to conduct structural health monitoring is the spatio-temporal study of vibration signatures, where vibration properties are extracted from collected vibration responses. In this article, a novel methodology for extracting and analyzing distributed acceleration data for condition assessment of bridge girders is proposed. Three different techniques are fused, enabling robust damage detection, localization, and quantification. First, stochastic subspace identification is used as an output-only method to extract modal properties of the monitored structure. Second, a reduced-order

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Response actions and mitigation measures, undertaken at the time of a spill specifically to protect seafood resources can ultimately influence the duration, magnitude and extent of impacts. Understanding if and why particular measures were successful (or not) in minimising or eliminating damages to a particular fishery or mariculture installation is important for the seafood sector to use, either in planning, or when faced with making a choice as to what measures may be best to protect their resource. This paper reviews small-scale (in terms of volume spilled) cases in which ITOPF has
