This paper presents the experimental and numerical analysis of an innovative plate girder geometry with variable web thicknesses. An idea proposed in this research is to increase the stability of the girder web by increasing its thickness in the compressed zone. This solution can replace commonly used longitudinal stiffeners which are designed to prevent web local loss of stability. Moreover, such an innovative approach requires...

W pracy przedstawiono wyniki badań pękania próbek w warunkach asymetrycznego czteropunktowego zginania. Próbki do badań wykonano ze stopu aluminium 2024-T351. Badania doświadczalne obejmowały identyfikację właściwości mechanicznych materiału poprzez przeprowadzenie próby rozciągania i ściskania na próbkach osiowosymetrycznych. Następnie przeprowadzono badania pękania dla płaskich próbek z karbami. Wszystkie próbki do badań miały...

This study experimentally analyses the impact of marine immersed corrosion degradation on the compressive strength of the stiffened plates where the lower degradation levels were considered. The corrosion degradation test was accelerated by controlling the natural corrosion environmental factors, avoiding applying an electric current. Different groups of corrosion degradation levels and initial plate thicknesses were investigated....

Archaeological traditional lime mortars are susceptible to many environmental conditions such as the impact of water (rain, humidity, groundwater, etc.), variation of temperatures' degrees, wind and/or pollution. Accordingly, this research aims to provide newly assessed multifunctional Nano-coating for the purpose of archaeological lime mortar protection. For this, the study combined physicochemical and mechanical characterizations...

The dataset titled EH36 steel for shipbuilding (plate thicnkness 50mm) - CMOD - force record, a0/W = 0.6 contains CMOD (Crack Mouth Opening Displacement) - Force record which is the base for evaluation of fracture toughness of structural steel. Bend specimens witch Bx2B section (B= 50mm), and relative initial crack length a0 / W = 0.60 were used. The test was carried out at ambient temperature in accordance to ISO 12135 standard....
