Rheological redistribution of stresses in multi-layered beams
Journal Title: Civil and Environmental Engineering Reports - Year 2010, Vol 1, Issue 5
Abstract
The paper concerns problems of rheology in wooden structures reinforced with polyester-glass composite bars glued to them by means of epoxy resin. A theoretical model of the behaviour of a multi-layered beam is presented. The component materials of this beam are described with equations for linear viscoelastic media (five- and sixparameter rheological models). The Bernoulli’s plane sections hypothesis has been assumed and this assumption includes the statement that the particular layers are perfectly composed with no allowances for creep. Equations for stresses have been derived. To verify the elaborated theoretical model, a program of experimental tests has been prepared. The performed calculations have revealedthat the theoretical model is consistent with the experimental data. The redistribution of stresses occurs in the beam, also when global loads are constant in time.<br/><br/>

STABILITY OF SELECTED PAHs IN SEWAGE SLUDGE
The aim of the investigations was to estimate the half-life of selected PAHs in sewage sludge. Five hydrocarbons selected from 16 PAHs- EPA were chosen. In this study, the quantity changes in the concentration 3- and 4-r...
A NUMERICAL ANALYSIS OF THE RESISTANCE AND STIFFNESS OF THE ALUMINIUM AND CONCRETE COMPOSITE BEAM
In this paper a numerical analysis of the resistance and stiffness of the aluminium and concrete composite beam is presented. Composite aluminium and concrete structures are quite new and they have not been thoroughly te...
BENDING RESISTANCE OF METAL-CONCRETE COMPOSITE BEAMS IN A NATURAL FIRE
In this paper, the bending resistance of three metal-concrete composite beams was compared in real car fires in an open car park. Steel and concrete composite beams are often used for the construction of ceilings in mult...
THE EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF THE EFFECTIVE THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY OF BUNDLES OF RECTANGULAR STEEL SECTIONS
Bundles of rectangular steel sections are examples of the porous charge. Due to the voids within the sections, this type of charge is characterized by porosity even exceeding 85%. This makes the thermal properties of the...
