• Development and implementation of coupling method for CFD-FEM analyses of steel structures in natural fire 

  Malendowski, Michał; Glema, Adam (Procedia Engineering, 2017)

  The work aims in the problem of numerical analysis of steel structures under natural fire. The emphasis is put on the proper calculation of temperature field inside the structural members and, in particular, the non-uniform ...

• Some causes of reinforced concrete silos failure 

  Maj, Marek (Procedia Engineering, 2017)

  This paper presents some problems connected with causes of reinforced concrete silos failure. Reinforced concrete silos and other shells were built for decades. Vitality i.e. durability of cracked silo walls are one of ...

• Influence of calcite particles on mechanical properties of grouted sandy soil 

  Mackevičius, Rimantas; Sližytė, Danutė; Zhilkina, Tatyana (Procedia Engineering, 2017)

  Chemical and mineralogical content of sands has very high influence on uniaxial compressed strength of grouted soils. In this paper influence of calcite particles in sand on mechanical properties of grouted with ...

• Mechanical behavior of polymeric synthetic fiber in the concrete 

  Macanovskis, Arturs; Krasnikovs, Andrejs; Kononova, Olga; Lukasenoks, Arturs (Procedia Engineering, 2017)

  Results of damage and failure investigation in a concrete reinforced by short polymeric fibers are reported in the present work. Two types of fibers were used in experiments 30mm and 6mm long. Pull-out experiments were ...

• Fire resistance of unprotected steel beams – comparison between fire tests and calculation models 

  Łukomski, Marek; Turkowski, Piotr; Roszkowski, Paweł; Papis, Bartłomiej (Procedia Engineering, 2017)

  The paper presents results of fire resistance test of unprotected steel beams, compared with simple and advanced calculation models given in EN 1993-1-2. The comparison shows differences between temperatures recorded ...
