Item type:Publication, Glass - steel hybrid elements under four point bending test(Centre for Evaluation in Education and Science (CEON/CEES), 2015); ; ; Problems evolving from the brittleness of structural glass result in need of innovative solutions which will improve the post-breakage behavior of the elements in the structure. As the need of the glass performance gets higher, the fully tempered glass gets in the focus and its usage becomes greater. But although this type of glass gives great performance with its tensile strength and deflection capacity, it has no residual strength. Due to its breakage pattern into small pieces the collapse of the element may be instant even in laminated glass elements. Thus, increasing the post breakage behavior is crucial in order to keep the integrity of the tempered glass element. This can be done either by changing the inter layer properties, or including kind of reinforcement in the element structure. This paper presents experimental testing of the performances of steel plate reinforced hybrid glass element under four point bending test. As a result, it shows the improvement in mechanical behavior of the described hybrid structure concept compared to a monolithic glass element with same dimensions, by means of stress distribution and reinforcement capacity. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Modeling of single-fillet lap joint in Solidworks Simulation(Centre for Evaluation in Education and Science (CEON/CEES), 2016); ; The aim of the work presented in this paper is to show the applicability of Solidworks Simulation module for calculation of welded structural joints. The presentation is performed through a simple model of axially loaded single-fillet lap joint. Solidworks Simulation offers several options for FEM analysis of welded joints. All reasonable options are exploited and their results are compared in this paper. The reference values are used to validate the results of FEM analysis. They are calculated based on formulas described in Eurocode 3 part 8 which refer to design resistance of fillet welds. FEM analysis is conducted in latest version of Solidworks Simulation 2015 and older version 2012. Results obtained in both versions differ from each other under same starting conditions. Finally, the paper provides recommendations for reliability of the Solidworks Simulation to be used as design tool for calculating welded joints.
