The present study investigated the strain response of a distributed optical fiber sensor (DOFS) sealed in a groove at the surface of a concrete structure using a polymer adhesive and aimed to identify optimal conditions for crack monitoring. A finite element model (FEM) was first proposed to describe the strain transfer process between the host str...

Degenerative Cervical Myelopathy results from spine degenerations narrowing the spinal canal and inducing cord compressions. Prognosis is challenging. This study aimed at simulating typical spinal cord compressions observed in patients with a realistic model to better understand pathogenesis for later prediction of patients' evolution.

Masonry structures are often characterized by complex, non-planar geometries. This is also the case for historical and monumental structures. Here we investigate the dynamic behaviour of non-standard, curvilinear masonry geometries, such as vaults, subjected to blast loading. We use the Discrete Element Method (DEM) for modelling the dynamic struct...

This paper proposes a new finite-element modelling of a recent layerwise model for multilayered plates. This layerwise model is built from a specific 3D stress-field expansion along the thickness direction and involves, in particular, interlaminar transverse shear and out-of-plane stresses as generalized stresses. Its main feature is that 3D equili...

The Wave Finite Element (WFE) method is based on wave propagation in periodic structures. Starting from a Finite Element (FE) analysis of a single period (sub-structure) we are able to derive the dynamic behaviour relative to the entire structure. Thanks to a reduction in the degrees of freedom (dofs) of the system and by decomposing the response o...

The calculation of wave radiation in exterior domains by finite element methods can lead to large computations even if we consider linear problems in the frequency domain as in this article. Here, we study two-dimensional acoustics described by the Helmholtz equation. A large part of the exterior domain is meshed and this computational domain is tr...

Rammed earth (RE) is a sustainable material which is made by compacting the soil in a formwork. The earthquake performance of RE structures is an important topic, however the out-of-plane seismic behavior of RE structures has not been thoroughly investigated in the literature. The objective of the present paper is to study the out-of-plane seismic ...

This work is the product of a three-year collaboration between Laboratoire Navier and the civil engineering ?rm Strains. It has been shaped by following the needs of the construction industry for a more reliable, e°cient, robust and easy-to-use structural analysis software. Departing from traditional numerical methods used in non-linear ?nite-eleme...
