Qian, Zhiwei (author), Schlangen, E. (author), Ye, G. (author), van Breugel, K. (author)Multiscale modeling for cement-based materials, such as concrete, is a relatively young subject, but there are already a number of different approaches to study different aspects of these classical materials. In this paper, the parameter-passing multiscale modeling scheme is established and applied to address the multiscale modeling problem...journal article 2017

Zhao, T. (author), Palardy, G. (author), Villegas, I.F. (author), Benedictus, R. (author)Ultrasonic welding is a promising assembly technique for thermoplastic composites and it is well-suited for spot welding. In this study, two typical welding process control strategies, i.e. displacement-controlled and energy-controlled welding, were selected to manufacture spot-welded joints. The influence of different boundary conditions,...conference paper 2017

Zhao, T. (author), Palardy, G. (author), Rans, C.D. (author), Benedictus, R. (author)Ultrasonic welding is a promising assembly technique for thermoplastic composites and it is well-suited for spot welding. In this paper, the in-plane and out-of-plane mechanical behaviour of ultrasonically spot-welded and mechanically fastened joints are investigated by double-lap shear and pull-through tests, respectively. Special attention was...conference paper 2016
