Su, H.Z. (author), Wen, Z. (author), Yang, M. (author)The elastic-plastic mechanical behaviour is a typical characteristic of rock mass. The load action will bring on the local destruction, large deformation, even whole failure of rock mass with the discontinuous mediums (e.g. joint, crack and fault). It is a coupling process of the continuous deformation and the discontinuous deformation. The...conference paper 2015

Kanasaki, K. (author), Tanaka, H. (author)Tugite and Shiguchi are traditional architectural techniques of Japan, which connect materials without the use of nails or adhesives. Tugite is a technique to connect materials to augment the lack of length of available materials. Shiguchi is a technique to connect materials at an angle. With a firm basis in this tradition and the craftsmanship...conference paper 2013

Luterbacher, R. (author), Bond, I.P. (author), Trask, R.S. (author)Locally stiffened or ‘stringer’ - skin composite structures are extensively used for lightweight applications in the aerospace industry. Due to localised stiffening, stress concentrations arise which can initiate damage e.g. debonding or delamination, within the composite structure. Critically, this damage can propagate under fatigue loading...conference paper 2013
