de Koning, A.U. (author)In the present report a simple analytical model for the "behaviour of a centrally cracked strip is proposed. Formulae for computation of compliance, crack opening displacement and effective crack extension force are derived. The model is based on the classical solution for a crack infinite sheet under uniaxial tension. The effect of finite...report 1979

Sevenhuijsen, P.J. (author)The measurement of deformations remains an important discipline for the development and evaluation of structures. The report gives a survey of the most important measurement methods now available. Aspects of light which are vital for the understanding of optical methods are treated because these methods become more and more important. The...report 1982

de Koning, A.U. (author)In this report formulas are derived for a description of the deformation and stress fields near holes expanded by cold working. The results are compared with values obtained experimentally and calculated using the finite element method. The model of the material includes linear hardening and a yielding behaviour according to Tresca's criterion....report 1982

van Rijn, J.C.N. (author)The stress distribution in the vicinity of a notch is investigated as a first step towards a more fundamental understanding of the blunt notch behaviour of fibre metal laminates. The applicability of several analytical methodologies for determination of the stress distribution in the vicinity of a notch in a finite width plate is assessed in...report 1994

Leendertz, J.S. (author), Kolstein, M.H. (author)This article describes the behaviour and stress analysis of the crossbeams in orthotropic steel decks with continuous trapezoidal closed stiffeners. The trough stiffener to crossbeam connections, with or without cope holes, influence the behaviour of the crossbeam. The effects can be transferred to effective properties of a beam without cut outs...journal article 1995

de Koning, A.U. (author), Henriksen, T.K. (author)Probably one of the most challenging problems in fracture mechanics is related to its application to fastener and joints. By nature, not only the quality such as material, manufacturing and mounting processes, of the fasteners are playing a role, but also the stiffness, surface conditions and geometry of the parts are to be considered. Moreover,...report 1996

Gillissen, J.J.J. (author), Boersma, B.J. (author), Mortensen, P.H. (author), Andersson, H.I. (author)Turbulent fiber suspension channel flow is studied using direct numerical simulation. The effect of the fibers on the fluid mechanics is governed by a stress tensor, involving the distribution of fiber position and orientation. Properties of this function in channel flow are studied by computing the trajectories and orientations of individual...journal article 2007

Saleh, M. (author), Saeedifar, M. (author), Zarouchas, D. (author), Teixeira De Freitas, S. (author)Mechanics of double-lap Steel-to-CFRP adhesively-bonded joints loaded in tension are investigated experimentally using Digital Image Correlation (DIC) and Acoustic Emission (AE), analytically using a one-dimensional closed-form solution and numerically with Finite Element analysis. The double-lap bi-material joints are fabricated of a steel core...journal article 2020

Pavlovic, M. (author), Christoforidou, A. (author), Keller, Thomas (author)Challenges of reliable prediction of resistance of bonded joints lie in the complexity of stress concentrations, multiple crack paths, mode-mixity and sudden crack propagation. The new Technical Specification for Design of fibre-polymer composite structures (TS) is bridging this gap by providing comprehensive sets of design recommendations and...conference paper 2022

Yu, Taoyi (author), Khaloian, Ani (author), van de Kuilen, J.W.G. (author)Timber is one of the most widely applied engineering materials due to its favorable physical and mechanical characteristics. Nevertheless, over the service life, the combination of mechanical load and varying environmental conditions can have a critical influence on the mechanical response of timber structures, considering especially the...journal article 2022

(author), Fischer, Claas (author), Ehlers, Sören (author)Fixed offshore wind turbines are increasingly developed for high latitude areas where not only wind and wave loads need to be considered, but also moving sea ice. Current structural design rules do not adequately consider the effect of ice loading on fatigue life, due to missing studies on fatigue strength of welded joints under combined wind,...conference paper 2022

Pascoe, J.A. (author)This article presents an overview of methods for analyzing the facture and failure of adhesives. Special attention is given to stress analysis in adhesive bonds, as the difficulty of performing an accurate stress analysis is a major limitation of many failure analysis methods. The article also covers the effect of manufacturing and...book chapter 2023
