Postfire Safety Investigation on Prestressed RPC Beams after Exposure to Elevated Temperatures by Yan Kai, Zhang Yao, Cai Hao, Fan Lili, Xin Zhang

“…The load-deflection curves, crack distributions and developments, and strain variations are obtained, in addition to the damage mechanism and failure mode of the beams. The results show that the load-deflection curve of the prestressed RPC beam after fire has obviously three polylines, and the deflection points are where the cracks expand and the tendons yield. …”

Deformation and Rupture of Thin Steel Plates due to Cumulative Loading from Underwater Shock and Bubble Collapse by Julian J. Lee, Malcolm J. Smith, James Huang, Geoffrey T. Paulgaard

“…As a result, four main regimes of loading and damage were identified: a) holing/petaling due to shock loading, b) edge tearing due to shock loading only, c) edge tearing due to the cumulative loading from shock and bubble collapse, and d) large deformation due to shock and bubble collapse loading. The damage mechanisms and dynamic response of the plates were measured using dynamic displacement sensors, pressure gauges, and high-speed video. …”
