Closed-form solution for a cantilevered sectorial plate subjected to a tip concentrated force
Title
Closed-form solution for a cantilevered sectorial plate subjected to a tip concentrated force
Author
Smelser, Ronald E., Christy, Carl W., Weggel, David C.
Subjects--Topical
Bending moment, Plates (Engineering)--Mathematical models
Description
A closed-form solution is presented for a cantilevered sectorial plate subjected to a tip concentrated force. Since the particular solution for this problem was not found in the literature, it is derived here. Deflections from the total solution (...

Field-observed cracking of paired lightweight and normalweight concrete bridge decks
Author
Cavalline, Tara L., Calamusa, Jeremy T., Kitts, Amy M., Tempest, Brett Q.
Subjects--Topical
Lightweight concrete, Bridges--Design and construction, Concrete--Cracking
Description
Research has suggested that conventional lightweight concrete can offer durability advantages due to reduced cracking tendency. Although a number of publications exist providing the results of laboratory-based studies on the durability performance...
