16. Light-weighting Methodology in Rail Vehicle Design through Introduction of Load Carrying Sandwich Panels
Abstract : Lightweight design in rail vehicles has been important for quite some time. Structures have been optimised to fulfill their purpose and cut unnecessary weight to reach allowable axle loads. Classically this is done by using steel, thin-walled structures, throughout the car body, or, alternatively, power-pressed aluminum profiles. READ MORE

17. Steel Fibres in Reinforced Concrete Structures of Complex Shapes: Structural Behaviour and Design Perspectives
Abstract : In concrete structures of complex geometries, the formability of concrete is an asset.However, complex geometries introduce time-demanding form and reinforcement works. READ MORE

18. Plastic Shrinkage Cracking In Concrete : Mitigation and Modelling
Abstract : Early-age (up to 24 hours after casting) cracking may become problematic in any concrete structure. It can have a negative influence on the aesthetics of the concrete structure, as well as decreasing the durability and serviceability by facilitating the ingress of harmful materials into the concrete bulk.

19. Structural Effects of Reinforcement Corrosion in Concrete Structures
Abstract : Reinforcement corrosion is a common cause of deterioration in reinforced concrete.The corrosion mechanism involved and the consequent structural behaviour ofdeteriorated reinforced concrete members have been studied by several researchers. READ MORE

20. Natural corrosion in reinforced concrete structures
Abstract : Among the threats to the durability of concrete structures, corrosion of the reinforcement bars is undoubtedly the most common one. Corrosion damages impair safety and durability of infrastructure, and assessment of the safety is challenging due to the complex nature of the corrosion process. READ MORE
