Sentence examples for corner strengthening from inspiring English sources

It is found that increasing the amount of corner strengthening leads to an increase in the confinement effectiveness of CFFTs and results in a more uniform confining pressure distribution along specimen cross-section.

This paper presents the results of an experimental study that investigated the application of a corner strengthening technique to square and rectangular concrete-filled fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) tubes (CFFTs).

It is also found that corner strengthening provides a more significant improvement in the compressive behavior of CFFTs with lower original confinement effectiveness caused by a smaller corner radius or a larger aspect ratio.

The results indicate that the compressive behavior of square and rectangular CFFTs can be improved through corner strengthening, which significantly reduces or completely eliminates temporary post-peak strength softening observed in some CFFTs.

The positive contribution of inclined reinforcing bars, placed at opening corners, in strengthening the in-plane capacity of the slab panels with opening, is effectively demonstrated by use of the FE model.

Great art is often due in part to the time an artist spends talking to himself in the corner, finding his voice and strengthening it.

The results also indicate that the premature FRP rupture at corners due to stress concentrations can be prevented through sufficient strengthening of the specimen corners.

Strengthening pluralism in all corners of the globe, he said, "is critical to the development of peace and humankind in the 21st century".

This research investigates the effectiveness of strengthening flat slab to column corner connections by using carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets.

In fact, many other strengthening layouts of FRPs, in particular, at the corners between columns and beams were investigated and showed good retrofit effect (Del Vecchio et al. 2014; Mahmoud et al. 2014).

Strengthening the International Financial Regulatory System.
